The board members' protest deepened chaos at the world's richest club, hit by plunging revenues from the coronavirus crisis, online controversy and protests in the last games before football was suspended. But what exactly is at the heart of the chaos engulfing the La Liga champions? We've taken a look.
Does Ancelotti not fancy the task of revitalising Arsenal? Are his wage demands beyond affordable? Have talks already broken down? The answers to the above are unknown, but having not played for Arsenal in the past, you get the impression Ancelotti misses one key, albeit baffling, requirement of becoming the club’s next head coach.
Aswan is just a newly promoted club in the first league level in Egypt in this start of the season and they are already inside the bottom zone of the league table as after 11 games played they have a record of just 1-4-6 in the league and not really a great home side either with a record of 1-1-3 at home they scored just 5 goals while they conceded no less than 10 goals.
I think Arsenal will win this game easily enough because of their firepower and the fact Southampton are in a mess - they have taken only one point from their past seven league games. But I don't think that victory on Saturday will mean Arsenal's problems are over. They are still far too much of a soft touch at the back. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Sonny's prediction: I'm going with the upset here. Bournemouth v WolvesThis game might seem like it is on the undercard of West Ham versus Spurs or Manchester City against Chelsea but it shouldn't be.
It is the 34th match day of the Leumit League, the 2nd division Israeli football championship, where H. Umm al Fahm who is ranked 10th and collected a total number of 43 points will host Hapoel Ironi Akko who is ranked 12th and collected a total number 36 points. I will go for a draw In the promotion playoffs of the national league here. Akko is not a good team or they are not a bad team either. It is for whom I see value and sincerely I see them more motivated away from home. This should be low scoring game as have been the last 2 direct meetings. The previous meeting ended goalless.
They had to show a degree of patience to find chinks in the purple wall of Hibernian's rearguard and the first time they did that with a sense of purpose, Olivier Ntcham stung the gloves of Ofir Marciano from no more than 10 yards out. Hibs have not won at Celtic Park for almost a decade but served warning of their own intentions as Martin Boyle cut in from the left and had Fraser Forster diving to his left with a curling shot that the goalkeeper may have got the faintest touch to.
In terms of his own future at the club, Ozil said he is unsure what will happen when his contract expires next year. After this season I have one more year and after that I don't know what will happen because I can't see the future," he said. What I can do is give everything for the team, for myself, to be successful and let's see what happens in the future.
We have, from studies over the years, seen there are elevated risks for anxiety and different psychological problems for players compared to the general population because it's a tense and precarious employment for most of them and (this) makes it worse. Football around the world has been brought to a standstill by the pandemic with domestic leagues put on hold and the Euro 2020, Copa America and Olympic soccer tournaments postponed for one year.
Burnley have scored two or more goals in four of their six Premier League home games since the summer, and on Saturday, the Clarets' threatening frontline comes up against a Palace team that conceded twice in each of their last five outings.
Yes there’s an argument to be made that Sadio Mane has had a better season, what with the number of late and important goals he’s scored, whilst Virgil van Dijk and Kevin de Bruyne remain two of the very best in the world, but this has been Henderson’s year in so many ways. Steven Gerrard of Liverpool hands the Captain's arm band over to Jordan Henderson of Liverpool during the Capital One Cup Semi-Final first leg match between Liverpool and Chelsea at Anfield on January 20, 2015 in Liverpool, EnglandGetty Images This has been the season where he truly announced himself as one of the best midfielders around and his importance hasn’t diminished despite the expensive arrivals of Naby Keita and Fabinho.
It is only five weeks since Watford got their first Premier League home win of the season - against United. They have lost only once in seven games since. Defeat by Nigel Pearson's men would be a body blow. Losing to League One Tranmere would be a catastrophe given Rovers have lost three successive home games in 2020 - to Coventry, Leicester Under-21s and Ipswich - by a combined score of 8-3. Fan furyThere will be no repeat of the mass pre-final whistle exit of Old Trafford from the United fans at Vicarage Road or Prenton Park on Sunday but a repeat of the songs belted out against the Glazer family and Woodward cannot be ruled out.
The mach from Chelsea and Lille is a good soccer match for this players how love play this pick over from more goals at the match.

