Since 2015, these teams have met nineteen times with the home team winning twelve the away team winning three and getting four draws during those meetings. Rapid only lost once at home against Mattersburg and it was as a result of an early four minute red card that changed the odds in favor of the away team. It is important also to note that these two coaches have only met once which ended in a five goal thriller with Rapid winning at Mattersburg. Rapid come out on full attack with 26 shots while their hosts had only 7 shots. It won't be any different today. Full attack it will be to make a home win.
The result lifts Saints four points clear of the relegation zone, while Palace stay ninth on 27 points. Saints slow out of the blocksSuperb back-to-back wins at Aston Villa and Chelsea had given Southampton a three-point cushion over the bottom three going into this game, but there was little for the home fans to cheer in a dire first half at St Mary's. Neither side managed to register a single shot on target, with Meyer's disallowed goal the closest either team came to breaking the deadlock before the interval.
Soon, there will be a meeting, we will establish the procedure which we will then communicate. We will start, I hope, at the beginning of the month (May) with tests to ensure that players are negative and the training can follow. Will we play through the summer? We don't have a deadline but the idea is to finish the championships.

After beating Bournemouth and West Ham United, 13th-placed Newcastle visit Villa Park with an opportunity to record three consecutive top-flight victories for the first time since Nov. The difference in a couple of weeks with a couple of wins is remarkable," Bruce said. They're (the players) bouncing around the place and training has been as lively as it has been.
Dortmund and Union Berlin will face each other in the upcoming match in the Bundesliga. Dortmund this season have the following results: 10W, 6D and 3L. Meanwhile Union Berlin have 7W, 2D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
West Brom are currently are second in the league behind Leeds. They have won last three matches on trot prior to this match and overall in 17 matches they have lost just once this season. They are yet to be beaten at home which shows their strength. Bristol City are also coming in this match unbeaten from last five matches and they have lost only two matches from 17 played so far and have drawn 8 matches from those 17 matches. Playing away they have lost only once so far from eight matches and that is why I am going for their double chance today.
Watford were ripped apart by City and that could still have happened with Pearson at the helm but his departure merely told Aston Villa that Watford were in a state of panic. Anyone who has been in football and found themselves in a relegation battle will tell you the last thing you need in your ranks is anyone showing the slightest sign of fear. Fear spreads through a football club like wildfire. More importantly it hands the initiative to your competitor.
Risking injury to Lionel Messi and co in whati is essentially meaningless for the visitors would make no sense and with the games set to come thick and fast over the season, Valverde's decision is fully justified, but also means we can't expect the Blaugrana to operate at the level they so typically hit.

First and foremost, all of us have to do whatever we can to protect one another - in society, I mean," he said in a statement on the club's official website. This should be the case all the time in life, but in this moment I think it matters more than ever. I’ve said before that football always seems the most important of the least important things.
Krzysztof Piatek, Samu Castillejo and Theo Hernandez scored for Milan, who are a modest 10th in Serie A after a miserable season, while veteran Zlatan Ibrahimovic stayed on the bench. Piatek ran onto Ismael Bennacer's pass to open the scoring after 20 minutes against Serie A's bottom-placed team, and the Pole then provided the pass for Castillejo to curl in the second one minute before halftime.
Olivier Giroud scored his first Premier League goal of the season - and his first since April - as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-1 to tighten their grip on fourth place.

