It is a result that fulfils the usual minimum requirement of Champions League qualification for Manchester United. But while Leicester City's fifth-placed finish is highly creditable and earns a place in the Europa League, this will undoubtedly be a huge disappointment and anti-climax after being in a position to reach the Champions League for so long. It will be scant consolation for them that striker Vardy will claim the Golden Boot, as the Premier League's top scorer with 23 goals.
Everyone was talking about goal difference for a while and now we're two points clear," Lennon said. I don't think it's going to have any impact on Sunday. You have to take the game in isolation. Lennon is confident his players' domestic dominance proves they can handle the pressure of extending their silverware stranglehold. The League Cup remains the only trophy the 48-year-old has yet to win as a manager, while Rangers have gone eight years since their last major honour.
Earlier in April, culture secretary Oliver Dowden said the Premier League was considering making some behind-closed-doors fixtures available free-to-air when the season restarts. Plans to resume the Premier League season stepped up this week in what has been labelled 'Project Restart', with Arsenal, Brighton and West Ham opening their training grounds to players for individual work on Monday. The league is hopeful of a potential 8 June restart and finishing at the end of July to fit in with Uefa's European competition plans.
Eight-times winners Tottenham took the lead after 12 minutes courtesy of an own goal by Jack Stephens but Southampton hit back with Shane Long tapping home an equaliser. Southampton looked to be on course for a deserved win when Danny Ings finished off a superb counter-attack after 72 minutes but Lucas Moura's clinical finish levelled it up.
I believe that home team will not have too many problems in this duel from Premier league and that is pretty real to expect. So, Leicester City is interesting team who is in this moment in fantastic form. They are winning in almost all matches so far, and only, as I remember they are lost in last few weeks against Liverpool 1-2. Everton, on the other side is in problems and team is lost even against Norwich City at home 0-2. I believe that home team is in this moment much better team and they will show that here, surely.
Top football players are being urged to spend 90 minutes focussed on making a positive difference by Common Goal, a social impact collective supported by leading stars of the sport from Jurgen Klopp to Eric Cantona.

Director of football Marcel Brands cut a concerned figure at half-time, deep in discussion with fellow director Sasha Ryazantsev - and there will surely be more discussions among the Everton hierarchy post-match. Everton did create some chances but never looked like ending a winless Anfield sequence stretching back to September 1999. It is also the first time Everton have conceded four goals in the first half of a Merseyside derby since 1935.

This should be an entertaining game and a few goals should be scored even if most of Newcastle's do still come from defenders. Newcastle's form has improved of late (it needed to) and if their strikers can start scoring, a top ten finish is possible. Both these sides could do with signing some defenders in the transfer window. They have conceded 38 goals between them in the Premier League this season. Nine of Villa's league games this season have had over 2.5 goals scored in them, another is likely here. Go for that stat to come up in this match.
He wasn't much of a forward thinker. Anyway, Manchester United are kicking off against Astana at 3. UK time, beginning six solid hours of delightful mayhem. Why not follow that with Rangers-Feyenoord, and then the latest instalment of Unai Emery vs. The Emirates? Eintracht Frankfurt will be there too.
Of course, that goals are my first option in this duel from Swiss Superleague and I will bet on that option, because it is more than ok and real. So, Young Boys is team who is this season surely the strongest, similar like it was the case in last two seasons, when they are won the title. Still, in last four matches, their defense was very problematic and team is played 1-2, 1-2, 4-3 and 4-3. This match surely will bring similar situation on the court and I will bet on over 3,5. For me, that is very real and ok to try.
There are 16 teams in the play-offs in four groups, with a semi-final and final - with four teams going to this summer's tournament. Also, each team who won the group was promoted to the higher league, with countries finishing bottom - including Germany from League A and Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland from League B being relegated. What has changed in the new one? Can England go one step further this time?Uefa increased the size of the top three tiers to 16 countries - meaning each group will have four teams - and decreased the size of the bottom tier to seven.
Frankfurt have won four of their eight home games in the league this season and have only lost once and Guimaraes have only won one of their six away games in the Primeira Liga and are yet to win home or away in the Europa League, losing three times, while Frankfurt have won three of their games in Group F.

