There is no advantage at home' Jurgen Klopp celebrates with goalscorer Roberto Firmino at Leicester's King Power StadiumSeveral of Liverpool's games could be held at a neutral venue after Deputy Chief Constable Mark Roberts said up to six matches could be moved at the request of local police forces.

The vast majority of time defensively they have been solid. At the end of the year we have the player of the season awards and there are always six nominations. My guess is four, possibly five, of the nominations will come from Liverpool's team. So that tells you how well Liverpool are doing. Liverpool trail 1-0 to Atletico Madrid after their Champions League last-16, first leg but Shearer expects the holders to overturn the deficit at home.
And we have discovered it is not the same. Time with the family is precious, the garden may look neater and there is even more time to make a complete mess of the simplest of household chores - but football will be welcomed back with open arms by millions across the nation. Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti is credited with first using the phrase "football is the most important of the less important things in the world" and its absence has enabled so many to re-engage with what makes that phrase ring gloriously true.
And, when this first Premier League game back is analysed, they will have every right to curse the failure of technology we have been led to believe we can rely on. Football is back - with all its qualities and faults. Man of the match - Dean Henderson In a game of few chances, England prospect Henderson still had to make six saves'I think the keeper was in the Holte End' - manager reactionSheffield United boss Chris Wilder: "I think the goalkeeper was in the Holte End when he caught it - or dragged it back.
Crystal Palace are 12th in the table, while Watford climbed to 17th after their 3-0 home win over Liverpool. Crystal Palace are now nine points above the relegation zone and only six points behind fifth place. Qualification for the Europa League isn't out of the question after two straight wins. They had lost three in a row before wins over Newcastle United and Brighton and Hove Albion.
We intensified the pressure more in the second half. We were more aggressive," Mourinho, whose side are now nine points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, said.

Steve Archibald was brought down in the box during the second-half and it was definitely a penalty. I had no fear that John Robertson was going to miss - he was such a calm character - and then it was just a case of hanging on. We did that pretty comfortably. Night at Stringfellows - the celebrationsWe decided to stay in London and make a weekend of it. We got on the tube with the Tartan Army and then went out to Stringfellows, which was a very posh nightclub at the time.

Two wins from their remaining two games will seal a 100% record and another one for the history books. What records have they broken? The most important stat has already been achieved of course - Premier League title #1 was achieved last month. Their coronation with seven matches still remaining was a record for the earliest Premier League title win by number of games played, but it was also the latest in the year it has ever been won - no other title has been won in June, of course.
Relive Wednesday's Championship actionThe game started frantically - Mitrovic's 21st goal of the season put him top of the Championship's goalscoring standings in his own right, but Millwall's equaliser caused consternation on the Fulham bench, and replays showed they had a case. A corner from the right was headed back towards goal by Shaun Hutchinson with Alex Pearce appearing to be offside. The ball never reached Pearce as Bradshaw clipped the ball forward, although it appeared that referee Andy Madley and his assistant felt that Fulham defender Josh Onomah got a final touch on it when both Pearce and Bodvarsson were beyond the last defender.
The move also sees Moore reunite with the Pride's English head coach, the former Birmingham City boss Marc Skinner. Moore, who had started all 14 of fifth-placed Reading's Women's Super League games this term, joined the Berkshire club after the financial collapse of her former club Notts County in 2017. She previously spent five campaigns at Birmingham City - helping them lift the 2012 FA Cup - after spells at Leeds United, Lincoln City and Doncaster Rovers Belles.
As the dust settled on Tottenham's 1-1 draw at Burnley, a rather surprising statistic came to light. The point at Turf Moor was Jose Mourinho's 27th as Spurs manager. Since he was appointed as Mauricio Pochettino's replacement in November, only Liverpool and Manchester City have accumulated more. By that assessment, the Portuguese is doing a pretty decent job. So why doesn't it feel like that?When Mourinho was condemning the first-half performance of Tottenham's £53.

two pretty much similar teams and difference between them on the table is not huge so I think both of the teams have a legit chance to win tomorrow but I decided to give advantage to the nurnberg because of their great offense on the road and I m very confident they will score a goal tomorrow and with that goal scored they should surely not lose the game, so I think it will be either 1-1 draw or nurnberg will win so I go with this handicap on them and who wants to risk could go with clear win for visitors
must win game for the Swansea,they are on nine place on the table right now with just 1 win on last five matches and If they want to contest to play off they need to win games at home versus teams like QPR,and QPR is in terrible shape, on the road they lost 9 games so far this season and also their defense is pretty weak with 28 conceded goals so I think Swansea will win this game tonight and I recommend it to anyone for sure, who wants to risk could try and go with the handicap win on Swansea city!
I didn't play until a few years after she [started]. I was normally watching her on the sides. After a while I realised I might as well give it a go," she said. My sister was a big inspiration for me, but she tore both her ACLs and then had to quit. A football career] was something she wanted so I'm trying not only for me, but also for her. At a young age, and where we were in the country, at that level, it was hard for her to get the right treatment to come back from that and risk it.
However, the goalscoring woes that have plagued Newcastle in recent years have improved.

This game is obviously big because of Mourinho being at Tottenham, something he said he’d never ever do to the Chelsea fans when he was managing them. Mourinho’s going to get maybe even worse abuse than when he was at Manchester United and that adds to the game. But that might get everything going for Chelsea and they might go and win that game.

Midfielders - Willian (Chelsea), Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd), Declan Rice (West Ham), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) Willian: He was outstanding against West Ham in midweek and the architect of Watford's downfall at Stamford Bridge.
