I do not feel at all that the guilty verdict is a clear reflection of the incident," he said. I am sure that my family, friends, colleagues and the different technical teams who I have been working with for all these years in my professional career know I would never use my words with a racist meaning," he added.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0Sam's prediction: 1-2Match preview Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers (14:00 GMT)Spurs are still short of strikers and I think manager Jose Mourinho is trying to prove a point to his chairman, Daniel Levy, by refusing to play teenager Troy Parrott. They have been flat in attack in their defeats by RB Leipzig and Chelsea in the past week, and they will need to find a spark from somewhere.

Pro Vercelli have dominated this encounter over the past couple of games as they have not lost in their last 5 games against carrarese, winning 3 of those games. This season l, two points separates these two teams as the home team have 24 points while the away team has 22 points after 16 games. This match will be really tough as the home team have won 4 of their last six home games while the away team is undefeated in their last six away games. My pick is a win for the away team provided there is no draw in this match
LIVERPOOL'S STRENGTH Shearer, who was in Mumbai for the third edition of the Next Generation Cup -- a grassroots development initiative hosted by the Premier League and Reliance Foundation -- feels the Merseyside club are strong all over the pitch. They have been relentless in every position. Even when they haven't played particularly well in games (they have) just found a way to win," Shearer said.
If somebody had said to me in August in Munich, after we won to go through, that we'd be in the semi-final in May time, no, I'd have found that very, very hard to believe," O'Leary says, remembering the mammoth task his team faced. The first round of fixtures delivered a humbling 4-0 defeat at the Nou Camp by a Barcelona side who, although far from a vintage crop, counted the talents of Patrick Kluivert, Marc Overmars and former World Player of the Year Rivaldo among their number.
Atletico Madrid has struggled on the road this season and that's the main reason why they are currently in the 4th place with 7 points less than Barcelona. Nevertheless, at home it's very hard to beat Atletico and they only conceded 5 goals in the 9 goals that they played on their own turf. On this match they will face Levante, a team that lost 6 of their 9 games on the road and we expect a good win from Atletico Madrid on this match here, which makes their -1.5 Asian Handicap the best bet to take on this match.
Not only that, but this fixture historically favours the home side. The home side have won eight of the last 10 meetings between Aston Villa and Norwich, and with the Canaries in such poor form this season we think an Aston Villa victory offers some promising value, especially considering their 5-1 demolition of Norwich earlier in the season.

Tottenham HotspurTottenham chairman Daniel Levy says the coronavirus pandemic is the most serious issue he has had to deal with during his 20 years in charge. The club will continue foundation work such as online employability courses where they can. We are fully aware of how important foundation programmes are to the health and wellbeing of participants - where possible, we shall endeavour to maintain contact with participants to offer support and advice during this difficult time," they said.
We have to think about the derby and game by game. It's not just the Premier League. We have the FA Cup, Carabao Cup and Champions League so we just have to take this rhythm into the next set of fixtures. Liverpool will look to extend that gap back to 11 points over City when hosting Everton tonight.
Athletic Bilbao's San Mames is an uncomfortable destination for any opponent in Spain. Since the beginning of 2019 until now, Athletic Bilbao has been unbeaten in 19 out of 20 matches there (won 14, draw 5, lost 1). Athletic Bilbao has defeated famous teams like Barcelona, Sevilla or Atletico Madrid there without conceding. Moreover, so far this season Athletic Bilbao is the team with the best home defense in the league, they have conceded only 3 goals after 8 games (they kept a clean sheet in 5/8 matches).
Shock, horror - footballers are nice people and do have the best interests of the community at heart," Green joked on BBC Radio 5 Live. I think it's brilliant that they've done something that works on an individual basis and they're giving what they can give straight to the NHS. Manchester United captain Harry Maguire said it had been "heartwarming" to see the nation come together "to show their appreciation to the NHS and other critical workers".
Fayzkand failed to win against one of the weakest teams from this league Dushanbe 83 and they only draw 0:0. Fayzkand is a much better team at home than on away matches so I expect them to pick a second win in this new season. They will play against Istaravshan which lost three matches in a row and conceded 9 goals. I don't think that the hosts will struggle so hard as in the previous match to score goals. The visitors are so weak and even where they play against weaker teams they fail so hard. I pick Fayzkand to win this match
The away side perhaps gave their opponents too much respect and a first-half Pukki chance - when he got in behind the defence only for his shot to be pushed behind by Lloris - highlighted that opportunities were there against the Spurs defence. They finally became more adventurous after Pukki's goal, pushing for a winner themselves, and can count themselves unfortunate not to have come away with a result.
However, Ross County has conceded huge amounts in recent weeks, letting in 14 goals in their last five games- 2.8 on average. Moreover, they've also scored an average of 1.2 goals in their last five, failing to do so just once.
A survey by the Food Foundation in May said that more than 200,000 children in the UK have had to skip meals because their family could not access enough food during lockdown. This is not about politics, it's about humanity'In the letter, Rashford wrote: "My mum worked full-time, earning the minimum wage, to make sure we always had a good evening meal on the table, but it was not enough. The system was not built for families like mine to succeed, regardless of how hard my mum worked.
They look at evidence such as video footage to figure out how much close face-to-face contact others had with the infected individual. Other teams have celebrated just as exuberantly. As comprehensive as the hygiene protocol is, instinct tells players that once they are on the field things are as they were before the pandemic. You can't hide your emotions," said goalscorer Vedad Ibisevic after Hertha's match against Hoffenheim.

