Fulham will go into the game six points behind second-placed West Bromwich Albion, with the Bees four points further back in fourth. The Baggies face a Birmingham City side without a win in six games in the same round - so if Fulham fail to get three points, there could be a nine-point gap between the top two and the rest with eight games to go. Round 38: Saturday, 20 June (15:00 BST)If ever there was a "must-not-lose" game to kick off the run-in, it's this one.
There is so much attacking talent on display for both teams that its hard to see anything other than goals in this game and we're backing a goal fest with the 3.5 goal line being beaten. With lines up expected to feature Benzema, Rodrygo, Icardi and Mbappe there should be plenty of chances at either end of the pitch and we're hoping the goals will fly in.
Newcastle upped the pace after the break but Gayle's overhead kick from Miguel Almiron's cross and a Ritchie piledriver were the closest they came to breaking the deadlock. Chris Wood briefly livened up Burnley's challenge when he came on as a substitute but the man who had scored the winner in the corresponding fixture at Turf Moor in December was unable to earn Burnley their first league double over Newcastle for 59 years.
Van Basten apologised later in the programme while Fox said in a statement on Monday that the comment was "stupid and inappropriate" and that it had suspended the three-times Ballon d'Or winner until December 7. The channel added that Van Basten's wages for the week would be donated to the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation.
Looking at recent form, Rizespor will be the favorites in this clash, and they need to get something from it, to be sure of survival. Fenerbahce have nothing much to play for here and though they will be at home, we don’t expect a dominant display from them. The hosts have not been the best performers in the first half for most of their last 17 matches and with nothing much to gain here, we don’t see them getting motivated for a fast start. On the other hand, there is a prize for Rizespor from this game and we will expect them to be lively from the start; they have not trailed at half time in their last four games and we expect the same here. The only issue for Rizespor though is that they are not the best to bank on when playing away, and that, placed against Fenerbahce’s home form, a good pick would be for this to end in a Half time/Full time draw.

Neville had been set to lead Team GB into this summer's Olympic Games, before taking control of England at the Women's Euros on home soil in 2021. But that tournament is moving to July 2022. What Neville saidOn his appointment: "I didn't get it by default. I didn't just get handed the keys to women's football. This is not something that has been plucked from the top of a tree. I had to undergo stringent tests and presentations, six- and seven-hour interviews with the Football Association, psychometric profiling - it was a long process.

It is of little secret that Europe’s premier competition is an obsession of both the club and its manager. Real, by contrast, are currently neck-and-neck with old foes Barcelona at the top of Liga.

Testing costs concernPratley is also concerned about the cost of coronavirus safety measures after Charlton head coach Lee Bowyer said the club "can't afford testing, especially twice a week" under the new protocols.

Is he right? Maybe, he has a point on all of the above. But as yet it’s unclear whether this stuttering iteration of Spurs is down to Mourinho’s influence (which his detractors will have you believe) or due to the “painful transition” that his predecessor hinted at last summer. Because this is a Spurs side lacking an identity.
United dealt transfer blow as top target close to contract renewal Manchester United target James Maddison is close to agreeing a new contract at Leicester City, according to the Telegraph.

Read: Rob Green discusses life as a third-choice keeperSteven Caulker to LiverpoolSteven Caulker's move to Liverpool came as a surprise in January 2016 when he joined on loan from Championship side QPR. He had been on loan at Southampton but he was being kept out of the team by Virgil van Dijk - so the Saints were happy for him to leave and go to Anfield. Signed because of injuries, the then 24-year-old, whose career had stalled after one cap for England - he played in one FA Cup game for the Reds and as an 89th-minute substitute in two league games.

This latest collapse might leave them feeling that Aberdeen have conjured some sort of voodoo magic to ensure they will never be defeated at Rugby Park, especially given how emphatically Kilmarnock had rattled their opponents in the opening 25 minutes, and they finished the stronger too. They carved open Aberdeen's unconvincing defensive pairing of Ash Taylor and Mikey Devlin - starting in the absence of the injured Scott McKenna - at will.
Ancelotti said he thought the midfielder "didn't affect the vision of the goalkeeper". And he said he would be "disappointed" if the dismissal resulted in being banned for the trip to his former team Chelsea next Sunday.

Meanwhile, Birmingham have won at home to the three sides directly above bottom-side Wigan. So far this term, the Blues have won five of their six meetings at home to sides in the bottom half. They should be able to stop a Latics outfit who are losing far too many on the road for their own good. We expect the Blues to come out on top here, with Wigan just too poor on the road to get anything.
Fuelled by the fortune of billionaire Hiroshi Mikitani, owner of online shopping giant Rakuten, Kobe are finally on a roll after a faltering start to their quest to establish themselves as one of the leading clubs in Asia.

These teams played in scoreless draw last time when we expected a lot of goals to be scored. This could happen again with the away team scoring a lot and having a lot of goals scored against them in most recent matches. Because these matches have been high scoring does not mean we will see all these goals in this match. These sides seem to match up well against each other and last time they played the chances for scoring was not there for either of these sides, this could be exactly the same when they meet this week too
Special ones?It is harder to nail down iconic starting XIs the more recent you look, with managers increasingly rotating their sides to cope with the demands of the modern game. Jose Mourinho had the luxury of a large, expensively assembled and talented squad at his disposal during his first spell at Chelsea, but this is the XI that probably springs to mind, particularly from that 95-point season in 2004-05.
Tranmere, of League One, continue to battle relegation to the fourth tier of English football.

The Dutchman did well to tip over Moussa Djenepo's well-struck effort from 25 yards, but it was not long before Norwich conceded again.

The Reds are a much better team now, though, and Spurs are not quite the same either - although for a different reason. Without Kane, I don't know how Spurs will hurt Liverpool. Yes, Christian Eriksen can play but he is a free agent in the summer and able to talk to other clubs - is he really going to pull his finger out and run around with the possibility of getting injured? I am not sure about that.
HB Torshavn finished last season just below the top 3 places which allow a place in the European competition, but their attack was one of the best in the league scoring no less than 62 times and most of those goals came at home where they had a record of 10-2-2, best in the league actually, and also the most goals scored in home games with no less than 41 from their 62 goals coming in those 14 home games.
Odds are decent for taking the over 2.5 goals, it is a game from the relegation group which besides these two sides also includes Gandzasar, but I see no relegation while looking at this table as there is one club who retired during the normal season so perhaps that is the only team which will disappear from the first league level in Armenia. So should be a relaxed atmosphere, and I watched Urartu play attacking minded on the road before the normal season ended away from home at Ararat Yerevan being unlucky not to get anything out of that game but at the same time quite poor in defense losing with 1-0.

Orsha fc is running four games unbeaten against the visitors, they have successfully won their last home game against their rival by scoring three goals and conceding only one which means the game ended with 3-1 scoreline. Orsha fc have disappointed their fans when they lost their last game on the run to Slonim fc where they have conceded two goals and scored one goal so here at their home soil I think they will heal that wound they have sustained. The host seems to be good when they play at their home ground, they won their last home game against Lida fc by three goals to two.
