Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says he does not know when Tammy Abraham will return to action after the striker met a specialist about his ankle injury. Abraham, 22, travelled to Barcelona for advice after pulling up during the warm-down following Tuesday's Champions League defeat by Bayern Munich. The forward initially suffered the injury against Arsenal on 22 January. I'm hoping it's not a long-term injury but I can't tell you if he'll be ready for Tuesday or Saturday," said Lampard.
The hosts have put together a decent home record on paper, but there’s still room for improvement as they head deeper into the season. Sheffield Wednesday have certainly had a kind fixture list so far, as they’ve already met all of the bottom 10 this term. That leaves them facing some strong teams as we head towards Christmas and there’s a clear pattern emerging.

He made a brief visit to Arsenal's dressing room at the final whistle, striding around in business-like fashion backstage in the manner of a man desperate for Sunday morning to come when he can get to work with his players at London Colney. And he will already be aware of a big item on his agenda in the shape of Mesut Ozil, who was the recipient of caretaker manager Freddie Ljungberg's final acidic comments before he hands control to Arteta.
In other words, Bolton are no mugs, and should not be judged on their league position. The Trotters have shown that they're tough to beat in recent times, by avoiding defeat in seven of their last ten league games. They've also not lost by more than a single goal since November and have recently drawn against useful sides such as Sunderland and Shrewsbury.
Real Madrid's Croatian midfielder Luka Modric celebrates his goal during the Spanish Super Cup semi final between Valencia and Real Madrid on January 8, 2020, at the King Abdullah Sport City in the Saudi Arabian port city of Jeddah. Getty Images The 62,000-capacity arena was around two-thirds full for the first game of the competition, which used to be a two-legged season curtain raiser between the Spanish league champions and the Cup winners but has been given a radical facelift.
victory of Barcelona seems to me an interesting bet considering that we can practically say that the match will be played on a neutral ground as it will be not played with the presence of spectators. Barcelona's dominance over Sevilla is overwhelming since they have won in 13 of the last 15 matches, Sevilla has only been able to get a cup victory and in the league they have barely managed a draw since 2016.
He feels good and in the next few weeks he will complete all training sessions for us. He will dictate (when he returns). How he feels. He was four months out. Premier League champions and FA Cup holders City have slipped to third in the standings, 14 points behind leaders Liverpool. City did not replace departed captain Vincent Kompany over the close season and with Laporte out, Guardiola has had just two senior centre back options in John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi.
Last week West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice said no players in the Premier League wanted VAR after his side had a stoppage-time equaliser against Sheffield United ruled out by VAR after he was adjudged to have used his arm in the build-up. Rice could do nothing to avoid the ball hitting his arm after it was headed against him by John Egan.
We asked him to gaze into his crystal ball and see what would happen on transfer deadline day and one of the things he predicted was a late move for Bale from Spurs. Based on nothing 09:20 - Oh wait it actually is on?! Then came the news that none of us expected. Times journalist Matt Lawton tweeted saying that he had been told there was a breakthrough According to The Times: "Tottenham believe they have made a breakthrough in their bid to bring Gareth Bale back to the club.
Eyles, chairman of the Sky Blues Trust, an independent supporters' group which represents more than 2,700 members, will not be there. While some supporters have not missed a home game all season, others are refusing to attend until Coventry return to the city. I've been a season ticket-holder for 25 years but I don't believe in supporting the club in any move that takes us outside the city," Eyles told BBC Sport.
The UK government has described the virus as a "serious and imminent threat" to public health. The video posted by Alli showed him wearing a face mask in an airport lounge, before moving the camera to show a man of Asian appearance, and then zooming in on a bottle of antiseptic hand wash. It wasn't funny and I realised that immediately and took it down. I let myself down and the club," said the England international Alli.
It was like a goal-off. I claimed it massively and he did. If we didn't get on, he would have tore into me. It was my first goal for Portsmouth away at Goodison. It was touch and go whether it was mine. I remember when Jermain signed for Portsmouth, he wouldn't speak to David Nugent over that England goal against Andorra. Jermain's shot squirmed under the goalkeeper and was rolling slowly towards the line, when Nuge became Usain Bolt and tapped it in.
Mr Chirac told us that there is a sport winner and a moral winner. He told us that Calais was the real winner,” the coach revealed afterwards. Nantes would win the French title the following season but 2000 would remain Calais’ high point. They would embark on another cup run in 2006, reaching the quarter-finals, but then fell into prolonged financial problems that eventually led to the club’s liquidation in 2017.
Henderson sustained a hamstring injury during last week's Champions League first-leg defeat by Atletico Madrid, and Milner missed Monday's victory over West Ham with a muscle strain. Swiss forward Shaqiri has been on the sidelines since sustaining a calf issue last month. Hendo is running, Millie is running and even more.

