Strasbourg have drawn two of their last four matches with PSG. PSG have scored in all of their away matches in Ligue 1 this season. Strasbourg have failed to score more than one goal in five of their last six matches. Sandwiched in between two huge cup games, Paris Saint-Germain travel to Strasbourg for Ligue 1 action this weekend.
The Bayern Munich defender is said to be available for £12. Mirror claims Milan are hopeful of beating Arsenal to the 31-year-old's signature. Boateng has been in and out of the Bayern side this season, starting eight of their 17 Bundesliga games so far, and reportedly wants to move in a bid for more first-team football.
Getty Images The next step? He has to work out what to do when teams set themselves up to counter his high-intensity style of football by sitting deep and catching his naïve team on the counter. And unfortunately he has to do that fast. This season has become a brilliant opportunity to secure Champions League football, something that could be make-or-break when it comes to summer recruitment.
One of his major roles has been to bring out the best in players by looking to highlight what is missing from their games. He has been important in the development of Raheem Sterling and Leroy Sane, as both have admitted, through video analysis and long chats in the office, as well as making corrections in training. Highlighting weaknesses in the game of any top-flight player can be a sensitive issue.
Martin Boyle's double made it back-to-back derby wins for Hibs at Tynecastle for the first time since the 1970s as Hearts remain stuck at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership. Both goals came in a first half dominated by the visitors, with a well taken volley followed by a composed one-on-one finish. Hearts, three points adrift, have now picked up one point from their last eight matches, with Daniel Stendel the club's first manager in 82 years to lose his first four games.

We have to have agility in this period," he added. Coronavirus restrictions across England are due to be eased from 4 July, with pubs, restaurants, hairdressers and hotels allowed to reopen. The Foxes are third in the Premier League and are scheduled to host Crystal Palace on 4 July, Sheffield United on 15 July and Manchester United on 26 July. We will just keep working until we are told otherwise," said Rodgers.
That is obviously going to be a major problem for them in terms of getting anything at Old Trafford. On top of that, things are going against them - like their red card in Sunday's defeat at Newcastle and their 'goal' that wasn't given against Aston Villa. This will be their third away game on the trot, which hardly helps matters either, so I will go with a Manchester United win here. Watching Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side in Friday's draw at Spurs, you could tell they are in a good place at the moment.
I felt this was harsh as City were sixth in the Premier League, having lost only twice (too many draws, yes) and were in the semi-finals of the Carling Cup. I also questioned the logic of City's new owners in giving Hughes around £200m to spend, then sacking him when there was still reasonable cause for optimism. In fact, many City fans agreed. Not content with questioning that, I waded in on the appointment of his successor Roberto Mancini, claiming he had "appeared from nowhere and out of exile to move City forward".
He delivered it with a stinging shot in the top corner. Matt Le Tissier: Southampton 2-1 Newcastle United (Premier League)24 October 1993With the ball headed just behind him, Southampton's Matt le Tissier had to improvise by flicking the ball up with his left foot, before lifting the ball over a second defender with his right and calmly slotting the ball past Mike Hooper. Shearer: "He flicked it over one defender with his left foot and then flicked it over another defender with his right.
Hands up if you are missing football at the moment. Yes, us too. How about a bumper football quiz to keep you entertained? We've got the perfect one for you. Can you name the 162 players who have been named in a PFA team of the year during the Premier League era? It's tough - but we have made it a little easier with a few clues for you. We have given you the club they were playing for at the time and the campaign they were named in the end-of-season team.
But ministers and their advisers will also be hanging on Angela Merkel's every word on Thursday when the German chancellor addresses regional leaders, and no doubt discusses the Bundesliga's plans to resume matches in mid-May - plans that have acted as a source of inspiration to other countries around Europe. But with a recent spike in cases in Germany raising fears that their lockdown may be tightened again, if Merkel follows the French in ruling sport out for several months, some believe the game could be up for the Premier League too.
Everton have experienced an upturn in form since Duncan Ferguson initially took over the reins and now Ancelotti at the helm but City must keep pushing although the title does seem out of reach. I’m going to tip a Man City win and over 2.5 goals in this game.

