The biggest pockets in football and the genius of Sir Alex Ferguson gave them a powerful competitive advantage. But they weren’t putting up 100-point seasons. The three highest points tallies in top-flight history have all been recorded in the past two seasons: 100 (Man City, 2017-18), 98 (Man City, 2018-19) and 97 (Liverpool, 2018-19).
There was informal contact to gauge the extent of sacked ex-Arsenal boss Unai Emery's interest, while Bournemouth's Eddie Howe is another manager with admirers in the Everton boardroom. Howe, however, insists he is committed to the Cherries and is unlikely to leave mid-season - while Spaniard Marcelino is another out-of-work coach looking for a route back into football after he was sacked by Valencia earlier this season.
Huesca are unbeaten in the last 4 rounds, in which they drew 2 and lost 2. At this time on the ranking, the host is currently ranked fourth with 39 points after 23 rounds. However, their gap with the top teams is very small and they can absolutely compete for a promotion next season. Lugo is extremely difficult to get a secure position on the chart. Meanwhile, Huesca is one of the leading candidates for the ticket back to La Liga. With a huge difference in qualification, Huesca will be determined to win this match. Huesca's last 5 meetings with Lugo only lost 1 and won 3 times.

Fernandes will wear the number 18 shirt - recently vacated by club captain Ashley Young who left for Inter Milan - and most famously worn by United great Paul Scholes.

What is also pleasing is the number of goals that Southend have been scoring of late. Campbell's men have notched nine in their last five, scoring twice in each of their last four. They're still surrendering lots at the other end, but now that they're scoring with regularity, they're at east picking up a few points. Unfortunately, they need more than just a few points here and there, as they're 13 points shy of safety.
They usually bounce back a lot quicker than this and I have been waiting for Sean Dyche to turn things around - I am sure it will happen this week though. Lawro's prediction: 2-1Tom's prediction: Leicester love playing these lower teams. Liverpool v Man Utd (16:30 GMT)United got their tactics spot on against Liverpool last time but their issue is that, in midfield, they are just not strong enough. When I look at what they have got in that department, I am largely thinking 'that's why they have got so many problems' because the days of them having strong, competitive midfielders are gone.

We had chances to win the game but we weren't clinical enough. They have a front four that can hurt anyone, that's why we had to get forward and defend on the front foot.

Le Puy will play against Bastia Borgo in the France national league. The hosts are not in good shape and I think they will have a very tough game here and I also think they will not be able to get whole 3 points. . Le Puy won their reverse fixture against Bastia by 6-2 score line, but in this fixture I think Bastia will make it very hard for them. My bet here is draw. Bastia have been good defensively and have drawn 2 of their last 3 matches. They will make it very hard for the hosts here in this match.

Match of England Premier League. Liverpool will play at home with team Watford. I will take guests with AH +0.5 here. Hosts are unbeaten in Premier League. It will be not easy to continue the same way. Every next team is very determined to stop this series. This season teams loki Arsenal or Tottenham didn't win with Watford. Most of people are waiting for defeat from Liverpool with Man UTD or Man City. But sensation will be with weak team. I predict guest win her. But my bet will be on Watford how asian handicap.

Having transitioned into coaching towards the end of his playing career, Barker had been working as Under-18s manager at League Two side Forest Green. We're all heartbroken to hear this news which came as a shock to everybody," said Hannah Dingley, Forest Green head of academy. Our immediate thoughts are with his family and friends.
As you'd expect, this sort of news is manna from heaven for the social media world. With under 12 hours between the announcement of Pochettino's departure and the confirmation of Jose Mourinho's appointment it was a rollercoaster on social media. Here's a look at the good, the sad and the remarkable from an extraordinary few hours on Twitter. First rumblings of newsCredit where credit's due, Matt Law and John Percy of the Telegraph had been reporting that Pochettino's days might be numbered before the news officially broke.
But I think it's just about making sure that they work as hard as we did when we didn't have anything to make sure that they carry on that culture and environment to work harder. I believe that you get nowhere without working hard or trying your best. If you cut corners, I don't think you'll get there, so it's just making sure that's a development stage and for the youth now.
Union Berlin looked poor before the league was postponed with a 1-1-3 record in the last 5 matches conceding 12 goals. However, they did score in each of the 5 matches and in the 3 Bundesliga home matches after the winter break they scored 2 goals in each match.
La League is back. Seville takes Betis. Teams from the same city, that is, the Seville derby awaits us. Even without considering the tournament motivation, only this fact, according to my calculations, here increases the likelihood of an effective match, despite the absence of fans in the stands. The hosts are fighting for the Champions Four, for which there are a lot of applicants, and losing points with any opponent is doubly undesirable. Guests from the tournament point of view feel confident and in this match they can take risks, attack with great forces and strive to win the match first of all, and not to lose by putting a “bus”. In general, I believe that rested and motivated teams will play effectively.
The result sees Jurgen Klopp's men set a new club record of 17 away league matches without a loss and leaves them well on course for a first top-flight title since 1990. The Merseysiders are now 35 league games unbeaten and are 13 points clear with a game in hand on the Foxes. Leicester remain second despite a first home loss in 12 matches, but could drop to third if Manchester City avoid defeat at Wolves on Friday night.
Roma and Torino will face each other in the upcoming match in the Serie A. Roma this season have the following results: 10W, 5D and 2L. Meanwhile Torino have 6W, 3D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

It had to be done to give an extra five, six weeks to the domestic competitions to finish," he said. If you assess what's happening with the Belgium national team, it's that we had a perfect qualification campaign. We were the best in qualification with 30 points out of 10 games. We felt we were physically and mentally in a very good moment to go into a big tournament. Now that's not the next stage.

Union Berlin is the newly promoted team, they won the final promotion ticket after the play-off, obviously the team of coach Urs Fischer is the lowest rated in the Bundesliga this season. However, what they show is not so, Union Berlin is 11th in the rankings with 30 points, a very high position compared to their ability and full of hope of relegation success. Next to the very strong Bayern Munich team at home, the goal of Union Berlin is just a draw, but most likely they could not do it and lost with a strong score. Bayern Munich started off relatively slowly this season, which is why coach Niko Kovac was fired and replaced by Hans-Dieter Flick. However, up to this point of the season, Bayern Munich has returned to his familiar top position with a very high performance before the tournament was suspended. In this return, most likely Bayern Munich still show their strength and easily win against Union Berlin.
Betis is generally very good team but they are not playing too good. They are have very good players in all lines but team is not on good level with football. I was watched them in fantastic duel against Barcelona at home, in Andalusia also, when they are lead two times, but finally, they are lost that duel 2-3. I believe that this match will be similar and efficient. Real Madrid is favorite, but they are prepare for Champions League and match against Manchester City (1-2). I believe in very interesting duel tonight and I surely see goals on both sides.

In terms of a correct score tip, we do not expect this one to be a particularly high scoring affair. The hosts have scored an average of 1.31 goals per game and conceded almost as frequently. Meanwhile, 33% of Bradford’s away matches have finished in a 1-1 draw so far this season. It is a result which we believe will be repeated this weekend.
