Palace target Batshuayi Crystal Palace remain keen on signing Michy Batshuayi, the Sun reports. The 26-year-old striker spent the second half of last season on loan at Selhurst Park, but when Roy Hodgson’s club were quoted £45 million for a permanent transfer the move broke down. This summer Chelsea could be prepared to offer him for less, given Olivier Giroud has moved ahead of him in the pecking order.

All things considered, backing Under 2.5 Goals on Saturday looks an excellent value bet given the stats. As far as the overall result goes, Norwich have lost 2-0 in four of their last five Premier League away days and have only hit the back of the net once on the road this term, so a 2-0 win for the improving Everton looks attractive.
The appointment of Steve Bruce to replace Rafael Benitez last summer was not universally well received by the club's fans, but the 59-year-old has kept them away from the relegation zone and they are only two points short of matching last season's tally. But Bruce extended his wretched record as manager against City. He has never beaten them, losing nine out of 12 matches. They had several first-choice players missing, including Allan Saint-Maximin, Miguel Almiron and Jamaal Lascelles, and conceding two early goals did not help their cause.
Atleti's high number of draws on the road this season is a minor concern, but they appear to have rediscovered their touch for getting the job done over the last few weeks. Their miserly defence (12 conceded in 19 league games) should have no issues shutting out an Eibar attack that has failed to fire in five of their last seven La Liga matches, so we're predicting a 0-2 triumph for Simeone's side.
Real Potosi and Destroyers will face each other in the upcoming match in the Clausura in Bolivia. Real Potosi this season have the following results: 4W, 2D and 13L. Meanwhile Destroyers have 3W, 4D and 12L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Hockey uses the challenge system where a team can ask for a review if they believe a decision is wrong. If the video umpire agrees, they keep their right to a challenge; if not, they lose it for the rest of the game. In effect, it means that in the first half, nobody asks for the video umpire. You don't joke around because you know if you are wrong, you penalise the team for the rest of the game," said Thierry Weil, chief executive of the International Hockey Federation (FiH).
Of course, a trip to Old Trafford represents a bigger challenge to Spurs than Mourinho’s matches so far. Even in their beleaguered state, Man Utd have a lot more quality than the likes of West Ham, Olympiakos and Bournemouth. Taking all three points could be a stretch for a side that failed to win their last nine league meetings with the traditional Big Six, but Mourinho will feel there’s at least a point up for grabs on Wednesday.

Barca are in poor financial shape, and hiring would be complicated by the fact that the season has been extended by the coronavirus pandemic. Club legend Xavi, the number one target when Valverde was fired in January, appears unwilling to take over until president Josep Maria Bartomeu leaves his post next year, and other potential candidates have not exactly been rushing forward. But there is the option to promote B team boss Francisco Javier Garcia Pimienta temporarily.

Thirteen days later, an outstanding performance in a pre-season friendly against Manchester United - including a 25-yard strike that arrowed into the top corner - drew praise from then United boss David Moyes. Crowned J1 League Rookie of the Year in 2013, the following season would prove to be a forgettable one as Cerezo were surprisingly relegated from the J1 League despite a formidable collection of individual talent, including former United striker Diego Forlan.
Ceuta FC and Real Sociedad will meet in the second round in Copa Del Rey. Ceuta play in the fourth tier. They are one of the best team in their group, but they have no chance to catch the La Liga opponent. The guest team played a team from Tercera League in the previous round (8-0) and they reached a knock out victory. They received 8 goals that game, 5 players scored goal. The difference is extremely big, the home team must focus the defensive play, while the Real Sociedad will score a goal in a row. My tip: over.
Newcastle did get themselves an encouraging result at the weekend, but their away exploits simply haven't been up to scratch. The bet that stands out is 'Sheffield United to Win & Under 3.5 Goals'. The Blades don't often go mad in terms of goals scored at home – they're averaging 1.29 for and are yet to score more than three – but they're very good at restricting teams. They've got the tools to break through against a weak Newcastle side, while they can also stop a weak attack that has fired blanks in three of the last four (away). Moreover, while Sheffield United are the sixth-best Premier League side in terms of shots on target conceded at home, surrendering an average of 3.57, Newcastle are the third worst on the road, posting an average of just 3.00 for.
That is not what we are talking about here. Inter Milan's Europa League tie against Ludogorets at the San Siro in February was watched only by the support staff and senior executives of both clubs. The host broadcasters and one cameraman from each club were the only media allowed in. The situation was slightly more relaxed at Juventus' Serie A game against Inter. League officials decided to cap media numbers at 50, plus rights holders and production staff.

