In the province of Lodi (Lombardy), the first to have been placed in total quarantine on February 23, the first positive signs are finally arriving. A breath of fresh air for everyone. Even though residents are still confined to their homes and people are being treated, there have been no new cases reported in the past two days.
At the time the league was halted, Brighton were on a 10 - match winless streak across all competition and they can only hope for the better here. They have three wins in their last 19 matches, and one of them came against Arsenal at the Emirates. This is one fixture they will look forward to, having not lost to Arsenal in the last four meetings.
Atalanta's meetings with Inter invariably stir memories of Gasperini's unhappy stint at the Milan-based club where he was sacked after only five matches at the start of the 2011-12 season - the only time he has coached one of Italy's top clubs. Since then, Gasperini has faced them 13 times - once with Palermo, five times with Genoa and six with Inter.
I would be very disappointed, because I saw it at the time," Lennon said. Lessons from the Premiership weekendGap 'psychologically good' for CelticAppeal after bottle thrown at Celtic Park"I think his leg was trapped and he's trying to get up. I'm not sure how much contact he really made with the player. There was no malice in that, there's no intent in that at all, so I would be bewildered if anything came from that.
Whereas Liverpool used that win in Madrid as the launchpad to a golden future, Spurs look like a team and a club that has simply not recovered from getting so near but yet so far away from the greatest prize in European club football. Spurs, without injured striker Harry Kane, battled gamely in the second half and might have earned a point had Son Heung-Min and Giovani lo Celso not missed excellent chances, but the brutal reality is that Liverpool now operate on a different level to the club they faced in Madrid a few months ago.
That's three games in seven days which is a lot. We lost Sadio Mane and that's the pressure I think about. All the rest is no pressure. We said it before it would be a really tough game, Wolves are doing so unbelievably well, they are so different to everything else you face. Klopp praised his captain Henderson, who scored the opener and set up the winner. I am not sure when Hendo became involved in offensive set-pieces.
I was hope that this match will have option over 3, on asian goals, but never mind - I will take this one, who is really more risky, but also, very very real. First fact here is fact that this two rivals are in last match played very interesting match with four goals, in who was 2-2, so I hope in same story and here. Maziya is team who is not played too efficient in last period, but Abahani was brilliant, from that side - in five of last six matches, they are played with three or more goals. It will be same and today.
Wednesday's hosts come into this match having won each of their last four games. Not only have they won four on the bounce, but they've impressed in the final third, scoring ten goals, notching two or more in three out of four. Their recent home win against Zamalek, who're currently up in 4th place, bodes well ahead of a match against a visiting side that has been struggling of late.

Athletic have conceded just eight goals in total from their 13 matches this season which puts them at the top of the defensive charts alongside Atletico Madrid, and Garitano's side are likely to approach this Sunday's clash with the main aim of keeping their powder dry.
Undoubtedly, The Citizens’ biggest weakness this season is in the defensive areas of the pitch. They have conceded an average of 1.14 goals per game in the league, and away from home they have managed just two clean sheets in seven attempts. Of course, they have found the net in all seven of these games as well, treating the neutrals to some enthralling and entertaining matches.
Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele is expected to be out for about 10 weeks with a thigh injury sustained in Wednesday's Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund. The 22-year-old France international will miss a host of matches, including the rearranged La Liga game against Real Madrid on 18 December. Tests have confirmed Dembele has a muscle injury in his right thigh. Dembele has suffered several injuries since arriving from Dortmund in 2017.
Coming into the season hoping to keep pace with Rangers and Celtic, it's fair to say Aberdeen have underwhelmed thus far and now face a battle to secure a Europa League slot. Currently 4th and 2 points behind Motherwell, The Dons need to pick their form up and show greater consistency over the second half of the campaign.
Rooney was highly influential in the tie from a deep-lying midfield role. Rooney influenced the game a lot because you could see his experience," Cocu said of the ex-England captain. I think he did very good; he played a more controlled position. A big part of the success today is the combination between him and Tom Huddlestone - it was a pleasure to watch.

