Saipa entered the opening match with poor form and despite playing at home, the chance of scoring Iran's team is very low. It is worth knowing that the coach of A.Ilić has just had 2 consecutive losses against Al Shabab in the quarterfinals of the Arab regional clubs, losing 0-1 and 0-6. If calculated more broadly, Saipa has an erratic performance when winning 2 matches, drawing 2 and losing 3 matches in the last 7 matches in all competitions.
Last season Shakhtar won this game with 5-0 in the end and they are once more clear favorites for winning the title in this country and they are also not doing all that bad in the Champions League as well although they had some problems in defense there while drawing first 2-2 at home and 3-3 away from home at Dinamo Zagreb but they are too good for Lviv who is also in not so great form and I am not really counting on Lviv to score here as their form is poor but the hosts can score this much all alone.
Lawro's prediction: 1-1Tom's prediction: Watford need to win - and we need Watford to lose. Fingers crossed for Spurs here. Arsenal v Sheff UtdSheffield United got a good win over West Ham last week, while Arsenal drew at Crystal Palace. The Gunners will be without suspended striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on Saturday after his red card at Selhurst Park - and it was definitely a red - which is a big blow for them.
Extremadura UD is still in relegation positions but definitely improving in recent weeks after three consecutive games without losing and with a very important win on the road by 1 - 0 in the previous round against Gijon. On this contest they will play at home against Alcorcon, a team that failed to win all their last 5 games on this competition and the value is clearly on the home side here. The market has also been backing Extremadura UD since the opening odds with a drop of around 10% so far, which makes them the best bet for this match.
The hosts saw off Bologna 3-1 at their own ground last time out, although the hosts haven’t had the easiest run of things of late. Sassuolo have won just twice in their last seven league games, while they've been beaten in three of their last four at home. The Neroverdi have every clash at the MAPEI Stadium with sides currently above them in the league, while they've lost six of seven against sides above them.
Sheffield United players argued furiously that during the build-up the the ball had struck referee Chris Kavanagh and a drop ball should have been called, but after a brief review the goal stood. City wrapped up the win which leaves them just a point behind second-placed Leicester City, in the 82nd minute, when De Bruyne drove home at the end of a swift counter-attack from Riyad Mahrez.
A senior source at a leading Premier League club has told the BBC that the first casualty if competitions have to be fundamentally changed would be the EFL Cup. The tournament has been in existence since 1960-61 and been won by Manchester City for the past three seasons. While the prize money - £100,000 to the winner and £50,000 to the runner-up - is small in comparison to other competitions, it represents a significant revenue stream for the Football League.
Tranmere Rovers hover just above the relegation zone in League One heading into this weekend’s FA Cup 2nd round tie at home to non-league Chichester City and the visitors arrive in decent form and will be hoping that extending their good run in this competition will spur them on to promotion.

The whole of the next football season in England could be played in front of reduced capacities and crowd sizes could be further impacted if chanting is proven to heighten transmission risk, a senior government adviser has said. The first pilots for the return of crowds to sporting events in England took place with a cricket friendly at The Oval on Sunday, and additional test events are taking place at Edgbaston, the World Snooker Championship and Glorious Goodwood in the next week.
So I feel we have to be very much on guard against a team like that. We slightly had it against West Ham last week. Lampard has guided a youthful Chelsea side to fourth place this season and could look to add experience to the squad in January after their FIFA transfer ban was reduced on Thursday. The manager, however, suggested he would continue to keep faith with the youngsters, including Callum Hudson-Odoi who was previously a target for Bayern Munich before committing his future to Chelsea until 2024.
Reaction & as it happenedHosts frustrated as Southwood excelsThe recall of Morelos after he was left out of the Tynecastle defeat for a breach of discipline was designed to add sharpness to Rangers' attack. But for all their intent, they were lacking in composure in the opening 45 minutes. Ianis Hagi was denied by Luke Southwood early on and Florian Kamberi was also foiled by the visiting goalkeeper.

Dinamo Minsk is favorite here, and the favorite in all competition. They are at the first place in the league table, and have perfect form without losing game. Team should not have any issues to win here, since Slutsk is in the middle of the table, with average results.
Souness, who also won five league titles with Liverpool but unlike Pogba has never won a World Cup, responded to the Frenchman. The oldest saying in football comes to mind: 'Put your medals on the table'. I've got a big table," the 66-year-old told Sky Sports. Pogba was closing in on a return to action after recovering from an ankle injury when the Premier League season was suspended indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Gambling no longer controls what I do. If I hadn't got myself clean, I'd either be dead or in jail. I can put my hand on heart and say that. I was at my rock bottom. In recent seasons, the SFA has banned players and club officials for breaches of the rules and Hartson believes gambling is "huge across the board". Gambling is a serious problem and if people don't get hold of it they will end up in one place," he added.