This fixture features No. 5 vs No. 1 in the league, Atalanta vs Juventus. The hosts coming from a 0 - 0 away draw with Sampdoria (no. 17 in the league) and their last home game a 0 - 2 loss to Cagliari. The visitors coming from a 1 - 0 home win over AC Milan (No. 14 in the league) and their last away game a 0 - 1 win over Torino. The visitors should win this one even though they played a lower table team than the hosts and won the game scoring one goals and not conceding then also won their last away game scoring one goal and not conceding to a team below the hosts facing a team coming from playing a team below themselves, not scoring or conceding a goal to draw the match then losing their last home game to a team below the hosts so a DNB is given because this game could also end in a goalless draw.
Two worst teams in the league one table but this is great chance for Norwich to get some points and some hope that they could avoid relegation because Bournemouth is in terrible shape and right now it feel like they can get even a draw versus anyone and on the other hand Norwich recently beat Preston in fa cup which should give confidence to them enough to win this game and the Bookies are feeling that too ao Norwich is favorites to win this game and I Will take that bet but I cant say I m sure and I can't recommend it
Liverpool forward Harvey Elliott has signed a three-year deal with the Premier League champions. It is Elliott's first professional contract, which he was eligible to sign after turning 17 on 4 April. The England Under-17 winger joined Liverpool from Fulham last summer and has made eight first-team appearances. Harvey is such an exciting prospect. We all know his qualities - we have seen them this season in the first team and U23s," said Reds boss Jurgen Klopp.
A new year begins and one in which Liverpool can fully expect to win the Premier League. They have such a lead that it is going to take an almighty collapse for the title race to even get tight. 2020 begins with a home game against Sheffield United and their opponents have only one point from their last two games. Liverpool won away at Sheffield United and can complete the league double, leading at both half and full time.
Scoring the winner in London, top scorer Timo Werner ended his own five-game goal drought in all competitions. I had not scored in the last few games and I had also missed some chances before the penalty," Werner said. That did not make the penalty any easier but I really wanted to take it and I stayed calm.
In fact, I think he's going to be top class. Mason Mount's performance against Spurs was the most mature game I have seen from the Chelsea youngster in a blue shirt. Quite apart from the fact that Mount has excellent technical ability he's also not afraid to stick his foot in and battle when required. The latter feature that was very evident during the game against Tottenham. Frank Lampard has assembled an impressive young side who believe in him.
He will, however, be a very popular goalscorer among Blades fans who appreciate the hunger and work ethic he brings to every performance. And, despite that lack of goals, his sharpness was in evidence when he pounced midway through the first half. Mason Mount lost the ball for Chelsea, Kepa somehow kept out McBurnie's deflected volley but McGoldrick followed up to lash home the opening goal. He then got a well-deserved second with 13 minutes to go as his driving run created an opening and he was in the right place to bury the loose ball.
The trouble flared in Monday's match when Lapadula converted an 83rd-minute penalty to cut Cagliari's lead to 2-1 and then rushed to grab the ball out of the net. Sweden international Olsen got there first and hoofed the ball away, prompting an angry remonstration from Lapadula. Olsen then shoved Lapadula with his shoulder, Lapadula appeared to headbutt Olsen on the chin and then Olsen pushed Lapadula to the ground before also falling over, clutching his face.
Alianza Lima have not scored in 11 of their last 15 Copa Libertadores matches. Nacional have scored in six of their last 10 Copa Libertadores away games. Alianza Lima have one win in 17 Copa Libertadores matches. Alianza Lima have lost nine of their last 12 home matches in Copa Libertadores. Nacional have five wins in 10 Copa Libertadores matches.
The 21-year-old is United’s club record signing and a big coup for Chris Wilder as he looks to keep pushing United improbably up the league table. And in news entirely separate from the fact that a Tottenham dressing room source recently trashed Jose Mourinho’s methods, Danny Rose has been shipped off to Newcastle United on loan.
Both of these sides are struggling for form and goals. Energetik have slipped from the top of the table to seventh, while Smolevichi are in the bottom two and yet to win a league game. Between them they have played 12 league matches and scored just nine goals. Smolevichi may be one from bottom but have only conceded seven goals in six fixtures. A bet on under 2.5 goals in the game is definitely the one to make.
The former Manchester United player felt ill during his side's defeat to Valencia on December 10 and has since gone through extensive medical tests. The Amsterdam side disclosed on Saturday that Blind had been "diagnosed with heart muscle inflammation" and will miss the side's mid-season training camp in January.
City lead the race for Martinez Manchester City are heading the pack to sign Inter Milan’s Lautaro Martinez. The 22-year-old Argentine striker has a £97. Inter can't persuade him to sign a new deal. Chelsea, Real Madrid and Barcelona are all interested but can't afford to sign him at that price. Pep Guardiola sees him as Sergio Aguero’s replacement, the Sun claims.
Slutsk have ten points from their first five games of the new season. Their only defeat has been a 1-0 home loss to defending champions Dinamo Brest. Since then, they have won two and drawn one with both coming on their travels at Isloch Minsk and Shakhtyor Soligorsk. With nine goals, they are the top scorers this season in the Belarus Premier League.

