The ball had barely nestled in the net when the soundtrack to Leeds' recent collapses rang out among the home fans. Leeds are falling apart', they crowed, delighting in their opponents' misery. The blow of Casilla's blunder was softened by an error from Brentford keeper David Raya which allowed Liam Cooper to equalise, but the draw was not what Leeds needed after last week's 2-0 loss at Nottingham Forest.

Riyad Mahrez became the fifth player to have played for Leicester in the Premier League and then score against the Foxes in the competition, after Julian Joachim, Emile Heskey, Chris Wood and N'Golo Kante. Mahrez had 10 shots in this match, the most by a player in a single Premier League game since Andre Schurrle against Burnley in August 2018 (11). His leveller for Manchester City was the 500th Premier League goal scored this season.
The two sides have been among the most impressive so far this term and we’re predicting that will continue with the goal threat at either end leading to plenty of chances. The firepower of Maclaren should give the visitors the edge and despite thinking both teams will score, we’re also backing Melbourne City to come out victorious. This is an indication Western Sydney Wanderers are by no means much weaker than their opponents but just lack the quality in the final third to match their opponents.
Cagliari have gone nine league games without a win. Napoli have won two of their last three away league matches. Napoli have only lost two of their last nine away league fixtures. Cagliari are on a bad run of form at the moment and have slipped down to eighth in Serie A. This weekend they host Napoli who are three places and two points behind their opponents.
Alaves is 3-1-0 in their last 4 home games and every time they met opponents higher than them in the league standings and even so won 2-1 with both Bilbao and Eibar, my bad, Eibar is near the relegation places but can be a tricky opponent as I watched them play very well after the break away at top side Real Madrid. But drew 1-1 with Valencia and won after the break with a very decent Real Sociedad with 2-0 at home as well.
Belarusian football has never known this level of international attention. The decision to continue playing, when all major football competitions across Europe have been suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic, has made it the go-to for fans craving live action. The Belarusian authorities have dismissed pandemic warnings as "psychosis" and have not officially enforced a lockdown in the country, with the pro-government media playing down fears about the spread of Covid-19.
On taking the Betis job, Setien revealed in an interview with El Periodico that despite his love for football he didn't really understand it "until I saw the football of Johan Cruyff". It was with coaches like him when I began to get it," he continued. When to touch the ball, to pass, the spaces. I try to communicate to the players, to keep the ball and to run as little as possible after it. He added he would have had his little finger cut off to be given the chance to play for one of Cruyff's sides, "not because I wanted to be a Barcelona footballer, but rather because of the way they played because I could see just how much the footballers were enjoying themselves".

What they discovered was that English players’ success rate of 61. However, their conversion rate for penalties during games in World Cups and European Championships (90%) and in European leagues (75%) are above the overall averages of 78.

If Mourinho can persuade the midfielder his future is best served under him at Spurs, he may be the difference between securing Champions League football for next season or missing out altogether.

Under his current boss, Vardy has scored 22 league goals. That’s six more than any other player has managed in that time. He’s also topping the scoring charts for the current season, hitting 10 goals in his last eight matches to take control of the golden boot race.

It is not like being a Yankees fan, man!"So I saw Liverpool's title win was a great sports story of resilience and having to wait so long for that moment. But I understand that sort of fandom where Everton fans are unhappy about it because as a North Carolina basketball fan - that's where Michael Jordan went to school - that's what I grew up with too. Our college rivals were this team called Duke and they just had to lose.

Andrew Welfle, from the University of Manchester, said governing bodies and teams must combat climate change by curbing air travel and finding alternative methods for their frequent flier players to reduce CO2 emissions.
We can’t rely on the NHS being funded by charities or people making donations – it’s nice that such individuals and organisations are doing so, and I’m full of praise for those who are doing it – but the work they’re doing is quite incredible and needs adequate resourcing. The praise they’re getting however enormous it is, will never be enough.

Aston Villa have won three of their last five home games. Aston Villa have only lost one of their last five home games in this competition. Liverpool are fielding a vastly inexperienced side.

