Grealish a throwbackWith his socks rolled down and his shorts pulled up, Grealish looks like a throwback to a different era. He plays a bit like it too. Pulling wide to the left of a three-man support line to lone striker Wesley, the Aston Villa skipper seems a peripheral figure for much of the time. But somehow, when Villa spark into life, he is central to it. United's midfield were petrified every time Grealish ran at them.
They have been great defensively this season, and more crucially, have mastered the art of slim wins. In their last 11 matches, Sheffield have scored more than once in just three, and they have six wins in the 11 matches, with five won by a difference of one goal. Sheffield have two losses and five wins in nine home league matches.
MONDAY’S BIG HEADLINES Welcome Mikel For 80 minutes or so in North London on Sunday all was well for those in red. Arsenal were putting in a performance with such intensity that home fans momentarily forgot their irrational hatred of Mesut Ozil and actually applauded him when he left the pitch. Sure it was rather irking not to see Jorginho sent off for a second yellow, and yes a second goal would have been nice, but this is Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, it’s a new era.
Chances were few and far between early on, but the hosts started to grow into the game towards the end of the first half and fashioned several opportunities to break the deadlock. Gayle had a shot blocked, before the impressive Miguel Almiron fired straight at Pope after collecting Ritchie's low pass in his stride.
They're out in front of the competition thanks to their goal difference. A 4-0 opening home win over Sangju Sangmu was followed by a thrilling 3-2 victory away to Suwon Bluewings. Brazilian forward Junior Negrao has four goals from the opening matches, receiving the player of the round award for both rounds played thus far.
They were in the final of both the DFB-Pokal and the Champions League. For the first time, the final was contested by two teams who were not champions the previous season; Arsenal and Kaiserslautern won the title in England and Germany in 1997-98, though United and Bayern had regained it by the time they went to Barcelona.

Touted moves to Real Madrid and Manchester United failed to materialise but Inter stepped up their pursuit under new manager Antonio Conte, securing the Dane for just €20 million due to his quickly evaporating contract. Meanwhile, Lo Celso becomes the first permanent signing of the Jose Mourinho era after Spurs exercised their option to buy in the Argentine’s loan deal.
Frankfurt is in a difficult period when they have not earned any score in the last 5 rounds. The rest of the Covid-19 translation did not help the Commerzbank-Arena team. At this point, the distance between Frankfurt and the red light group is only 4 points and the 16th ranked team Dusseldorf is showing great relegation efforts. If it does not improve soon, Frankfurt absolutely cannot maintain a safe position.
The home side have only one point from their last two league games but both were played away from home. Back on home soil, they are much more comfortable with four wins in six league games with eight goals scored and just two conceded with clean sheets in the last five. Their only league loss in the last ten was a 2-1 defeat at leaders Mangua FC with the winner coming in the 90th minute.
We think both teams to score is the best option, while we’re going for back to back 2-2 draws for Charlton. The Rs have seen exactly four goals in 55% of their home matches this season, while they’ve drawn three of five home clashes with sides below them. The Rs have scored at least twice in four of those five, so we’re backing a sixth 2-2 draw of the season for Charlton.
Bale remains committed to Real Madrid, says Courtois Gareth Bale is still committed to life at Real Madrid despite a failure to repair his deteriorating relationship with manager Zinedine Zidane, according to Thibaut Courtois. Bale celebrated Wales' qualification for Euro 2020 by posing for cameras behind a flag that read 'Wales, Golf, Madrid' - a reference to the player's alleged lack of interest in playing for the club and preference for the gold course over the Bernabeu.
While minnows Unionistas went out at the hands of Real Madrid and Barcelona stumbled against Ibiza, the real story of this year's competition has been second-division semi-finalists Mirandes. Hailing from Miranda de Ebro, a town of just 35,000 people in the north of Spain, Mirandes knocked out La Liga sides Celta Vigo, Sevilla and Villarreal to reach the last four. They went down 2-1 away at Real Sociedad in the semi-final first leg, but a turnaround would ensure they become the first second-division club in a Copa del Rey final since Real Madrid Castilla in 1979-80.
WEDNESDAY’S BIG STORIES Where were you, Jurgen? Jurgen smacks refresh again. His display floods with pop-ups, each guarded by a tiny ‘x’ box. As he carefully picks his way through the advert maze, a click sounds. Then another. And another. One word flashes up repeatedly in the sidebar comments: ‘Disrespectful’.
Steve Bruce's men appeared to be cruising to the last 16 of the competition thanks to first-half goals by Sean Longstaff and Joelinton, who was then almost immediately forced off with a hip injury, but two stunning strikes from the League One outfit in the dying stages turned the game on its head. A beautiful curling free-kick from Liam Kelly gave Oxford a fighting chance and deep into added time Nathan Holland's sumptuous volley sent a fascinating game into extra-time.
Ohod will host Al Batin for this fixture of the league. Both sides are one of the ambitious teams in this league. Yeah, Ohod have a great results in this campaign. Also, the hosts are in solid shape. They have five consecutive victories. However, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Also, we have Al Batin who's is also strong team in this season. The visitors are undefeated in their last 5 matches. They probably will try to make a positive result. I expect, this will be a very interesting match. I expect, this will be a very tense match. My pick - Al Batin to win.
Youthful Liverpool overpowered by Villa With Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool’s senior players in Qatar for the Club World Cup, U23s boss Neil Critchley oversaw the club’s League Cup quarter-final at Villa Park. With an average age of 19 years and 182 days, it was Liverpool’s youngest side of all time - featuring 16-year-old Harvey Elliott.
Para Hills should not have problem to beat this rival, since they made one of the better team at the league and may even fight for the playoffs for the state final at the finish. Jets are back to this level and they are trying to remain in the league for few season in the row.
It is understood the Premier League is carrying out the necessary paperwork with regards to its owners' and directors' test for the proposed takeover of the Magpies. Saudi broadcaster Arabsat has always denied that beoutQ uses its frequencies to broadcast illegally. Earlier this week, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said the issue was a matter for the Premier League, but Betts thinks intervention is needed and the government should "not sit on the bench".