West Ham have one win in nine meetings with Arsenal Arsenal have failed to score in just one of 14 league matches at home. West Ham United have one win in nine matches. Arsenal have seven wins in their last 12 matches. Arsenal will be back at the Emirates Stadium to host West Ham United in the Premier League, after their away win over Portsmouth in the FA Cup.
Despite Monaco winning their final match of 2019 5-1, manager Leonardo Jardim was given his marching orders in favour of former Spain coach Robert Moreno. This will be first job managing a club at this level but following assistant stints at Roma, Celta Vigo and Barcelona, he will surely be right up for the challenge.
Lucas Moura stole possession off Fabian Schar before picking out Kane, who found Giovani lo Celso. He fed Son, who smashed his shot through DeAndre Yedlin's legs and into the net. Son has been directly involved in more goals under Mourinho than any other Spurs player (10 goals and eight assists). Ritchie's fine goal got Newcastle level but Kane - who was quiet until then - headed home to settle the game as Bergwijn got his first Premier League assist.
Rio Branco has an excellent record in this competition winning the title 47 times in their history. The last title was 2 years ago. Last year Rio Branco lost in the final after penalties to Atletico Acreano.
Dover Athletic will host Chesterfield for this fixture of the league. I expect, another one tough match for both sides. Both teams are not very good teams in the last matches. However, Dover have advantage at home stadium. I think, the hosts will closer to victory. Of course, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Chesterfield who's is one of the outsiders in this campaign. I think, they will have to invest a great effort in this game. Yeah, the visitors wants to get the victory because it is constantly getting closer to the relegation zone. However, the hosts want to win. They have two consecutive losses. They have to break the poor series.

Not just players who suffer from rustiness Referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz is known as one of the more flamboyant officials in Spain and is renowned for not being shy of giving it back to players when they argue with him on the pitch, while he usually likes to let the game flow. However, after a short mid-season break, perhaps it is not only the players who might be feeling a little rusty and out of practise as the Valencian struggled to control Alaves' scrappy 1-1 draw with Betis on Sunday.
The EFL’s statement emphasises that their “primary objective, in order to protect competition integrity, is to deliver a successful conclusion to the 2019/20 season”. However, an early decision has been made to postpone the Leasing. Trophy Final, which was scheduled for Sunday April 5, just a couple of days after the proposed restart.
Sergio Ramos is the team's second-highest scorer with five, but three of those came from the spot. The team's forwards are, to be blunt, having very bad seasons in front of goal: Gareth Bale (two league goals), Eden Hazard (1), Luka Jovic (2), Rodrygo (2) and Vinicius Junior (1) have all massively underperformed, making the ability of midfielders like Toni Kroos and Fede Valverde (and, of course, Ramos) to chip in with their fair share of strikes extremely important.
Newcastle Jets and Melbourne City will meet in the A-League on Monday. Both teams run a good period, the Jets win two important clashes, while the away team received the most goals in the league on March.
LONDON, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Jose Mourinho has reinvented himself several times during his successful managerial career at some of Europe's biggest clubs and has always demanded the spotlight but the new Tottenham Hotspur manager was a picture of humility on Thursday. Holding his first news conference at the north London club's sparkling new training ground after replacing Argentine Mauricio Pochettino, who was sacked on Tuesday, Mourinho could not stop smiling.
This fixture is usually reliable when it comes to both entertainment and goals. As well as the local derby factor, both teams play an attractive brand of football and we expect a feast for the eyes. Three of the last five meetings between these teams have featured at least four goals and we expect this fixture to live up to that standard. Back over 3.5 goals.
He can help them take the next step but everyone can say 'great appointment, with his name and trophies' - but is it what this club needs right now?"Former West Ham captain Kevin Nolan on BBC Radio 5 Live: "This is by far the biggest appointment Everton have made while I've been alive. It's a statement to say we need a world-class manager with a winning mentality to bring our club to that level.
The two English sides will meet in the semi-final if they win through. City - trying to win the competition for the first time - are joint-favourites with German champions Bayern. Atletico Madrid, who eliminated defending European champions and new Premier League winners Liverpool, will face Germany's RB Leipzig in the quarter-finals. Italian side Atalanta - winners of their past 11 games in all competitions - take on French champions Paris St-Germain, who have not played since 11 March after their domestic season was abandoned.
You just have to be clear that everything revolves around him. There have been murmurs that Juventus have looked better this season on the few occasions that the Portuguese forward has been absent and the partnership between Argentina pair Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala has flourished without him. The two were certainly on form when, without Ronaldo, Juventus thrashed Udinese 4-0 in the Coppa Italia in midweek, combining superbly with three successive one-twos to set up the opening goal for Higuain.
As well as in-form Dortmund side, Hoffenheim will have to overcome their own inconsistent form in Friday's game. Hoffenheim have won just one of their last five Bundesliga games. They have lost three of their last five Bundesliga fixtures.
Whilst we think that 2.5 line should be beaten its hard to see how Western United can stop their poor run against a Melbourne Victory side who look like they had a renewed confidence during their win over Perth last weekend. With that in mind, we’re predicting that Melbourne Victory should just about scrape things in this game and claim a 2-1 win.
Liverpool fans must wait until "the time is right" to celebrate the club's first Premier League title together, says manager Jurgen Klopp. Thousands of people celebrated on the city's waterfront on Friday, despite restrictions on gatherings because of the coronavirus pandemic. Firefighters extinguished a small fire at the Liver Building and 34 people were injured, three seriously. Klopp said he "did not love" the scenes at Pier Head.
Reims have a potentially easy opportunity for three points here but they will need to watch for complacency as they travel to the Pink City. David Guion's men kept up their good run of form last week as they beat Saint-Étienne 3-1, extending their unbeaten run to four games. Generally it has been a solid period for Reims as they have lost just one of their last nine games but they could do with some more wins as they have drawn three of their last four.
Slavia Mozyr is in good form. They remained unbeaten at home so far. They managed to win 4 of 4 games at the Stadyen Junatsva. Considering Minsk’s recent losing streak, I don't see Minsk possessing any real threat in this one. Minsk’s goalscoring agony are still continuing. They could not find the net in 6 of the last 10 away matches. Meanwhile Slavia managed 3 clean sheets in four home games in this season. 2 of the last 4 H2H games between them have ended level. Both sides have also made similar starts to this season, and it is quite hard to pick the winner.