L-carnitine was given intravenously - administered via four injections totalling 13. This volume, as planned, was well below the 50ml permitted during a six-hour period. I have not contravened any Wada or Ukad rules and I have always acted in the best interests of those I treat. My due diligence checks were thorough - this is standard process, and was necessary as it was the first time I had been asked to administer L-carnitine.
Meanwhile, as evidenced by the dozens of videos that abound on social networks, the Italians stick together, figuratively. The Bergamo club had just been through a more than hectic week.

Sofia is pregnant and cannot go out. Photos have been taken of the two having fun, but they are in Spain. Here was the headline run on Puls Online. OTAC LUKE JOVIĆA: "AKO TREBA DA IDE U ZATVOR, NEKA IDE U ZATVOR"! LUKA JOVIC'S FATHER: "IF HE HAS TO GO TO PRISON, LET HIM GO TO THE PRISON"! The takeaway here is that Jovic senior has said that his son is innocent, not that he should go to prison, which in the Warm-Up's humble opinion would have generated a fair few click in its own right.
The best week since I've been here'Arteta has made a positive impact at Arsenal since taking over from Unai Emery in December. Sunday's win means they remain unbeaten in 2020 and gives them back-to-back league victories for the first time since the opening two matches of the campaign. It also means they have won three games in the past week, having won at Newcastle before beating Olympiakos in the first leg of their Europa league last-32 tie on Thursday.
On a simple, surface level, stripping Premier League seasons of their final nine games inevitably leads to the loss of many of the division's defining moments. The most obvious example being the one that usually tops most people's "greatest" list - Sergio Aguero's winner against QPR from practically the final kick of the 2011-12 season. As well as losing perhaps the most dramatic single moment in the league's history, ending that season with nine games left would also likely have denied City their maiden Premier League title, handed the trophy to Sir Alex Ferguson's side and altered the course of history.

January is coming, and with it the transfer window. Frank Lampard, having returned to Chelsea promising sweet lemonade from transfer ban lemons, has the opportunity to spend and, perhaps, the motive. With Leicester now seven points ahead of the west Londoners, and City looking to make it eight today, Chelsea are no longer looking forward but back over their shoulder.
The hosts are in impressive form with 3 wins in a row in which they conceded just one goal and it happened last round when they played Austria Vienna II who was in top form prior to meeting Steyr at home but lost the game with no less than 4-1 in the end.

Wolves have the second worst first-half record in the Premier League - managing just 14 goals in opening 45 minutes"Some fans are starting to get a bit greedy. Six years ago we were in League One. After a second season in the Premier League, they want the Champions League. No club has used fewer players than Wolves in the Premier League this season, Nuno sticking with a tight-knit group of 20. Nine have made 30 or more league starts while six - Coady, Dendoncker, Raul Jimenez, Joao Moutinho, Ruben Neves and Rui Patricio - have featured in all 37.

Brisbane Roar have found it difficult to hold down any form in recent weeks, alternating between wins and losses over the past five match weeks and this has led to them falling to 9th in the league, just about keeping in touch with the top six but not being able to draw clear of the very bottom of the league. A couple of wins in a row would really help the side to climb the table but they are struggling for consistency.
Cantwell: This lad has made my team of the week before and I'm not surprised he's done it again. His performance away at Everton was outstanding. However, this was a bad result for Everton and even worse for Marco Silva. Liverpool are taking the Premier League by storm - meanwhile, on the other side of Stanley Park, their neighbours are hovering above the relegation zone. While Cantwell is a player, Everton have too many big names not producing big enough performances.

Grenoble is also trying to get into a playoff zone and if they want to do it they surely needs to win games at home versus opponents like chatearoux, visitors somehow beat the lens in last round and which is even more surprising their pretty bad offense scored 3 goals, and I m sure tonight they can't score more than one and even that one goal is questionable, on the other hand Grenoble finally managed to get a victory at home and overall they are in very good shape so I think they are pretty huge favorites to win this game tonight