Video - Messi: ‘I am the only one with six Ballon d’Ors… that makes me proud’00:55 22:00 - A comeback story That's nearly it from us tonight, but I just want to leave you with news of non-league Solihull Moors, who were 3-0 up after an hour of their second-round FA Cup tie tonight. Managed by former England goalkeeper Tim Flowers, they lost 4-3.
Romelu Lukaku scored twice as Inter Milan won at Udinese to maintain the pressure on Juventus at the top of Serie A. Inter remain second in the table, three points behind Juve who beat Fiorentina earlier on Sunday. Christian Eriksen, Ashley Young and on-loan Chelsea winger Victor Moses made their league debuts for the Nerazzurri. But it was Lukaku who ensured victory, scoring with a close-range shot before adding his second with a penalty.
Girondins Bordeaux will engage Olympique Nimes at home to decide if they join the international position for now, they are closely coming to their main objective that made them to make good transfer for this season, 5th in the league with 23 points same point with HCS Montpellier that is in 4th position, they have scored 21 goals against 17, winning in all 6 matches, 5 draws and 4 games lost. Last 4 games in the league unbeaten.
Bnei Yehuda is much better in away games than at home same can be said about the hosts here as the hosts won 15 points on the road while just 2 at home where they are 0-2-6 in the league alone so far this season this while Bnei Yehuda has a record of 3-4-2 on the road and won on their last visit here also with 1-0, but like I said above Bnei is really hard to beat on the road and with the hosts being really weak at home I have to take the away win in this one.
The 22-year-old, who was on Carlisle's books before moving to Old Trafford at the age of 14, had also made impressive saves from Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Otamendi and, in the end, he was unfortunate not to finish with a clean sheet. His overall performance, however, will have served only to boost his chances of being included in Gareth Southgate's England squad for this summer's European Championship.
Just 253 people attended, compared to last year when Neman's games drew crowds of around 1,500 people. The league has proved an unlikely draw for fans overseas who are starved of matches in their own countries. In choosing to stay open, it took its cue from President Alexander Lukashenko, who has resisted imposing strict lockdown measures.
The Athletic write that the priority of the member leagues is to finish the club season when it is safe to continue amid the coronavirus crisis, meaning the showcase international European event will be forced to be pushed back another year, prompting European footballs governing body to demand the huge sum.
So the issue isn't the disparity in quality between PSV and Ross County. Rather, it is the way that Aaygun96 crumbled in the last ten minutes of that initial game, surrendering a three-goal lead to draw 3-3. Although his play with the ball is impressive - luring out his opponent at a walking pace - he defended dangerously and was punished for it.
Levante forward Jose Luis Morales won the game with an unstoppable strike in the 79th minute, flummoxing Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois by blasting a first-time shot inside the near post from a tight angle. Real's first defeat in the league since October saw them fall to second place on 53 points after 25 games.
In addition, and despite their poor overall results, Southampton managed to find the net in each of their last seven away matches. With a consistent track record of netting in away fixtures, we think the Saints carry enough attacking threat to notch a consolation against a demonstrably porous Villa backline on Saturday.
The hosts are overall in better form and need the points more as they are 7 points away from the top 6 places at this moment but even drew away at Rapid Vienna in a really open game with plenty of scoring chances for both teams which ended 2-2 in the end, they won 5-0 at home against 5th placed Hartberg at home lately, or 2-1 against Mattersburg also at home recently.
Klopp not worried about the coronavirus (ending Liverpool’s title procession) Everyone is worried about the coronavirus, not least the producers of Corona beer who have apparently seen a stupid but depressingly predictable decline in sales due to people who can’t tell the difference between a disease and a beverage just because their names contain some of the same letters.
The Department for Education confirmed the scheme would not run during summer holidays: "As schools open more widely, and their kitchens reopen, we expect schools to make food parcels available for collection or delivery for any children that are eligible for free school meals who are not yet able to return to school. Where this is not possible, schools can continue to offer vouchers to eligible pupils.
Former Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti returns to Stamford Bridge as Everton manager on Sunday. The Toffees have improved significantly under the Italian, leaving them just eight points off Frank Lampard's Blues, who occupy the final Champions League qualifying spot.

