The Cumbrians have only managed three wins on home soil so far in the league this season and after failing to find the back of the net in each of their previous three home league matches, it is easy to see why. It is not as if that is a record which has just been a recent issue either as they have failed to score in half of their league matches at Brunton Park this term.
Valencia and Atalanta to play behind closed doorsAll Italian sport to be be played behind closed doorsThe decision to play the match in an empty stadium comes after Spain's health ministry announced it wants to avoid "large gatherings of fans" in an effort to contain the spread of coronavirus. With no home support, Albert Celades' side face a huge challenge to progress to a first Champions League quarter-final since 2007, with just four of 36 sides ever overcoming a first-leg deficit of three or more goals.
Strange odds for this match, I think there is a huge value on this double chance bet at 1,50. Real price should be as low as 1,27. Mikashevichi is way stronger than Volna and they are way underrated for this match, especially at home.
The mood,” said Andy Cole in Andy Mitten’s book Glory Glory!, “was almost like the preparation for a third-round Milk Cup tie at some third division club. Ferguson’s good cheer was briefly interrupted when he administered the hairdryer to a group of fans who were around the hotel and, in his eyes, interrupting the players’ preparation.
That will sort it out and you will no longer have decisions about millimetres and a fraction of the attacker being in front of the defensive line. Each of the four Home Nations - England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - has one of the eight votes, with FIFA holding the other four. Any law change needs six votes in favour to go through.
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is prepared for the "circus" that will accompany Jose Mourinho's return to the Premier League. Eleven months after being sacked by United, Mourinho returns to the dugout at the London Stadium on Saturday when his new Tottenham side play West Ham. Spurs limited access to Mourinho's first news conference on Thursday and turned away scores of journalists.

That would bring two extra clubs into the structure and two more mouths to feed. A big negative for some. There's still a chance of it going through for one season only with the structure reverting to normal the season after, but it would be a very tight decision. Budge won't be banking on it, that's for sure. If the SPFL resolution passes then the three lower leagues are over for this season, but the Premiership will remain unsettled for now.

Liverpool scored in their 29th consecutive game in the Premier League; only two teams have ever recorded a longer scoring streak in the competition - Arsenal between 2001 and 2002 (55) and Manchester United between 2007 and 2008 (36). Can they surpass, then match, Arsenal’s Invincibles? Liverpool fans will be hesitant to utter the ‘I’ word given there are still 18 league matches to go.
Sadio Mane's goal restored Liverpool's 13-point lead over Leicester City at the top of the table but it was only confirmed after a lengthy VAR review to check for a possible handball by Adam Lallana in the build-up. We're in December and coming into January. Players standing around that long is not good," Liverpool boss Juergen Klopp said.
Much like their hosts at home, Linfield have taken a more subdued approach on their travels. While Cliftonville's explosive efforts have come away from home, Linfield's attacking strength's have tended to come to the fore at home instead of on the road. The visitors have still scored a respectable 16 goals on their travels, though five teams have scored more. Fortunately, Linfield have the best defensive record away from home.
That prompted one Wales fan to print a flag, which he displayed at November's Euro 2020 qualifier against Hungary, reading: "Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order. After Wales beat Hungary to seal qualification, Bale was handed the banner and was pictured holding it alongside his team-mates. Gareth Bale and his Wales team-mates celebrate Euro 2020 qualification with the now infamous bannerIt did not go down well.
Lok. Plovdiv awaits the winner of this second time in the Semis of the cup competition, in the final after they defeated Levski in a double leg ended yesterday. And the first leg between CSKA Sofia and Botev Plovdiv was indeed a very boring one with the hosts mainly concerned of not conceding, of course they would not have minded scoring and taking a lead in this return leg, but as things start they still hold a pretty decent chance of reaching the final.
The first leg of Serie A this season, Napoli was held 1-1 by Spal. However, this second leg, Spal is hard to promise to continue to not lose because Napoli is played at home, the force and style are very stable.
This is just the fifth FA Cup meeting between City and Arsenal, with City winning the first in February 1904, and Arsenal winning the next three (March 1932, February 1971 and April 2017). ArsenalArsenal are playing in their 30th FA Cup semi-final - no side has played in more. They've reached the final on 20 occasions, which is also a joint record (level with Manchester United for both). Arsenal have beaten/eliminated the holders of the FA Cup each of the past five times they've faced them, and this is their first such match since the 2014 semi-final against Wigan Athletic.
Given the circumstances of this match, goals catch the eye. Specifically, 'Over 2.5 Goals & Both Teams to Score' stands out. Leverkusen did fail to notch in the reverse fixture, but they've not misfired at home in this competition, notching a total of three goals. The fact that they attacked well and scored two goals against Atletico Madrid at this venue bodes well. What's more, the visitors haven't been as effective at the back when playing away from home, as they conceded away against both Atletico Lokomotiv. At least three goals have also been scored in four of Juve's five Group D matches, as well as each of their two travelling games. Add in that the hosts must make this an open game as they go for the win and backing the goals to arrive starts to make plenty of appeal.
For the second season running, they are Serie A's highest scorers. Just before the second leg with Valencia on 10 March, Italian sport was suspended and the country was put on lockdown. Atalanta were allowed to travel to Spain, to play behind closed doors. Around 2,000 Valencia fans gathered outside their Mestalla Stadium. They could be heard cheering as Valencia came from behind to lead 3-2, only for La Dea to win 4-3 on the night, Josip Ilicic scoring all four.

The Premier League is on hold, indefinitely, along with most of the rest of the world. When - if - it does resume, Norwich City will be the side propping up the rest of the Premier League. The Canaries' haul of 21 points from their 29 games so far may not tell the whole story, with Daniel Farke's side consistently proving good to watch this season. Former Norwich striker Chris Sutton called them "the best ever team to have been bottom of the Premier League" earlier in the season - but is he right?And who do you think were the best worst side out of this lot? You can decide at the bottom.
It might only have been five days, but it has felt like five weeks. Can it really only have been last Wednesday that the SPFL proposed its plan to call an early halt to the Scottish season?With the game shut down since 10 March - and unlikely to resume until the start of August at best - attention had turned to how to conclude the current campaign. But what followed has been claim and counterclaim, melded with rumour and innuendo.