That is a disaster. Oh my gosh. He's not even obstructing the line of sight," TV cameras caught Calvert-Lewin saying as he viewed a replay of the incident. He was more restrained in his post-match interview. Fair enough, he's in an offside position but it takes a deflection, the keeper's going the other way and he (Sigurdsson) has got his legs out of the way.

If there is nothing that can repair the rift between fans and owners, then at least there was a connection with the team at Anfield. West Ham remain in the relegation zone after this result but they can at least take some solace from the manner in which they performed. Liverpool come from behind to beat West HamRelive Liverpool's victory over West HamWhen many expected West Ham to subside after Wijnaldum's ninth-minute goal, the opposite occurred as Issa Diop quickly equalised and when substitute Pablo Fornals put them ahead early in the second half Liverpool could have few complaints.

Atalanta, who are in the Champions League knockout stages, rise to fifth in the table. Milan had not lost by five goals in any competition since being beaten 5-0 by Roma in May 1998. Pioli, the club's third manager of 2019, said: "This cannot be the real Milan. We] approached the match in the wrong way and you just can't afford to do that against this team. Today's performance was seriously insufficient.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0Tom's prediction: 2-2Lawro was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan. How did Lawro do last time?Lawro and his guest, Hot Property host Yung Filly, have both predicted five correct results and no exact scores from the seven FA Cup fifth-round ties to be played so far this week. Lawro and Fillly have both gone for Manchester United to beat Derby 2-0 in the final tie on Thursday, so they will finish level, whatever the outcome at Pride Park.
Jablonec are in kind of must-win situation. They still haven't secured their spot at the championship group and with a won here they will do that. So far they are at the 4th place and have a little downfall at their performances but this is a great chance to get out of that bad shape. Karvina are playing for nothing. They are one of the worst squads this season and will finish at that 14th place and will play at the relegation group. Another thing is that Jablonec are the team with much more quality at their squad for sure and with few very experienced individuals.
It's to give support to all the players and show that black, white, Chinese or whatever, who you are - there is only one race. Pogba, who was racially abused on social media in August, has deliberately avoided trying to get central involvement through world governing body Fifa. The 2018 World Cup winner handed his wristband to a United fan after the warm-up. Racism has been a regular problem in football across Europe in 2019.
That dramatic confidence-building triumph was Chelsea's second Premier League away victory on the spin, however overall consistency is still proving elusive for Frank Lampard's men who were turned over in five of their last eight top-flight assignments.

We like to think we would meet up in 20 to 30 years, look back and mix up the years. Was it 2019 or 2020?"So far, so good. We try to squeeze everything we can get from our time together. There is no pressure, it is just opportunity. How do you maintain respect while making difficult decisions?"All my former players have my number and we stay in contact. I support them still, apart from the moment we play each other.
There are normally plenty of goals when Rotherham take to the field, netting 32 times in 20 matches, being the third highest scorers in the league thus far but they also concede more than a goal a game, something that Paul Warne will be keen to address.
There are negotiations between Xavi and Barcelona now and we wish him success wherever he decides to go," he told Qatari network Al Kass. On Friday, Al Sadd's general manager Turki Al-Ali said the club knew Xavi would eventually return to Barca but urged the Spanish side to negotiate with them directly.
Fans and commercial partners in the region always want to be associated with success and Liverpool's recent achievements in the Champions League and Club World Cup can be used to leverage more lucrative deals with sponsors. About 40 Liverpool fans watched Minamino's debut in a pub in Tokyo'An eruption of euphoria'Cynics may be quick to mention shirt sales and commercial reasons as key factors behind Klopp acquiring the 24-year-old forward, but Japanese supporters insist he has the talent to succeed on Merseyside.
Sarri's numbers have been impressive with 15 wins and four draws, yet the chain-smoking coach does not seem to have quite imposed his distinctive footballing philosophy on his team. A 2-2 draw at home to Sassuolo on Sunday meant they lost top spot and left them one point behind Inter Milan, who host AS Roma on Friday.
But there is still plenty to play for - a place in the history books. So what's still up for grabs?What records could they still break? Biggest title-winning margin: 19 points Two years ago Manchester City finished a mammoth 19 points clear of rivals Manchester United, with Liverpool a further six points back in fourth. This season Klopp's side are already 23 points ahead of the pack, so this record looks likely to fall.
City may be about to lose the Premier League crown that has been theirs for the past two seasons to Liverpool but they remain a top-class team and totally deserved this win in the competition that made up part of their historic domestic treble last season. The club have delivered a robust response off the field as they appeal against a two-year ban from the Champions League and a 30m euros (£25m) fine for "serious breaches" of Uefa's financial regulations.