Kepa saved a penalty in Wednesday's 2-2 Champions League draw at Valencia but came under criticism for failing to stop the two goals, especially the equaliser when he seemed to pull out of a save when Daniel Wass shot from distance. Like everybody, we're all trying to improve. Kepa is a professional and you can see it in his attitude every day," Lampard told reporters ahead of Saturday's London derby against West Ham United in the Premier League.
Ultimately, Corinthians will know the importance of winning this game and it's very hard to picture them slipping up. Man for man, they are simply on another level to Avai and with the visitors in atrocious form and having nothing to play for, you have to question their motivational levels coming into the clash.
Wolves Burnley (a, 15 July), Crystal Palace (h, 20 July), Chelsea (a, 26 July)Wolves only have slim hopes of the top four now. They sit four points behind Leicester and Manchester United - and have to overtake two teams - so need several results to go their way. Chances of top four (from Gracenote): 4%7. Sheffield United Leicester (a, 16 July), Everton (h, 20 July), Southampton (a, 26 July)Sheffield United are five points behind Leicester - their next opponents - and Manchester United so would need to win all three games and hope for the sides above them to all drop lots of points.
Liverpool hold a 16-point advantage at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand - but the painful sub-plot for United after this victory is that it opened up a 30-point gap between the two old foes. Victory for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool opened up a 30-point gap over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United in the Premier LeagueAnd such is Liverpool's current superiority that neither margin flatters them unduly.
Football match from the Nigerian league and we have Enugu Rangers playing host to Abia Warriors. The team of Enugu Rangers find themselves close to bottom of the league, they are currently 19th position with 12 point and for a team with such good history this isn't a natural position for them. They have played 4 matches less than most teams as they have been involved in continental tournaments but now they are out and need to focus more on the league.
Overall this term, despite some encouraging results, some of which have come as a result of good fortune, Rovers have been a bit disappointing going forward on their travels. They've scored 12 goals but rank as one of the worst teams in the league when it comes to both shots and shots on target for away from home.
It is also more than any club in Europe's big five league's has managed after 21 games, and the way things are going the title might be wrapped up by Easter. Yet Klopp was subdued after Saturday's win -- disappointed his side had not dispatched Jose Mourinho's faltering Tottenham Hotspur side with ease after a dominant first half.
Still, Liverpool shouldn’t be over confident coming into this game. Their first team squad will be undeniably weary after their long trip and subsequent victory in the Club World Cup, and their performances away from home this season haven’t been spectacular.
Atlético need a victory at the Allianz Stadium to guarantee their place alongside Juventus in the knockout stages. Match statsJuventus have only picked up one victory in their five Champions League meetings with Atlético Madrid (W1 D2 L2), winning 3-0 at Allianz Stadium in the last 16 in 2018-19. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 25 goals versus Atlético Madrid in all competitions - only against Sevilla (27) has he netted more.
It has been a difficult few weeks for Cambridge United as they have seen their form plummet and have claimed just two wins from their last eight league matches. Perhaps unsurprisingly, this dip in form has seen the hosts drop down the league and despite being up there with the top contenders in the opening months of the campaign, they are now dropping into a position most expected at the start of the season.

We are therefore committed to finding alternative ways to operate while there are no football matches being played that ensures we are not applying for the government relief scheme. Premier League players and managers have been criticised for not taking pay cuts during the league's suspension while the clubs' staff, who earn a fraction of their wages, are furloughed.
My Iranian friends in my local cafe will have been celebrating with double espressos and baklava after their countryman scored two goals in two games. They kept telling me he was a player, although he struggled to get a regular run of games under former Brighton manager Chris Hughton. Graham Potter is a more attacking manager and he has found room for the Iran international. Potter has been suitably rewarded for putting his faith in the player.
Leeds levelled after the break through Patrick Bamford's tap-in on the rebound from substitute Eddie Nketiah's strike.

Having hammered Ceara 4-1 in the week, Flamengo aren't looking to put their feet up however and they'll come into this trip desperate to prove just why they are Brazil's strongest side. They beat Palmeiras 3-0 earlier on in the campaign and having won 26 of their 35 games overall, they'll travel to Sao Paulo supremely confident of securing victory.
Fuenlabrada are having a great season so far as newly promoted team. They are currently on the 5th place in the league and have lost only one home game this season. They already held Malaga to a 0-0 draw in the first meeting this season in Malaga.
He (Mourinho) has got attacking players, let's get it right," Lampard said. Dele Alli was up there during his best season at Spurs. Lucas Moura scored a hat-trick in a Champions League semi-final. Kane and Son are a miss, but they are in good form. They have players who can fill in. They have players with quality and they are a threat.
I can't see a solution. Serie A president Paolo Dal Pino told the ANSA news agency that "Marotta represents the needs of Inter, I protect the general interests of the entire Serie A which unfortunately suffers daily conflicts of interest linked to each team. I have to promote the Italian league and its image in the world; broadcasting matches in empty stadiums would have been a bad business card for the country.
We do see a threat that certain programmes will shut down or not see the same attention as before. The long-term consequences [of the pandemic] in terms of the equality and the diversity in our game could be much harder hit on the women’s side.

One is a stalling of the investment we’ve recently seen - we need to still keep building up investment in women's football to sustain professional development.
I do not really know what is up with these odds because what I can find at this moment writing are 1.91 for the hosts to win this one by 2 goals difference and still going down, one reason for odds being just 1.24 rally for the home win is that the hosts with a win today would pretty much secure they avoid relegation this season being 4 points with 3 games remaining to be played above the relegation zone right now. This while the guests are bottom of the league already relegated for sure.
Defender Dejan Lovren is in contention to return to the squad, having recovered from a muscle injury sustained during Liverpool's win against Salzburg in the group stage of the Champions League last month. Dejan has trained now since the start of the week," Klopp said. So, (these are his) first steps out on the pitch, it’s good.
We also know we have got to improve to another level. It's hard to assess exactly where we are after this qualifying campaign. But if we look at a World Cup semi-final, a Nations League semi-final, and qualifying with the most goals in Europe, we have done all we can and we are on a good track. Apart from their good World Cup run, Southgate, who took the national team job on a permanent basis in 2016 and has a contract until 2022, led England to top spot in their Euro 2020 qualifying group to earn a seeding at the finals.