West Ham United keeper Lukasz Fabianski will have a scan on his latest hip injury on Monday, before a decision is made about signing a replacement. Fabianski, 34, suffered a reaction when taking a goal-kick during the 1-0 Premier League loss Sheffield United. The Poland international has already had hip surgery this season which kept him out for three months. Englishman David Martin and Spaniard Roberto, both 33, are the other senior goalkeeping options at the club.
That's why it's important for the regulations to continue as they are and no-one tries to make the most of the circumstances and not pay. Henry's message to Norwich U23 player Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has sent a video to Norwich City U23s striker Shae Hutchinson, who suffers from Alport syndrome and is therefore classed as highly vulnerable due to the pandemic.

But England had a really special season. When you look at the way she left Chelsea on loan, then came back and really fought as an English striker to prove herself and break into the national team, then you can see how hard she has worked for her success. The goals she has scored have put her in the limelight along with Fran Kirby, Ji So-yun and the other Chelsea stars. She deserves it, and all the plaudits she gets.
Paderborn is bottom in the league with 16 points and are 10 points away from the safety zone and 6 points away from Dusseldorf who are on the play-out place at this moment. Both teams should really play for the win here and while it is true that at home one of the rare wins for Paderborn came while hosting Dusseldorf, it ended 2-0 in the first part of the season, but this winter break Dusseldorf appointed the former coach of Malmo FF, Uwe Rosler who had very good results with Malmo even in Europe.
The players that maybe haven't been playing as much need to come through and show why they're here, take their opportunity. Tottenham, the Champions League runners-up last season, are without a win in their last five matches in all competitions. We have been in situations probably worse than this when we have had to turn it around and we have done that," Alli said.
Maguire appears to have a little kick out at Batshuayi afterwards, right in front of the Chelsea bench who are up in arms. It's VAR reviewed and there's no further action, but that was ill-advised to say the least from Maguire. CHANCE! Chelsea should be ahead. A lovely through pass releases Mount into the United area on the left.
Erik Lamela then doubled the advantage on 15 minutes with a powerful run and finish. Jonathan Woodgate's Championship outfit did have their moments but substitute George Saville's smart strike seven minutes from time wasn't enough to stop them from falling to a first loss in seven outings. The Lilywhites, who claimed a much-needed first win in five, will now look forward to a round four clash at Southampton on Saturday January 25.
MAN OF THE MATCH - Casemiro (Real Madrid) Casemiro’s engine got Real Madrid through this match. The Brazilian midfielder came within a VAR review of opening the scoring with an excellent header having scored twice against Sevilla last weekend, but his drive and energy through the centre of the pitch was key to Real Madrid opening up pockets of space in attack in the second half.
In addition to the price freeze, United said they would expand dedicated areas for vocal fans in the Stretford End at Old Trafford to increase decibel levels. They will also trial rail seating, subject to approval from local authorities. We've worked closely with fan groups and through the Fans' Forum to help achieve this shared goal of reviving the Stretford End to its traditional status as the heartbeat of our matchday support," United said in a statement.
Benteke's confidence is shot - the other day I was talking to a mate who is a bit of a casual football fan and he said 'there are a couple of Bentekes, aren't there?' and he was obviously talking about the Benteke who was at Villa and the Benteke who was at Palace now. They might as well be different people because he just doesn't look like the same player. When he was on loan with us at the end of the 2016-17 season, Sakho was trying to earn a contract with us and get into the France squad before the 2018 World Cup and he was absolutely sensational.
Wycombe have won none of their last four, three of which they've lost, scoring just two goals and conceding eight in the process. Such number are discouraging, as is the fact that Wycombe have an average shot deficit on the road. They're averaging ten shots for and 12.09 against. The Chairboys have been bettered in terms of shots in each of their last five. Last time out away against Portsmouth, they registered just two shots on target. The goals have recently dried up for Wycombe on the road too. They've scored zero in their last 270 minutes of away-day football.
Second-placed Marseille, who lost to Nantes two weeks ago, went ahead with goals by Morgan Sanson and Dimitri Payet but conceded the draw in stoppage time when Saman Ghoddos netted the equaliser shortly after Serhou Guirassy had reduced the arrears. Marseille coach Andre Villas-Boas was shown a red card for insulting match officials after the final whistle.
Charlton Athletic chairman Matt Southall has insisted he will not step away despite majority shareholder Tahnoon Nimer "deciding on a new board" at the Championship club. Southall has been locked in a row with the Syrian businessman over finances at the Addicks, with Nimer claiming their differences are "irreconcilable". On Thursday, Southall met with Nimer and fellow director Jonathan Heller and claims the pair were removed by Nimer.
The 27-year-old, who was born in Novo Hamburgo in southern Brazil, said: "I was a young boy at 14 when I watched my club Internacional win the Club World Cup in 2006 as a fan. I'm excited to be playing the Club World Cup, it is a dream come true. It's big for Brazilians but bigger for who is playing. We are here and this is big for us, it's important to put our name in the history of the club. Alisson put in a man of the match performance against Monterrey in the semi-final, making several smart saves as the Mexican side had 16 shots in total, including eight on target.
NOT EVEN AN ANNOUNCEMENT' The Bayern fan group known as Club Nr 12 said there was "not even an announcement" in the Schalke incident. Especially in the last few weeks there have been enough racist and sexist incidents in German football stadiums where an example could have been set," it said. One thinks, for example, of the insults to Torunarigha at the Schalke match against Hertha or to Kwadwo in Muenster.

