Bond's upcoming quarter-final against Mark Allen is his first in a Triple Crown event since 2004. Prior to this year's UK Championship, he had failed to make it past the first round of a tournament in his five previous attempts. Wilson took the lead with a run of 61, but Bond hit back after edging the next two frames to go 2-1 up.
Liverpool hold a 16-point advantage at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand - but the painful sub-plot for United after this victory is that it opened up a 30-point gap between the two old foes. Victory for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool opened up a 30-point gap over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United in the Premier LeagueAnd such is Liverpool's current superiority that neither margin flatters them unduly.

Usually you don't get a lot of chances against us, but now we have to admit that in the last three games, maybe four, we have conceded too many goals," Klopp said. Look, it went our way for so long because we defended outstandingly. Down in 18th place, Bournemouth have lost their last five league games to Liverpool conceding 17 goals without response, and will be wary of a backlash that could hurt their hopes of escaping the drop zone.
Espanyol carry to this game a poor run – they are winless in their last five matches. However, they have been among the best performing teams in Europa League. They have not lost in 11 Europa League games. They have nothing to lose in this game and it is expected that they will send out a weakened team. CSKA Moscow have nothing to gain from this clash but they will definitely want to finish on a high, having struggled a lot in Europe. They are unbeaten in seven away matches and we expect that effect to rub in here. With Espanyol expected to rest key men for their La Liga charge, we feel CSKA Moscow will have an upper hand here and thus we will go for a win for the Russians.

Progress in the fight against racism will only come in football when more black players become managers, England and Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling says. Thousands of people have taken part in anti-racism marches in the UK, following the death of American George Floyd on 25 May in Minneapolis. The protest is a great starting point, to make your voice be heard," he said. But just protesting alone is not going to make a change in this country.
Cadiz will host Alcorcon for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the hosts are favorites in this match. Cadiz is very ambitious team in this campaign. Cadiz are currently on the 1st position with 60 points. Of course, they want to stay in the race for the direct promotion. Also, we have Alcorcon who's is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 11th place with 44 points. Algernon is a very unpredictable team. They have highly variable results. Nevertheless, I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance in this match. My pick - Alcorcon to win.
Rudar Velenje Will host Bravo in the Prva liga of Slovenia on Friday. Rudar are currently on bottom of the table with just 10 points.

Real Esteli will want to clinch that play-off semi-final spot. To do so, they will most likely need to win this game at Jalapa with Dirangen likely to beat Real Madriz at home. They aren't in the best of form but have just one loss in their last four away league games. The home side are already in the play-off quarter finals so may rest some players ahead of those games. They suffered a heavy loss in their most recent game and with more to play for, the tip is for an away win.
I ain't afraid of no relegation. There are been many creative football tifos displayed in stands across Europe, but the one unfurled at Dutch side Den Haag on Sunday - in tribute to 1984 film classic Ghostbusters - must be up there with the most memorable. Both new manager Alan Pardew and assistant Chris Powell have had to defend themselves from some ghoulish criticism during their coaching careers, so perhaps being re-imagined as characters from the movie was apt.