A total of 142 people have applied for the England head coach's job, with more than half meeting the criteria, says Baroness Campbell, the Football Association's head of women's football. Phil Neville will leave the role next summer, so his replacement will be in charge for Euro 2021 and may also lead Team GB at the Tokyo Olympics. After that, England are targeting World Cup success in 2023. We've had an unbelievable response," said Baroness Campbell.
Game for the 12th round of the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund facing Paderborn on a game that will take place this Friday. Paderborn are currently in the last place with only 4 points after 1 win, 1 draw and 9 defeats. On the other side, Dortmund is in the 6th place and looking to bounce back after a disappointing 0 - 4 defeat against Bayern that put them with a 6 point gap to the first place. Dortmund should get the win but we don't expect a high scoring match since Paderborn shouldn't score either, which makes the Under the best bet.
He’s the ultimate 360-degree content creator. Look at this face-swap Patrice Evra did on his old team-mate Wayne Rooney and ex-manager Sir Alex Ferguson. View more on instagramRemarkably, it somehow succeeds in making Rooney look comfortable in the body of a man 44 years his senior, but the most startling thing about this image for us is just how professional it looks. Unless he’s commissioned this from a graphic designer, we can only assume the French former professional footballer has the latest Adobe suite on his computer and that he’s been spending his time in lockdown upping his skills.
Lower-league clubs are vulnerable because they are so reliant upon ticket income and many Championship clubs are vulnerable due to the severe overstretching of expenditure," he said. At Luton we have the benefit of Championship central distribution and a relatively low cost base. This situation is going to hurt us, so I dread to think how it will impact some clubs. On 3 April, the Premier League agreed to advance £125m in payments to the EFL and National League, although only £2m of it will go to the 68 National League clubs.

In this situation, the scenarios we are considering are all short term,” he said. If we can’t sort out the short-term then, unfortunately, we aren’t going to have time to sort out anything more long-term. We aren’t allowing that to enter our minds. Tebas also confirmed that La Liga had sent coronavirus test kits to all of its clubs so players can be tested.
Whilst their narrow home reverse to Los Blancos can be easily excused (especially considering their fine effort in the game overall), last weekend's beating against Granada at Los Carmenes was pretty woeful stuff from Babazorros.

AN IDENTITY CRISIS’ Elsewhere, the club have been the recipient of fierce media criticism. Simon Hughes of The Athletic details the harsh realities of the process of "professionalising Liverpool’s business operation" that has led to an era of sustained on-field success. It has been argued that very little focus has been on the practices of say, pharmaceutical conglomerates whose huge profits outstrip any Premier League business, but such companies have made no pretence to their intention.
That made it 2-2 on aggregate and meant Olympiakos were heading through on away goals. But there was one final, dramatic moment to come when, with seconds left, the ball ricocheted into Aubameyang's path six yards from goal and, with just the goalkeeper to beat, the striker missed. Somehow. The Gabon international has scored 61 times for the club since his debut in February 2018 - a tally only Liverpool's Mohamed Salah (64) can boast better among Premier League players But this time the usually deadly forward skewed his effort wide and, after a miss which left players from both teams with their heads in their hands in disbelief, Aubameyang himself was at a loss to explain what happened.
Frosinone has 4 wins in a row at home without conceding a single goal as they even defeated some decent teams like Empoli with 4-0, they won 2-0 against Chievo, also 3-0 win with Trapani and 1-0 win against Livorno and they are really great at home with a record of 5-2-0 in the league this season not to mention that they also won their first away game in the league away at Juve Stabia last round with 2-0 even, and also played at Parma pretty well in the Italian Cup competition losing narrowly.
Both of these teams have been in-form in front of goal this season. With 42 goals from 15 games, Leipzig are currently the Bundesliga's highest-scoring team. Meanwhile, Dortmund are currently the Bundesliga's third-highest scoring team. They have scored 37 goals in their 15 games this season.
