Respected by team-mates and opponents alike for his demanding nature and range of skills, Keane is widely regarded as one of the best midfielders to have graced the Premier League. Wright: "For me he was the best captain in the Premier League. When you look at what he did with the 'Class of 92', the great players around him, the consistency of his performances, without compromising what he was about, and his morals, I have so much admiration for Roy Keane.
West Ham went down 4th defeat in their last 5 league games coupled with 1-2 loss at home against Leicester last league game in a bad result that saw Coach Manuel Pellegrini thrown out. Although they will have the perfect time to archive 3 available points against out of form Bournemouth side that picked just 4 points from available 27 points at stake.
Nothing special to say about this straight forward bet, Lida to win or draw away, it's a pretty safe one and of value at 1,45. Its real price should be at 1,31 so, we have value indeed. Lida does not lose to Smorgon since 2016, so I guess we don't have to go much further to realize this is a pretty good bet. You can risk by betting on a Lida's win but there is a big chance of this match ending up 1 x 1. The last result at Smorgon's was 0 x 0 last year. So I'll bet safely DC X2
Man City win third Carabao Cup in a row Third straight EFL Cup win shows incredible consistency - Guardiola It would have been easy for his eyes to light up and take the chance himself when he received Rodri's pass at the far post. Not a bit of it - he saw Aguero in a more advantageous place and cut the ball back for the master marksman to complete the formalities. Foden was a thorn to Aston Villa left-back Matt Targett all day, coming close to scoring and even showing the audacity and confidence for a bit of ball juggling as he advanced down the right flank in the second half.
Straighter backs. Higher shoulders. Barely-repressed smiles. Or more specifically: Mesut Özil sprinting around like Gennaro Gattuso, and David Luiz strolling around like Franco Baresi. No wonder poor United looked a bit confused. United also looked confused because they are, well, quite confused: when Plan A (“have some quick lads”) doesn’t work they default to Plan B (“have Anthony Martial dribble around the entire defence”), and when that doesn’t work they lose.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was buoyant after restricting United to a 1-0 first-leg advantage in the Champions League semi-final and the home fans were optimistic inside Emirates Stadium before the kick-off in glorious evening sunshine. Ronaldo changed all that inside 11 minutes, crossing for Park Ji-sung to score before unleashing a quite astonishing 40-yard free-kick with his right foot from a wide position, struck with such power from an unusual stance that Arsenal keeper Manuel Almunia was totally deceived by its pace, only moving when it was too late.
Figueiredo's was the second unfortunate own goal of the game, Kyle Bartley having also put through his own net from Sammy Ameobi's cross to make it 1-1 at the break following Callum Robinson's stylish, curled opener. Forest were convinced Ameobi had been fouled in the build-up to Figueiredo's goal, but referee Keith Stroud allowed play to continue and, after the Baggies broke upfield, the Portuguese defender could only divert Jake Livermore's drilled cross past keeper Brice Samba.
Lechia is playing good this season and still have chances to get the qualification to the Europa league by the Polish Cup. The team has remained undefeated in 4 of the last 5 game and have 49 points while the Jagiellonia have remained undefeated in 4 games and won against Cracovia. The hosts played against Legia at home in the last game, while Lechia does not present a stable form. It is hard to expect many chances from guests in Bialystok, especially that this season they have already lost 3: 0 here, and in Gdańsk they only managed to draw a goalless. The only obstacle for Jaga may be injuries in the team, so a draw cannot be ruled out in this match.
Isloch 2 will host Slutsk 2 for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors are favorites in this game. Slutsk 2 are in solid shape. They have two consecutive victories. In any case, they have the motivation to continue with the winning results. In previous game Slutsk 2 is won 5-1 against Brest 2. Also, we have Isloch 2 who's is not very good team at the start of the new campaign. The hosts are more vulnerable team. They have two consecutive losses. In previous game Isloch 2 lost 2-3 against Smolevichi 2. I think, the visitors will closer to victory.

But Wednesday suffered a setback when the Scotland international was carried off on a stretcher with a knee injury early in the second half, replaced by Sam Winnall. Brighton, who saw Shane Duffy's header saved on the goal-line, fell behind in the 65th minute as the Owls gained a free-kick on the edge of the penalty area. Jacob Murray nudged the ball to Winnall, he stopped it and passed it to Reach, who was able to strike at goal, with a deflection taking it past Button.
The game is played in front of a capacity crowd at Anfield, including about 3,000 travelling Atletico fans. March Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta tests positive for coronavirus and their weekend Premier League fixture against Brighton is postponed. In response, the Premier League announces it will hold an "emergency club meeting" to discuss future fixtures. Three Leicester first-team players also go into self-isolation after displaying symptoms of coronavirus.
Home form isn’t helping them in their battle against relegation. Only one of their last ten home league games has been won. With home fixtures against both Watford and Aston Villa, their form at the London Stadium is going to be crucial. The same applies to their defending with only one clean sheet in their last ten league matches.
Still, Arteta is a highly-rated young coach and one that Arsenal probably should have appointed instead of Unai Emery a couple of years ago anyway. Will he be the man to solve all of Arsenal’s problems? Maybe, and he undoubtedly has some exceptional players at his disposal. But equally will he just be eaten by the gaping yaw of Arsenal’s infinite sadness? After the club was allowed to decay in the final Arsene Wenger years and are now owned by a man whose interest in running things basically extends to sending his son to peruse things every now and then, will he actually make any difference? Who knows.
Nevertheless the Burnley keeper was in brilliant form against Liverpool. He may not have kept a clean sheet but the game would have been well out of Burnley's reach had it not been for the England international. Questions are now being posed about whether Pope should be England's number one goalkeeper. Based on his performance against Liverpool there is no question about it. The answer is yes. Did you know? Pope made eight saves against Liverpool, his most in a single Premier League match this season.
Regar Tadaz is going to face Istaravshan for the third leg of the Tajikistan league. Regar got two points after three matches and scored only two goals and conceded three. The visitors lost two matches in a row where they conceded five goals and scored only one. In the previous season, Regar was strong team and they ended in a high position. The visitors were a team from the bottom of the table and this season will not be better. Istaravshan got low-quality players and they should lose this clash. Regar needs points and they should win against Istaravshan. They beat them 5:2 in the previous meeting.
Since winning their first ever game in the Champions League knockout stages (3-1 v Chelsea in 2011-12), Napoli have failed to win any of their last four games outside of the group stage (D1 L3), with three of those coming against Spanish opponents.

The City boss carried on picking Sane for most of the 2018-19 campaign - on 3 January, Sane scored the winner against Liverpool. Guardiola's assessment in Chicago was only in keeping with the tough-love approach he employed with the laid-back Sane almost from the moment the pair came together in 2016, following his £37m move from Schalke when he was just 20. In January 2017, Guardiola delivered what was described as a "brutal" dressing down to Sane after he had attended a New Year's Eve party and turned up late for training the following day.

The press box was packed, not a seat to be had. Yes, all the other broadcasters and written journalists can hear you when you go big for a goal. Who cares? Not me. It felt strange knowing we had a seven-second jump on the TV pictures, especially when the radio show itself was coming from a Leicester pub that had 700 people inside. We were offering the best and worst spoiler in sport history. Our presenter at the time, Jason Bourne, was anchoring the coverage with the noises of hopeful Foxes and former pros in the background.

Older Spurs fans could be forgiven for going all misty-eyed about Osvaldo Ardiles and Ricardo Villa, the Argentine duo who shook up English football when they arrived to a ticker-tape welcome at White Hart Lane in 1978.