Schalke were quickly in trouble as goalkeeper Markus Schubert flapped at a Mueller cross and Ivan Perisic touched the ball to Lewandowski who thumped it into the net. Rabbi Matondo rattled the Bayern bar shortly afterwards which was the last time that Schalke threatened to make a serious contest out of it.
Solanke) felt his hamstring in the warmup when he was having a shot on goal. He was then warming up again at halftime and felt that he couldn't sprint. He had a scan on Monday and that came back all clear, so he should be ok for the weekend's game. However, Simon Francis, who was sent off for two yellow cards against Wolves, is suspended for one game as is Philip Billing who picked up his fifth booking of the season.
That form from Reading makes this a tricky encounter for Leeds. The hosts come here having scored in each of their home games since Mark Bowen took charge. The Royals may have had their troubles this season, but scoring goals has rarely been one of them. They have hit 12 in eight home matches this term, scoring in 88% of their outings at this ground.
With the aforementioned factors considered, we think the Man City and both teams to score combination is priced generously for Saturday's game, while our correct score prediction forecasts a narrow 2-1 Citizens win.
On this occasion, the corner taker Pedro Neto was offside when he received a short corner back from Diego Jota. In the second half, neither side stretched their opponent, but there was a late flurry of excitement as Traore was introduced after recovering from a dislocated shoulder, before Hamza Choudhury was sent off for a second yellow card after bringing down Leander Dendoncker.
Team finishes recent season in this league, just above the relegation zone, and with one point in the favor of the host. However, Through the seasons, Slonim had better squad and the overall results than Volna, including some big victories on this field. Volna is entering this opening as favorite, but it is question if those two opponents are different in terms of quality. They would probably repeat their fight to avoid relegation, where away team even could be more successful.
It was the moment a Champions League-winning captain was pranked in the tunnel by a cheeky mascot. Then aged five, young Chelsea fan Jake Nickless offered to shake the hand of Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard before a big televised Premier League match in February 2006 - and then blew a raspberry at him. But 14 years on, and as the video has gone viral again, there appears to be no hard feelings. Gerrard, now manager of Rangers, mentioned the incident in his autobiography and said it was the only time he smiled in the tunnel before kick-off.
Wenger said he "would have jumped in front of the monitor" if VAR had been used when he was manager and admitted the system needed to be improved. You have to give us time to make it more efficient and quicker," he explained. It cannot be perfect in the first year. The main target is to get more right decisions, and that is what is achieved. We'll work hard to get the system better with the referees.
Ifeanyi will be meeting with the Always and this two teams they are a very strong teams and looking at the last games this two teams have played together they have draw in 2 games and the home team have won 3 games and the away team Akwa it has won 2 games and so this makes us to see that the home team Ifeanyi will not lose this game as when they play at home with this team they have not lose in any game and so we can say that this is a very sure bet for today
I am picking number of goals because we can see that Lyon against these weaker teams they tend to score more goals. Lyon has seven losses, only two has come from the middle ranking. The others have come from top flight, Especially at home where they have lost against Lille 4th placed, Rennes 3rd placed, Nantes 5th and PSG 1st position.
APOEL will host Omonia Nicosia for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the ambitious teams in this league. Omonia are currently on the 2nd place with 42 points. In last game Omonia is won 3-0 against weak Paralimni. Also, we have APOEL who's is also ambitious team in this campaign. They are currently on the 3rd place with 38 points. In last game APOEL lost 2-0 against Paphos. However, APOEL is really better team at home. In any case, the hosts will try to make a positive result. So, I expect, this will be a tense match. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.
Antonio Conte has already made history with Inter Milan this season, but his side continues to impress. After another big victory in Europe in midweek, they face SPAL on Sunday aiming to add to their great league form. Inter are looking to win 12 of their first 14 matches in a Serie A season for the first time in their history, while they meet a SPAL side who look hapless at the moment.
Manchester United's French midfielder Paul Pogba makes a run during the English Premier League football match against Newcastle United at Old Trafford in Manchester, on December 26, 2019.

RKC have picked up 4pts from their last three home games while Twente have picked up 1pt from their last three away games, and neither team head into Friday’s match in the best of form. Both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in three of RKC’s last five matches as well as in three of Twente’s last five matches, adding more weight to our prediction for Friday’s head to head.
Minsk 2 wants to win the league this season at this reserves level, and they have been quite attacking minded in all their games, in fact they are the only team to have scored a goal against the league leaders from Dinamo Minsk 2 a 2-2 draw they had at home in round 2 against them, and they have scored in all their games so far but defense is not really the best and I say this because two rounds ago they played 11 vs 10 men since 5th minute away at Rukh Brest 2 and conceded 3 goals losing the encounter with 3-1 in the end.
He hasn't played well for over six months - save for a cameo role in the 4-2 comeback win over Olympiacos in the Champions League in November - and there is little indication he will suddenly start performing now he's touched down in Serie A. On the other hand, he's rarely played in a 3-5-2 (or a 3-4-1-2) at Spurs, and Conte's preferred formation would appear to suit him.
As matters stand, we have not asked the Court to grant an interim interdict which would prevent next [Premiership] season commencing on 1 August," the statement said. However, we have to reserve our right to do so in the event that becomes necessary. We would emphasise instead that we have no wish to disrupt Scottish football but rather our aim is to have the proceedings litigated to a conclusion as quickly as possible.
John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi have also missed games and lacked form, leaving Fernandinho as clear first choice in the position. Guardiola said Laporte, who has been out since August with a knee injury, is now nearing a return. Yesterday was the first time he trained with the team for 10 or 15 minutes," Guardiola said. He's getting better, he feels good. I think in the next week he'll complete all the training sessions with us.
Meanwhile, as well as they've done to continually avoid relegation, particularly after the tragedy of 2016, this will be the season Chapecoense find themselves relegated.