Les Athéniens are one of three teams to have beaten leaders Lens this season and they have put much of their success down to a rock solid defence. Valenciennes have conceded the least goals in Ligue 2 this season (11 in 19 matches) and have five clean sheets in their last seven games in all competitions. They are one of the lowest scoring teams in the league but that hasn't been the case recently as they have netted twelve times in their last seven matches.
Another very very interesting match for today from Dutch elite league and another match where I surely see goals, so that will be my option here and I will just try that. So, Sparta is very talented team who can beat any rival at home. This team is in this moment in problems and in last two matches, they are won just one point, 1-2 and 2-2. Guests or Vittese is better team and this is team who is in last official duel beat this rival even 7-0. Still, they are in bad form and series of two loses, 1-2 and 1-2.
Brentford fielded a second-string side against Leicester City but still pushed the Premier League side close after Kelechi Iheanacho scored what turned out to be the only goal in the final FA Cup game at Griffin Park. The Londoners, who move stadium next season, chose to prioritise Tuesday's league clash against promotion rivals Nottingham Forest while Leicester also rested players ahead of their Carabao Cup semi-final.
It was also reported he served an eight-week FA suspension at the end of his time at the Hawthorns for failing a drugs test. It took Berahino 35 appearances to register his first goal at Stoke, by which time they had been relegated from the Premier League. He would score just four more goals for the club before being released in June 2019, a month after being convicted for drink driving. The Burundi-born forward is now trying to rebuild his career with Belgian First Division A side Waragem.
Both sides pressed hard to win it but not even Austin, brought on after 70 minutes after scoring six goals in Albion's previous five games, could separate the two sides as his close-range finish was disallowed. It was a fair result. In the second-half we were the better side but they started better," Bilic continued. We wanted to finish the move straight away but that's not always possible. At half-time we reshaped the defence a bit.
today Whitby and fc united from Manchester meet in the lower ranks of men's football in England and here in this match I bet it will end in a win for the away team. The outside team is currently 4 th in the championship and has 41 pts after 22 games played. I see them as a better team and they have a higher higher level. While the home team is 12th in the championship and has 31 points after 19 games. It is two teams did not play a match together but seen the matches of the away team I see here that they are well favored and can easily win this match.

Chennaiyin will host Kerala Blasters for this fixture of the league. Both sides are not very good teams in this campaign. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. Also, both teams have a poor results in the last matches. In any case, I expect another one tough match for both sides. In my opinion, the visitors have a real chance to pick up the victory. Kerala Blasters have an effective attack in recent times. In last game Kerala Blasters played in a 2-2 draw with Jamshedpur. Also, we have Chennaiyin who's is one worst teams in this league. Hosts have low potential. I think, they have chance relatively to win. My pick - Kerala Blasters to win.
This is especially the case with Watford improving so dramatically under Nigel Pearson - the Hornets having collected 44% of their league points and scored 40% of this season's top-flight goals in the last three games alone. Of the teams not currently in or around the relegation zone, Crystal Palace and Newcastle look most at threat of being dragged in. The two have produced the lowest number of quality goalscoring chances and both are conceding more than two big opportunities per game so far.

De Bruyne was missing from the matchday squad in City's 1-0 FA Cup fifth round win over Sheffield Wednesday midweek due to a shoulder injury. Guardiola had said the Belgium international landed awkwardly on his back and shoulder during the latter stages of Sunday's League Cup final win over Villa. He's getting better, tomorrow he's going to train, he's not perfect but he feels better," Guardiola told a news conference on Friday.