Both clubs are reported to have asked about his services in recent weeks. Paper Round’s view: It’s no surprise that Liverpool do not want Coutinho back – his recent form wouldn’t merit him a place in the team, plus, would he fit into the current system? It would be intriguing to see him join United or Spurs though, to see whether he could rediscover some of the magic that earned him such a huge move a few years ago.
I really like the odds for the over bet here and I say this because they are like this because neither have been playing high scoring games since the restart but make no doubt about it Nurnberg despite drawing 3 games in a row they are quite weak in defense only drawing 2-2 away at Regensburg lately, they were also quite attacking minded away at St. Pauli but had the bad misfortune to receive a red card and ended up losing with 1-0 in the end.
We expect Sheffield United to be in the fight for a Champions League place until the bitter end. They have shown English football that tactical discipline and team spirit can make up for a comparative lack of financial resources. We suspect many clubs will try to follow their blueprint in the coming years. Watch a case study of their economic brilliance this weekend. Back Sheffield United to win with a clean sheet.
The 27-year-old Eriksen is out of contract in June and has not been in top form this season amid British media reports that he is set for a move to Serie A side Inter Milan before the transfer window closes at the end of the month. You have to ask the agent and Inter because they know more than me. If they're confident it's because they're ready to make us an offer, which didn't happen yet," Mourinho told reporters when asked about Eriksen's potential departure to Italy.
BARCELONA, Feb 20 (Reuters) - After another turbulent week off the pitch, Barcelona will try to focus on football when they host Eibar on Saturday with the chance to keep the heat on title rivals Real Madrid. It was reported on Monday that Barcelona had contracted a third party, I3 ventures, to monitor social media coverage and that the company had made disparaging posts about players Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique as well as club greats Xavi Hernandez and Pep Guardiola, plus future presidential candidate Victor Font.
The midfielder heads the list once again because the transfer chat will just not go away.

In June 1948, 18,000 people came to New York's Ebbets Field, the home of the Brooklyn Dodgers, to watch a touring Liverpool team that included Scottish legend Billy Liddell beat Swedish club Djurgaden 3-2 in a friendly. The United States Soccer Football Association and the American Soccer League organisations, keen to spread the message of soccer, saw an opportunity to raise the sport's profile. On the world stage, Fifa wanted to get the World Cup up and running again after the cancellation of the tournament in 1942 and 1946.
Game for the FA Cup with AFC Bournemouth facing Luton Town on this match. The home team is clearly the favorite, not only are they playing at home but they are also the team from the highest division since they compete in Premier League while Luton Town is from the Championship. Despite the difference between the two teams, Luton has a very interesting team and should be able to score at least a goal here and we expect a high scoring affair here. That said, we will take the Over 3.5 goals as the best line to bet on this match.
A number of the clubs involved have also responded:Nottingham Forest said they were "seeking advice from medical professionals and the relevant governing bodies to ensure the correct measures are taken". Millwall have said "senior club representatives who came into contact with Mr Marinakis have begun a period of self isolation". Portsmouth and Peterborough are planning for their weekend matches as normal while continuing to follow "government guidelines".

In a joint statement, the EFL and PFA said the move was a "recommendation and not a directive as there are clubs who have stated no requirement to take immediate action at this time". In addition, the two bodies said that they will "form a working group of six club captains/PFA delegates from the third and fourth tiers, supported by a representative nominated by the PFA, to engage in dialogue in respect of players' wages".
