The hosts had plenty of chances to clear the danger in the lead up to West Brom's goal but Carlos Sanchez's clearance cannoned off Issa Diop into the path of Townsend, who had time to take a touch and pick his spot. Townsend's winner at London Stadium was the left-back's first goal for the Baggies since he joined the club in 2018After West Ham were booed off at the break, Moyes made a triple half-time substitution, bringing on Michail Antonio, Angelo Ogbonna and Mark Noble.
He is one of the best players in the world and it's a pleasure watching him play. Did you know? De Bruyne became the first player to reach double figures for both goals (10) and assists (16) in the Premier League this season. Forwards - Sadio Mane (Liverpool), Anthony Martial (Manchester United), Harry Kane (Tottenham) Mane: I rarely see this player score a scruffy goal. They are always finishes of the highest quality.
Genk U21 will host Mechelen U21 for this fixture of the league. Hosts want to win at all costs. On the other hand, the visitors also want all three points. In any case, I expect, this will be a tense match. Genk U21 is one of the teams of the relegation zone. True, Genk U21 are undefeated in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Mechelen U21 who's is are more ambitious team in this league. Mechelen have an effective attack. However, they have two consecutive losses. True, they played against strong rivals. In any case, the visitors have the motivation to break the poor series. I think, Mechelen will try to pick up the victory.
Nottingham Forest and Olympiakos owner Evangelos Marinakis has said he has fully recovered from coronavirus. Marinakis tested positive for the virus on 10 March, four days after he had been in Nottingham to watch Forest play Millwall in the Championship. He praised the Greek medical system and the “heroes” who treated him. After two weeks in full compliance, I underwent my second medical test which turned out negative,” the 52-year-old said on Forest's website.
I can't believe it is 25 years ago. One of the most significant moments in MLS history played out quietly on Monday, with a replay of the match on YouTube with social distancing limiting post and pre-game celebrations to social media. There were no reunions, no hugs and certainly no nostalgic visit back to the San Jose restaurant where they had a pre-game meal 25 years ago and several members of the team threw up not because the food was bad but because of the nerves.
The first save of the game, and it comes at the end you wouldn't have expected. Triple Chelsea chance! Kovacic lets fly with a low drive that Martin saves but fumbles, Martin gets up and saves the rebound from Giroud and the second follow-up from Pedro. Giroud was actually offside, but Martin didn't know that - great goalkeeping! 48' GOAL! Chelsea 0-1 West Ham - Cresswell scores! Well, well, well.
Indeed, the side have been struggling in recent weeks and have also had to deal with boss Gerhard Struber's departure to Barnsley. All in all, Wolfsberger have won just 2 of their last 10 matches, losing 7 times in the process and having also fell to defeat in 5 of their last 6 fixtures, confidence is very low in visiting ranks coming into the game
The Gunners were somewhat shaky defensively against Wolverhampton Wanderers but managed an impressive 2-0 win in the Saturday game. The win also came with a third straight clean sheet in the league, signaling an improvement in defence since Arteta started playing with wingbacks. While they were lucky to keep a clean sheet against Wolves, we can’t fault Arsenal’s defensive display, looking at how poor they were in the opening games after the restart.
Tottenham and England striker Harry Kane has suffered a torn hamstring, the club have announced. He limped off during the defeat at Southampton on Wednesday and on Friday manager Jose Mourinho said he was expecting "bad news". No timescale has been given for his return but he is likely to miss several weeks of action, including the FA Cup tie at Middlesbrough on Sunday. Head up. Tough times don't last, tough people do," Kane tweeted.
She battled to help Yeovil gain promotion to the Women's Super League in 2017 before spending two years at Birmingham and she is confident these experiences have taught her enough to guide Spurs to success. I think coming to Tottenham is really pushing my game forward," she said. I needed that challenge, I needed to step up myself and have people look up to me and have people learn from me.
But I think it's just about making sure that they work as hard as we did when we didn't have anything to make sure that they carry on that culture and environment to work harder. I believe that you get nowhere without working hard or trying your best. If you cut corners, I don't think you'll get there, so it's just making sure that's a development stage and for the youth now.
When you are in front and everyone says you have already won the title you have to face up to the prospect that you can only lose it from there. Ferguson weighed in, suggesting that Chelsea's trips to Blackburn, Liverpool and Everton in January and February could be key. It is when Chelsea come north that you will see," said Ferguson. They have to go to Liverpool and Everton, as we do, but our record isn't bad there.
Dele's delightful goalFor months, there had been a debate about what had happened to Dele Alli. Once one of the golden boys of the English game, he had been reduced in influence and effectiveness and lost his place in Gareth Southgate's national squad. Who knew the answer was replacing the manager he loved?One of the first things Mourinho did after replacing Maurizio Pochettino was to ask Alli whether it was him or his brother who had been playing for Tottenham in recent times.