Mikel Arteta had his most satisfying night as Arsenal manager when Premier League champions Liverpool were beaten at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday - but it also outlined the scale of the task he faces. The 38-year-old former Gunners midfielder, appointed to replace fellow Spaniard Unai Emery shortly before Christmas, admitted the gulf between Liverpool and Arsenal is as wide as the current 40-point gap suggests.

And for the Warm-Up, too. Try as we might, we just couldn’t think of a good set-up for the punchline “Son of a Gunn”. Must be something, but can we find it? No. So we’re just going to drop it without context. Ahem: “Son of a Gunn. There we go. You may now laugh. Payet … Payet! Oh come along now, Dimitri.

Lukaku has scored 14 Serie A goals this season after his £74m move from Manchester United in August. Only Lazio's Ciro Immobile, with 19, has scored more league goals in Italy in 2019-20 than the 26-year-old Belgian. Cristiano Ronaldo is third in the goalscoring charts on 13 after he grabbed his first Serie A hat-trick for Juventus in their simple home victory. Both Inter and Juventus are on 45 points from 18 matches, six clear of third-placed Lazio while Napoli, who have lost two of their three matches since they sacked Carlo Ancelotti in December, are eighth.
A lot has been said about the connection, especially when one of them doesn't score, but the best players always end up understanding each other," said Barca coach Ernesto Valverde after beating Dortmund. Luis and Leo understand each other perfectly because they have been playing together for a long time, and with time the three of them will learn to gel even better with each other.
It's not been an easy campaign for Blackburn, who went from the end of September until the end of November without a league win, though they've turned things around of late, losing none of their last five, four of which they've won.
Thursday's Brazilian Serie A action sees Corinthians doing battle with Avai in Sao Paulo. The hosts arrive as huge favourites to win the game and shouldn't have any issues in dispatching of the already relegated visitors.
Villa won 5-0. Klopp, who believes Cup replays should be scrapped, will almost certainly be as good as his word. It's about players' welfare and they need a rest -- mental rest, physical rest," he said. That's what the winter break is about and then another competition tells us it's not that important.
Paper Round's view: There's no denying that Sancho is a massive talent, but he needs to be 100% committed to reaching his potential if he wants to be world class. Dortmund are only being fair by disciplining him for breaking club rules, but they will be hugely disappointed in the England international.
Giggs will have the chance to watch himself in action at 13:15 BST on Saturday as BBC One Wales returns to 2002 for Wales' famous win against Italy. I remember a lot of hype around the game, it was a special Italian team, there were so many top players," added Giggs. At the time it was our strongest team that [then manager Mark] Hughes could pick from, it had a lot of players in their prime. We were a real handful, and we were really up for the game, but more than that we had quality that we wanted to impose on the Italian team.
The perception is very different to the reality. What happened last season with Abou is well documented but he has come back into the squad with the blessing of the players. They are fully on board. He has not been involved much this season, and he has his moments, but he is a grafter and he works hard and he deserved his goals. QPR boss Mark Warburton:"It's very frustrating to be leaving with nothing.
