That late goal has given Porto hopes of reaching the last sixteen of the Europa League. Home form has been good in the Europa League this season, though they are yet to keep a clean sheet. Bayer Leverkusen are in top form at present and will hope to get on the scoresheet to boost their hopes of making it to the next round. Their away form is good and the bet here is on both teams to score.
All 20 Premier League captains have started a WhatsApp group to coordinate a united response. Paper Round 10:30 - Kyrgios offers fans 'doorstep drop-off' help More heartwarming news, you ask? Sure, Nick Kyrgios will gladly oblige. The Australian tennis star has just posted on his Instagram page promising fans help in these hard times if they need it.
Paper Round’s view: Lamptey’s path to the first team currently appears blocked, with the 19-year-old defender behind Reece James and Cesar Azpilicueta in the pecking order. Selling him now would mean that at least some transfer fee is raised rather than losing him for nothing, so Chelsea may be tempted to cut their losses despite Frank Lampard wishing to keep him at Stamford Bridge.
The i newspaper reported on Wednesday that the PFA had sent an email to all its members asking them not to sign any agreement with their clubs about wage cuts or deferrals without consulting with the union.

Freiburg did good job in Leipzig, with the draw and one point, but they drop against low table Bremen at their ground, and lost 1:0. They are going to Frankfurt, in order to use weak moment of the host, and try to get first three points in this part of the competition.
I have a lot of difficulty understanding that,” Overmars said. We in the Netherlands are not as dependent on television rights incomes as the leagues in Spain, England, Italy and Germany are. I think that they had been put under big pressure by UEFA to continue playing at whatever cost," added the former Barcelona and Arsenal winger.
Derby County are in the run for the title in this league. They are currently on the 4th place in the league but the gap between them and first placed Chelsea is only 2 points. At home Derby County has been excellent in the last weeks with a 3-1-0 record in the last 4 league games scoring 18 goals.
That's why I could picture to have matches behind closed doors", Markus Soder, state premier of Bavaria, said at a recent online talk show hosted by German newspaper Bild. He and Armin Laschet, state premier of North Rhine-Westphalia, have said they think it's conceivable the Bundesliga would restart as soon as 9 May. Soder and Laschet rushed ahead with their statements, knowing the federal government and the 16 state governments meet on 30 April, with the likely outcome that football matches are allowed to be staged in the following months.
Five takeaways from the return of the BundesligaBut, so far, all fears have been proven wrong. Almost all Covid-19 tests from players and staff have come back negative. Dynamo Dresden have been the only team from the Bundesliga or Bundesliga 2 who had to quarantine because of multiple infections. The German Football League (DFL), which is responsible for operating the two divisions, did not panic about the situation in Dresden.
RETRO CORNER Matt Le Tissier. COMING UP Christmas Eve. That's the day before Christmas Day, which is the day before Boxing Day, which is the day with 10 full hours of football as Amazon attempt to, corporate buzz word incoming, disrupt the broadcasting industry. Nick Miller will be here tomorrow to bring details of said disruption.
Fortunately, Mark Warburton's men have turned things around of late, winning each of their last two, beating both Preston and Birmingham by two goals to nil. Such results bode well ahead of a match against a Barnsley side that is struggling for wins.
The Hornets have rediscovered their goal-scoring sting under Nigel Pearson, hitting the net in each of their new manager's first three games at the helm, however we also expect any goal they net this week to be a consolation effort.
Algeria international Bensebaini converted from the spot after Javi Martinez had been sent off for bringing down Marcus Thuram in the box. Bensebaini had levelled on the hour with a header to cancel out Ivan Perisic's 49th-minute lead for the visitors. Gladbach are on 31 points with Bayern, who suffered their second consecutive league loss, dropping to sixth on 24.
Should be 1-0. GOAL! Barcelona 1-0 Real Mallorca (Griezmann). That's cruel on Real Mallorca. Just seconds after they should have scored, they fall behind. Ter Stegen released Griezmann with a long pass up the field and the French attacker showed great composure to dink the finish over Reina. GOAL! Barcelona 2-0 Real Mallorca (Messi).

Barca players consider wage cuts The Daily Mail report that Barcelona's executives are considering slashing the wage bill for both players and staff, but there could be a lifeline as players may step in to protect ancillary staff. The report says: Barcelona directors held a video-link meeting on Friday where the possibility of cutting players' salaries was discussed.
This Saturday's fixture represents an altogether different task though for Paco Lopez' side, who will hardly be relishing their trip to the capital following so many unsuccessful visits to face Los Rojiblancos in the past.
The hosts are bottom of the league after a tough season, which has seen them struggle to match up to the talent at this level. Both sides come into this clash having lost five of their last six games in the league, so they’d both be glad of any result they could get here. However, can either of the pair plug their weak defences?

Aaron Ramsey1,3284332Mesut Ozil1,9925398. I don't think Ozil has been used in the right manner at Arsenal. He can be Marmite - a super, super talent who can frustrate you at times. Arsenal fans know that and they know his vulnerabilities. He's not a player that will appear to put his body on the line, but people underestimate the work rate and confidence to always want to be in possession of the ball.
Hornets have renewed hopeSince Nigel Pearson's appointment as Watford manager on 7 December, the Hornets have taken four points from three fixtures, with their only defeat coming against runaway leaders Liverpool. The display at Anfield, where they were narrowly beaten, showed a level of commitment and endeavour rarely seen under former bosses Javi Gracia and Quique Sanchez Flores this season. And this was very much a continuation of that effort, albeit against a side without the same attacking finesse as the leaders.
Chelsea eye up Icardi after PSG stall Chelsea are reportedly ready to hijack Paris Saint-Germain's summer deal for Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi, who is on loan at the French club. According to the Sun, the west London outfit are monitoring the 27-year-old's situation, with the Ligue 1 leaders having the option to buy Icardi this summer for £54.
Our third-quarter results reflect a partial impact that the pandemic has had on the club but the greater impact will be in the current quarter and likely beyond," said Woodward. Revenues for the quarter fell by 18. The club's debt rose by £124. Baty said the postponement of the Premier League trip to Tottenham on 15 March cost United £4m alone. These are unprecedented times and we must recognise that this crisis will not disappear overnight," said Woodward.
England right-back Kieran Trippier has been charged with misconduct for alleged breaches of the Football Association's betting rules.

Pochettino was the first to go, followed by Emery and then Sánchez Flores - and we know Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Silva are by no means safe. What have they done to deserve this? Not enough, seems to be the answer. I remember the then Bolton manager, Ian Greaves, referring to the third round of the FA Cup as 'sacking time' - and it was in those days. But now no manager's job is safe at any period in the season.
The $650 million, 65,000-seat venue was officially opened last week and was built to be ready for next year's continent-wide European Championship – a tournament Hungary could miss.

Antonio Conte’s side could fall eight points below Juventus who play fourth placed Lazio on Monday. A lot of focus will be on Inter’s defence, as they head to this game. They have just one clean sheet in their last five matches, and that came against relegated SPAL – the weakest team in the league this season.