Both Divock Origi and Michy Batshuayi are underused and either would be fantastic for us. Getting players that aren't used shipped out to free spaces up would be good but there's no guarantee they would be replaced. I'm referring to players who don't seem to have a future at the club, such as Yoshinori Muto, Ki Sung-yueng, Jack Colback, Henri Saivet and Achraf Lazaar. Norwich CityGary Gowers - Norwichcity.

Chelsea stand as favourites for now, simply because they hold fourth, but this position could well change hands plenty of times before May. A winning run could well decide this spot, but it looks as though the side who finishes fourth will limp towards it. A seven-way relegation battle? Would it be fair to suggest a Carlo Ancelotti-led Everton are no longer relegation contenders, simply because they are led (remarkably, it’s still difficult to believe) by Carlo Ancelotti? Everton have accumulated just 22 points from 19 games, and that’s enough to see them 13th in the table.

In a game of few chances and plenty of fouls, Tranmere had been the more dominant side in the first half but failed to apply sufficient pressure to the Sunderland rearguard. Jon McLaughlin was forced to make a good save from a low curling Kane Wilson free kick, but despite their early promise, that was as good as it got for Rovers.
It was a bit of a mismatch, Van Dijk towering over Kabasele, but the Watford defender dealt with the challenge admirably. If there was a header or an important interception to be made, Kabasele was there to make it. More to the point, I could not have my TOTW without a Watford defender in it, having kept a clean sheet against the best team in the country. As for Liverpool, if ever there was a game that needed the inspiration of Jordan Henderson and the professionalism of James Milner then this was it.
Many teams are recording significant losses over one or two seasons in an attempt to gain promotion to the Premier LeagueThis follows the introduction of new profit and sustainability (P&S) rules by the English Football League in 2016-17.

He has a good technique, can read a game and is used to ball possession football. His progress is very good, better than we expected. We decided in November that he is ready to train every day with the first team. After three or four weeks training with the first team, he already had his debut and this is very positive. Even Hansi Flick did not expect that he could play for the first-team already before Christmas.
Chelsea’s season has been something of a mirror image to Tottenham’s. The Blues themselves looked rejuvenated earlier in the season, with Frank Lampard and his group of inexperienced young guns doing a fantastic job to win eight of their opening 12 games.
Amiens have also been very poor at the back this season and while their attack has usually been able to dig them out, they were caught out against Rennes. They have conceded the third most goals in Ligue 1 and have just the one clean sheet in their last twelve matches in all competitions. Amiens' home form has been very impressive with them winning each of their last three matches at the Stade de la Licorne and that may be their saving grace here as they host Strasbourg.

As they sit just three points away from the coveted top six, Fleetwood are in a decent position, but there can be no denying that they've slipped a bit of late. Joey Barton's men have won just one of their last seven matches. It's not that they're getting beat on a regular basis, losing only two of their last seven, but their failure to get their heads in front on a regular basis is preventing them from breaking into the play-off places. It's now three games since the Cod Army tasted victory.

Hence my choice.
Except that this was completely unexpected because this is so far from a normal Manchester United. If you had been following the build-up to this game you will have known that all the focus was on how a struggling United team were going to cope with Tranmere’s pitch. Pretty easily, as it turns out. The *magic* of the cup The Warm-Up would be the first to admit that the scenes at Shrewsbury Town warmed our cold, cynical hearts.

They are coming from a 3-1 win over Newcastle United, in which Harry Kane’s second half brace did the magic after the Magpies had threatened to force a share of the spoils. That win served the fourth undefeated outing for Spurs – they have won three of the four and in their final home match they will be looking to make it four straight home wins.