Hi! Aston Villa and Newcastle comes ahead of the 13th round of the English Premier League match. I believe that we can expect an interesting game where both opponents could win. So, it would be nice to catch them both scoring as well in this clash. In their last 5 league matches, Aston Villa won twice and lost on three occasions. In their last 5 league matches, they netted 9 goals and allowed 9, so I think that they will score this time as well too. Meanwhile, in their last 5 league matches, Newcastle recorded 3 victories, 1 draw and 1 loss, with 7 scored goals! Nice! Predict - both teams will score at any time and DRAW! Good game!
It was a disappointing outcome for Bournemouth, who had done all they could in their game to give them hope of staying up. Eddie Howe's side looked determined to fight for their survival right from the outset and deservedly went ahead when Joshua King scored from the penalty spot after Richarlison handled inside the area. Bournemouth could have had a second penalty soon for a handball by Lucas Digne but neither the referee or the video assistant referee felt there was an infringement.
Wednesday's win over Wolves took them to seventh and now they host Chelsea who are third in the Premier League. United didn't make a good re-start earning just a single point from their first three league games and being kocked out of the FA Cup. It looked as if they might even slip out of the top ten but have since won seven points from their last three matches, including home wins over Tottenham and Wolves.
No one will get the ball off that midfield so need for defensive-minded clowns. Combine the front three and you have the perfect centre forward. Tony Pulis is there to stand up at press conferences and intimidate anyone who fancies giving it and to occasionally sort out the defensive set-up and at a push headbutt someone if they give it large about the Christmas party.
But you could understand the referee not giving it: he was 30-odd yards away and Batshuayi was probably shielding the worst of the offence, but then the VAR had chance to review the footage, looked carefully at Maguire’s studs disappear into Batshuayi’s ‘personal space’ and decided “nah, that’s fine.
Rotherham have a good defensive record at home, but they too have conceded their fair share of goals of late, so plumping for them to keep a clean sheet doesn't appeal. Fortunately for them, they've got lots to offer going forward. Crucially, more than Saturday's visitors.

He felt Rudiger had made a meal of their clash and said he should have had a yellow card for his initial challenge on Son. We were looking for a goal and instead of a goal comes a red card," he said. When you have the situation with Son and Rudiger it's not a clear and obvious mistake by the referee.
The loss ended a run of four straight wins for Nimes and was also the first time in five matches that their defence was breached more than once. They have scored in each of the last five matches and have netted two or more in three of the five, while keeping two clean sheets. They have failed to score once in the last five home matches but with four wins in five home matches and three clean sheets, they will look at this as a game they can push for three points in.

That was evident after the 2-2 draw with Newcastle last month when Everton threw away a two-goal lead deep into injury time. Instead of another volley of criticism, though, Ancelotti added perspective by referring to how his AC Milan team threw away a three-goal lead in the 2005 Champions League final against Liverpool. There are things in football you cannot control," he said. Simplifying tactics and keeping the faithMuch of Ancelotti's success so far has come by simplifying how his team plays and leaning on those who are already established at the club.

And that English football could be shut down for around six months - with potentially devastating impacts on the game. Football authorities in England and Europe are braced for a total shutdown of the game until at least September, amid fears that scores of clubs could go out of business and the sport could be sent into meltdown.
Sheffield United were the overwhelming bookies' favourites to suffer immediate relegation to the Championship following their impressive promotion, but under Wilder they have defied expectations to instead find themselves fifth in the table. The job Wilder has done is even more impressive when you consider the limited budget he has at the Blades and how he has managed to turn players who rarely excelled in the Football League into very solid Premier League performers.
Not even in my wildest dreams could I have imagined this. I have to thank the club. I'm excited about this challenge and this project. He added: "Yesterday, I was walking around my home town with cows around me and now I'm here at Barcelona managing the best players in the world.