When you've conceded seven goals in your last two games, do you really fancy a trip to Barcelona? That's the situation facing Borussia Dortmund who are second in this Champions League group, a point behind the Spanish side. Dortmund's form is a bit worrying with a 4-0 away loss to Bayern Munich and then a 3-3 home draw with relegation-threatened Paderborn.
Still, Vivianne Miedema is unlikely to be losing any sleep over her lack of recognition at a glitzy awards evening. After she put in a 70-minute shift on Sunday for her club against Bristol City, scoring six times and providing four assists as she helped them to a 10-0 lead, : " I am not going to the ceremony, I am staying home and preparing for the Reading game.
With David Martin's match-winning debut performance in goal and Aaron Creswell's unlikely winner from left-back at Stamford Bridge – West Ham's win and clean sheet at Chelsea had an incredibly anomalous feel about it however, and we don't expect the Irons to repeat the trick at Molineux this week.
Orlando aren't technically the home side but they will feel comfortable playing at this venue. They were in good form before the season was suspended and are close to full strength for this game. Brooklyn will be without key players and the tip here is for Orlando to get the win.
After the break, Willian fired wide following a swift Chelsea counter, before Tammy Abraham missed the target after rounding Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka as the visitors remained frustrated.

Fulham have not tasted victory for three matches now, a 1-1 draw at Derby being the latest result to prolong their winless streak. With the race for promotion being so competitive, they cannot afford to continue dropping points. Unless, of course, their rivals also drop points, which happens with regularity in the very open Championship.

In Spain, we expect Cadiz to host Tenerife for a La liga 2 match which is going to be held at Estadio Ramon de Carranza stadium in Cadiz city. In the last 5 matches, Cadiz proved to be unbeaten after winning only 1 match and drawing in 4 of them.