Partizan have thus followed in the footsteps of Serbian champions and local rivals Red Star Belgrade, who halved player wages on Saturday and also terminated contracts with Dutchman Rajiv van la Parra and Brazilian defender Jander. Leagues across Europe have been trying to reach agreements over wage cuts after global sport came to a virtual standstill last month due to the coronavirus pandemic.
When the pair met at this venue, just two weeks ago, the game finished 0-0, before The Gills sneaked ahead in extra-time. Defensively, Steve Evans' men will be hoping for more of the same. If they can once again keep The Black Cats quiet, then they'll fancy themselves to get the win.
The only thing seemingly standing in these leading sides' way is, as Brady proposes, the season being written off. However, with football authorities liaising regularly to assess the ever-developing situation, the overriding preference is for the current season to be completed. The decision by Europe's football governing body Uefa to postpone the European Championship until 2021 means the likes of Liverpool have more time to complete the fixtures that will surely result in them being rewarded for their stellar campaigns so far.
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard says he is being "proven wrong" in thinking his squad have the mentality to sustain a Scottish Premiership title push. The Ibrox side conceded two late goals to lose 2-1 to Kilmarnock and slip 10 points behind leaders Celtic. It is the third time Rangers have dropped points in five league games since the winter break. I thought we were in a better place than what we've shown over the last four-six weeks," Gerrard said.
Egyptian forward Salah has been struggling with an ankle injury since a heavy challenge from Leicester City's Hamza Choudhury during Liverpool's 2-1 win early last month. The Warm-Up: 'Humble' Jose hints at title push - but can he back up big talk? Solskjaer relaxed at Man Utd despite Pochettino availability He was ruled out of Egypt's matches against Kenya and Comoros and was pictured wearing a protective boot on his left ankle last week.
We told Arsenal's (head of football) Raul Sanllehi and sports director Edu as well as the new coach Mikel Arteta. Arsenal were informed about all the steps, the player and Hertha are clear. It is only (a matter of) the transfer fee for the clubs. Xhaka was signed from Borussia Monchengladbach in 2016 for around £30m and has made 150 appearances since, scoring 11 goals and providing 17 assists.
The 21-year-old is in his third full season and close to the French national team, so now is the time for him to step up. WHO IS INTERESTED? Juventus were already interested in him before the Champions League meeting in Turin, but they are even more fixed on the idea now. Real Madrid and PSG are also interested.
I'm not a fan of the begging-bowl culture," Parry told BBC Radio 5 live. Rather than] just looking for handouts, it's better to go with a self-help mentality, saying 'this is what we've done, this is the problem that we find ourselves in, so how can we all help to produce a better future?'"I think it's much better, in dialogue with the Premier League, to talk about sustainable futures and how we might be able to have a reset going forward.
In all, fans have stumped up £300,000 via this method, with some clubs giving a slice of the money to charitable causes. Last week England captain Harry Kane was given clearance by the FA, EFL and Premier League to sponsor the shirts of Leyton Orient, where he made his senior debut in 2011, next season, donating the advertising space to good causes. The move could open the door for other high-profile players to follow suit in the coming months, showing support for a lower league club close to their hearts during a time when companies may not be so willing to commit to shirt sponsorship deals.
He has drawn praise for how well-organised Mirandes have been and for the intensity with which they play. As Martin explains, he’s also been smart. Iraola got some players on loan from big teams of the north of Spain such as Martin Merquelanz and Jon Guridi from Real Sociedad, and have a combination of foreign players such as Brazilian forwards Matheus Aias and Marcos Andre as well as young guys and veteran players that are ending up turning this into a great project.
Of the five England players involved in the last domestic fixture before the international break for the four-team invitation tournament, only Chelsea's reserve goalkeeper Carly Telford did not feature. Millie Bright was kept busy at the back for a Chelsea side that was at times under siege by an Arsenal team led by her Lionesses team-mate Nobbs and urged forward by Williamson, who played a more advanced role in midfield.