It was boss Emma Hayes' biggest WSL win since her side thrashed Yeovil Town 8-0 in May, while Birmingham slip to second-bottom - albeit with a game in hand on some of their relegation rivals. Second-placed Manchester City scored three goals in the last 10 minutes to coast past winless Bristol City, with Pauline Bremer on target twice. England striker Ellen White also netted for the fourth time in five matches for club and country to keep City above Arsenal on goal difference.
Liverpool are big favorites here, but Watford could make a miracle. There are two reasons for my pick. First, Liverpool players are very tired, especially the full backs, as well as Van Dijk. According to the statistic, Van Dijk has played 1440 minutes in the Premier League, meaning he fully played all 16 matches (16 x 90 minutes = 1440 minutes). Robertson has played 1426 minutes, while Alexander-Arnold played 1393 minutes. Don't forget they also played in the Champions League.
It was good that we have now got an answer,” she told Het Nieuwsblad newspaper. It’s good the uncertainty is cleared up. But as an athlete I find it sad, because since 2016 all my focus has been on Tokyo 2020. As an athlete you dream of these sort of competitions. But it is a good decision and I have to accept it.
Ajax will try to reach 1/8 finals in front of their fans, after a humiliating defeat in first leg in Spain, against Getafe. 2-0 was a result of first leg, but it will not mean a lot tonight, visitors will not have an easy job, despite two goals advantage. Many times before Ajax has showed that they are able to qualifies to the next round after defeat at away matches, Traore and Babel will be in attack, Dusan Tadic may to be a key player of his duel, he is very creative player and no doubt, host will try to control this duel from first till last minute. Victory for Ajax with more than 2.5 Goals AH
For the first, he controlled a long Manuel Neuer kick before shooting from at least 30 yards, with the goalkeeper spilling his shot over the line. His second, which ended Leverkusen's hopes, was a wonderful chip over Hradecky. Leverkusen's reputation as Germany's nearly men continues. They have lost a Champions League final, three German Cup finals and finished Bundesliga runners-up five times since winning their only two major trophies - the Uefa Cup in 1988 and the German Cup in 1993.
Although normally known for their defensive strength, United have been a lot more successful in front of goal during this run and they have scored two or more goals in four of their last six league matches. It is not as if they have particularly suffered at the back for this upturn either as they have conceded an average of a goal per game during the same period.
Go ‘ed, son Gedson Fernandes of Tottenham Hotspur poses for a photo on January 14, 2020 at the Tottenham Hotspur training ground in EnfieldGetty Images Alongside the actual football runs a parallel dimension, a strange, noisy place called Transfer Land. Or at least, it’s usually noisy: so far this January, not a lot has been happening.
Spurs now move up to fifth place in the league, which as things stand could be enough for a place in the Champions League thanks to a two-season ban imposed on Manchester City, earlier this week. Villa remain in 17th just one point above the drop zone and next face Southampton, while Spurs will take on Chelsea next weekend.
Terrible results from Racing Santander this season with only 2 wins in the 21 games that they played so far in this competition. The team was in La Liga just a few years ago but currently in a very difficult position and close from being relegated to the third division of Spanish football. On the other side, Mirandés is a decent team and is currently in very good form with two consecutive victories. For that reason, we will take Mirandés to get the win as the best line to bet on this match for La Liga 2 against Racing Santander.

They sit two points behind Real with 23 from their 13 games. It’s a special game for me,” Odegaard said. But truth be told, it doesn’t matter if it’s against Madrid or any other side, all I want to do is play. I think that we’ve made a good start to the season. We’re up towards the top, which is where we want to be, and I’m happy with how I’m playing too.
Porto followed up on their win over Benfica with a 3-0 win over Academico Viseu in the Portuguese Cup but they know here the challenge will be harder. For Guimaraes, their huge win ended a three-game losing run and playing in front of their home fans they will be keen on getting a second win over Porto in 10 attempts.
Northampton secured a 2-1 win away at Salford last time out while Morecambe won by that very same scoreline at home to Port Vale, but it is the home side that head into Saturday’s clash as the clear form favourites having picked up three wins and two draws from their last six matches in all competitions.
