In terms of the resumption of the championship - for now we don't talk about it. Serie A and the Italian football federation (FIGC) both want to complete the season, although the Italian government says it has not yet decided whether it will give its permission to do so. Across Europe, the French league has been abandoned with Paris St-Germain awarded the title. In Germany, the Bundesliga is set to become the first major football league in Europe to return to competition.
Even if we get back to playing with spectators, the damage this situation has already caused would be 150m euros. Two plans to get season completedUefa has urged individual leagues not to follow Belgium's example by scrapping competitions - and warned they risk not being allowed into next season's European competition if they do. A working group - which also includes representatives from the European Clubs' Association and the European Leagues - expects to have a proposal to put forward by the middle of May.
I think we have operated in a smart and functional manner to improve the squad and the goal has been achieved with Moses, Young and Eriksen," Conte told reporters after Wednesday's 2-1 Coppa Italia win against Fiorentina. Denmark midfielder Eriksen, who had been the main target, was finally signed from Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday and was rushed into the side for his debut as a substitute on Wednesday.

We are disappointed that the global pandemic has impacted our plans together but completely understand that family comes first during these difficult times.
I am here to try to do this. Everton currently sit 15th in the Premier League table, but Ancelotti believes he has a team capable of climbing the table. Our goal is to be competitive in the Premier League, to be towards the top of the table, to be competitive in Europe,” he added. It’s not going to happen straight away, but we have to work for this.

Only wins will do for Norwich as they try to save their Premier League skins. They have to go on the attack and face an Everton side that are nowhere near as good on the road as they are at home. 31 away league goals conceded already this season, so go for both teams to score in this game.
That was a welcome win for them as they had lost their last three games, two to in-form Shakhtyor. Home form has seen them earn four points from four games, something they definitely need to improve on. The last three have seen them win two and lose one, so they are gradually recovering from their slow start to the season.
That being said, we’re not expecting the hosts to have it all their own way. Despite strengthening their back line in the summer, Man Utd have conceded in all but two of their home league games this season and have shipped an average of one goal per game at Old Trafford.

The Foxes have hit 22 goals across their last seven games, while Watford are letting in over 2 goals per game on average.

Estadio Benito Villamarin in Sevilla. Betis Sevilla welcomes the high riding FC Barcelona. The two last meeting between both teams FC Barcelona won both games at home 5-2 and in the second one in Sevilla 4-1, I believe that they will do everything possible to gain victory again here.
Away side did lost their five previous games in the season, and they are now the worst performing teams in the league. Squad cannot make even close of the good form from the first part of the season, and they could be in tough challenge against Lechia, which is going up on the competition, with the good performances.
Prior to that they had won four on the bounce to propel themselves into the position to make an unlikely late dart for a European spot. Tonight was a better gauge for where Roy Hodgson's side are at - and they were largely found wanting. Their organisation is well-established - prior to the defeat at Liverpool they had won four on the bounce without conceding - but with the onus on them to find a way to unlock their opponents they had little to offer.

Porto will host Sporting Braga for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts are favorites in this game. Porto are more ambitious team in this league. Of course, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Porto are in solid shape. They have three consecutive victories. Also, we have Braga who's is very average team in this season. Braga have big fluctuations. True, they have better results in the last matches. They have two consecutive victories. No doubt, the visitors have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, they will try to provide a strong resistance. My pick - draw.

The Premier League can't celebrate its financial domination and then expect John McDonnell to take over as chairman at Liverpool, for example. Tottenham Hotspur chief-executive Daniel Levy (L) looks on next to Liverpool owner John Henry following the UEFA Champions League Final between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano on June 01, 2019Getty Images To some extent, the fans who demand huge transfer outlays can't really be disgusted when clubs decide to make use of government schemes to ease their financial burden (of course, there are plenty of fans who are opposed to one and not the other).

The fact we lost our first game, there's a few difficulties we've had. You don't want to lose games or predict losing games but the way we are. Invincible'. Teams and individuals need these tests, it comes with football so it's a test for all of us. Lampard also said that Saturday's 3-1 league defeat by Everton would not change his transfer window plans after the club had its transfer ban halved, paving the way to recruit new players in January.

Byram, without a competitive goal since December 2015 when he scored for Leeds against Nottingham Forest, also had a chance for the visitors but his weak shot was easily saved by McCarthy. But Norwich grabbed a lifeline in the 65th minute when Tettey's fine through ball found Pukki and the Finnish striker scored for the second successive game after he had gone eight club matches without a goal.
This is the first time in my life that I will put my money on some game in Burundi. Must say that at the beginning. Visitors are fighting for title. They are in hard situation as they are 4 points behind leader and have game in hand. Everything to be even worse for them, they had only draw in last game at home. So this game is must win game for them. They won at home in the first half o of the season 2-0 against Rukinzo. Home team is without any ambitions. They are almost safe from relegation but also far from top of table. Away win!
This is a sterile side and the question is whether Moyes can summon up the inspiration from somewhere to keep the Hammers up. West Ham will feel real injustice about the first Spurs goal, which deflected off Davinson Sanchez on to Soucek, which under the current video assistant referee rules should surely have been disallowed. However, it is clear Moyes and his players now have real problems. Who is on VAR? Not very good.

After the break, the youngsters more than held their own but Wesley added a late fifth as Villa cruised through to the League Cup semi-finals for the first time since 2012/13. Liverpool named five debutants in a side with an average age of 19 years and 182 days, but Villa also rang the changes, with one of those inclusions, Conor Hourihane, firing a free-kick into the middle in the 14th minute, which evaded everyone and squirmed into the net under the despairing dive of Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.
The league is one of Europe's least glamorous, and rarely gets a team into the latter stages of UEFA's continental competitions. But its moment in the spotlight is filling the void for foreign fans starved of football at home, and raking in a string of foreign broadcast deals. Nevertheless, many local supporters, more worried about the pandemic than their president, have stopped going to matches.