With Liverpool eyeing a first league title since 1990, the Reds are expected to field a second-string side, as they did in the third-round win over Everton, which Edwards hopes will provide Shrewsbury with an opportunity. Whoever walks out there in a red shirt, Liverpool are still an institution. It's still a memorable occasion," he added. It's a chance to put some pressure on, get a draw at the very least and then take them back to Anfield.

Juventus Managua will against Real Madrid in match Nicaragua Premier Division. My prediction this match could be the win for Juventus Managua with margin score is 2 goals. Juventus Managua have better result on last 3 match in league due to Juventus Managua have won in 1 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose.

Brisbane Roar did not have a good first half of the season with only 2 wins in the first 9 matches but they have looked much better in 2020 with a 6-2-2 record in the 10 games in the league and they have climbed to the 5th place.
Getty Images 80’ - GOAL! Arsenal 1-2 Brighton (Maupay) Lovely goal! What an impact! Trossard finds Mooy down the left, who could cross but takes him time, eventually clipping a ball that's sort of behind Maupay. But he adjusts brilliantly to flick-guide a header which sails into the far corner! He's played really well tonight, darting and prompting, and that goal has been well earned.
England manager Gareth Southgate says "we shouldn't spend another moment" thinking about the postponement of Euro 2020 and called for all of the national team's fans to "look out for each other". This summer's finals have been put back a year because of the coronavirus outbreak, while the Three Lions were due to play friendlies against Italy and Denmark next week. Southgate - who says that all of his current players can still play in the finals next year - has written an open letter to England fans, which is reproduced in full below.
Match Day 23 in the Italian Serie A is here and Juventus will be looking to build on their 3-0 win over Fiorentina when they travel to Hellas Verona for the match at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi. Going to the game, Hellas Verona are placed ninth with 31 points while Juventus top the standings with 54 points.
Norwich City have lost their last six league games. Norwich have lost their last three home league fixtures without scoring. West Ham United have only lost one of their last three league games. It's looking more like ‘Mission Impossible’ for Norwich City than ‘The Great Escape. They remain bottom of the Premier League and simply have to beat16th placed West Ham United.
Sheffield United are yet to taste defeat on the road, which is quite remarkable, but that's not to say that they've not been effective at home. They're anything but easy to get the better of at Bramall Lane, where they've conceded just seven goals in seven games and have kept an encouraging three clean sheets. After a few narrow and arguably unjust defeats in front of a home crowd, Wilder's men have steadied themselves of late to go unbeaten in their last three at home, two of which they've won. During that time, the Blades have scored seven and conceded only three.
The Gunners' defending is not getting any better either and, if West Ham turn up for this one, I think they will win. Until Arsenal appoint a manager, it is difficult to know what direction they are going in - but it appears to be downwards at the moment. Their chances of securing Champions League football for next season by making the top four are starting to look remote. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Andy's prediction: They are both struggling at the moment.
These two sides will be looking to extend their unbeaten runs in La Liga. Barcelona have a much better run though, and have been scoring more than Betis. The home side holds a big attacking threat and may get a goal here but in Barcelona’s recent form an away win seems the best pick.
With four clean sheets in their last five matches, Juventus will be favorites going to this game, and they have seven straight wins at home. Their matches have been high scoring, with five of the last eight producing over 2. The only loss Juve have suffered in eight matches in this competition came through post match penalties as they fell to Napoli in last season’s final.
I will be taking the guests to be winning this game with cover on the draw bet for a couple of reasons. First of all Krylya does have more experience in the first league level than their opponents and despite having just 2 wins at home in the league this season one of the main reasons why they sit at this moment in the relegation zone, one of those wins came at home against Tambov in a game dominated from start to finish by them plus that after the winter break they won four points from their two games, and won 1-0 away at Rubin Kazan this while at home played most of the game with Orenburg in 10 men but were good value for the 1-1 draw in the end.
This is likely to be a very tight game, though. At Upton Park, you always felt the crowd were a huge help to West Ham but in their new home they are so far from the pitch they may as well be in a different postcode. So it will be hard for the Hammers' fans to make themselves heard, but they have to be at it here because they know this is a big one. Lawro's prediction: 1-0Georgia's prediction: This is for my dad, who is a West Ham fan.