Blackburn Rovers will host Fulham for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors will try to make a positive result on the opposite stadium. Fulham are more ambitious team in this campaign. They are currently on the 3rd place with 52 points. They probably want to stay in the race for higher range. Also, we have Blackburn who's is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 10th place with 44 points. Yeah, the hosts are undefeated in their last 4 matches. However, this will not be an easy task. In any case, this will be a very tense match. My pick - Fulham to win.
We ate at the little Il Fornaio that's right down the street, downtown San Jose, and I remember they thought that the food was bad because four of our guys threw up after lunch, and it had nothing to do with the food," recalled Wynalda, who also played on three U. S. World Cup teams. It was just nervousness.
With Odriozola) we now have an additional alternative that gives us more flexibility," said Flick. It was all about having options. Through this transfer we have these options. Flick also did not rule out making another move during the transfer window, having long demanded a winger. We know that as long as the (transfer) window is open a lot can happen.
FRIDAY’S BIG HEADLINES Tottenham hit by Kaneocalypse Of all the things which could go wrong for Tottenham and Jose Mourinho - aside from, say, forcing a team doctor out of the club for simply doing her job - losing Harry Kane for a prolonged period of time would be up near the top of the list. And, lo, the Kaneocalypse has arrived with the news that Tottenham’s captain requires surgery on the hamstring injury he sustained in the recent defeat at Southampton and will be ruled out until April.
Lyon faces Nice in this match for Ligue 1. Both teams are not doing as well as they were doing last year. Nice has a good team but lost some of the good players and they lost their identity. Lyon still has a super team but had a really bad start losing and drawing a lot of games they were controlling. This time I believe the home team will win. They have a stronger squad, they are now playing very well and the momentum they built is incredible. Playing at home I do not see them not winning this game. M
Four years, four seasons. Buying one of the best goalkeepers in the world, buying one of the best centre-backs in the world and so on and so on and so on. I'm focused on my three-year contract. I believe that in my three-year contract we can win trophies. If we don't, but the club does it in the new era if I stay here only for three years, I will be happy with that. Tottenham spent more than £100m last summer, including on record buy Tanguy Ndombele, who has made just two substitute appearances since the restart, but also endured a string of injuries to key players earlier this season.
It's perhaps not a huge surprise then that their form prior to today had seen them win just two of their previous 13 matches and you could understand why BBC Radio Manchester reporter Phil Kinsella had a feeling Saturday's home game against Newport might prove to be a drab affair. View more on twitterFortunately for Kinsella and the majority of the 2,912 fans in the ground it proved to be anything but as the hosts put their off-field issues to one side and ran out 5-0 victors.
Instead, Juventus were awarded the penalty after Miralem Pjanic's shot hit German Pezzella's raised hand and, after waiting for the referee to confirm his decision with the pitchside monitor, Ronaldo scored with a low shot to his left. The Portuguese became the second Juventus player to score in nine league games in a row after David Trezeguet.
We had to navigate our way out of Sofia by trying to decipher road signs written only in Cyrillic. Does John know "King Freddie" Mercury? He may answer that question in a future article. The journey involved traversing narrow winding mountain roads and avoiding horses and carts as well as herds of goats. And I remember being held up for some time at the border, along with a couple of bus loads of the Tartan Army, while a guard there asked if I knew either John Major or Freddie Mercury.
Roma is not a bad side in fact in 5 away games played by them in the league this season they have 4 wins and just one defeat, problem being they played 3 games in the league with AC Milan in the past two seasons twice at home and lost all 3 two of them even by 3 goals difference losing last season with 4-1 here and also 2-1 at home, this while at the start of this new season AC Milan paid a visit to AS Roma W and won there with no less than 3-0 in the end.
