Of course, it is the main problem," said Belshina coach Eduard Gradoboyev, when asked about the lack of fans. Because football is for spectators. And when you come to a absolutely half-empty stadium, especially such a good one like here in Grodno, it is a bit uncomfortable. Even Neman Grodno's own fans urged people to keep away.
In the newspaper interview, Abidal said: "Many players weren't satisfied or working hard and there was also an internal communication problem. The relationship between the coach and the dressing room has always been good, but there are things as an ex-player that I could smell. I told the club what I thought and we reached a decision [on Valverde]. Messi then posted on social media: "Sincerely, I don't like to do these things but I think that people have to be responsible for their jobs and own their decisions.
Hearts and Thistle are challenging their respective relegations from the Premiership and Championship. United, Raith and Cove were declared winners of the Championship, League One and League Two and the petition asked for a judge to scrap promotion and relegation for the 2019-20 season. The action came after SPFL clubs failed to support the league's proposal for reconstruction, which would have kept Hearts, Thistle and League One's bottom side Stranraer up.
It's a unique experience. I don't think it will ever happen, just because of the amount of power of the other [Premier League] clubs. You can't fast-forward experience'Gerrard admits his lack of experience was a "concern" before leaving his role as Liverpool youth coach to take charge of Rangers in May 2018. He led the club to a runners-up Scottish Premiership finish in his debut campaign and they currently trail leaders Celtic by two points with a game in hand.

Here's what interim boss Freddie Ljungberg said at the break that turned things around, according to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. At half-time, Freddie told us to play with a higher tempo. It was tough but we have the quality in the squad, and if we believe in ourselves, we can go forward and win games," Aubameyang said.
Istaravshan had an awful start to the new season. They are in deep trouble- the team lost three consecutive games, and to worsen the situation they conceded as many as nine goals. But today's opponent is not that strong and they had a good record against them. I think that we will see a game of attacks. Because they have plenty of experience, and I don't think that here the defense are going to play much part. Both teams should find the net here. It seems to me that it is worth betting on over 2.5 goals in this game. Goal galore can be anticipated.
Bologna scored five goals against Torino last season, against no side did they score more in 2018-19 (W1 D1). Mihajlovic oversaw a 3-2 win here, while they’ve failed to score in just three away trips since that victory in March last year. Bologna have found the net in 89% of their matches this term, while they’ve seen both teams score in five straight away trips.
The Bergamo hospital that now bears his name is at the centre of Italy's coronavirus outbreak. The hospital has had to turn patients away while military trucks have been called in to transport coffins to crematoriums outside the city. In the province of Bergamo (population 1. March.

Will Leicester lack belief against Liverpool? Media playback is not supported on this device Manchester City 3-1 Leicester City: 'Tonight's loss is a lesson' - Rodgers With Liverpool heading to King Power Stadium on Thursday, this week was always going to define the direction of Leicester's season - and this was obviously not the start they would have wanted. Rodgers' gameplan of conceding territory and possession was understandable given the weapons his side have but, with Manchester City on their game, giving them so much of the ball was asking for trouble.
The next match I bet will be a match in the 2nd league of Italy between Spezia and Empoli. Currently the host in the 5th place and the guests on the 9th. They have difference of 4 points on the league. It will be a balanced match and controlled by both teams I will focus on option Draw.
Direct duel for the leader place and the promotion in the 3. Bundesleague for the next season. Young team of Wolfsburg is at the top, but if there is some rival that could beat them, it is second placed Lubeck. Since Weich - 08 Flansburg is a lot of points behind those two, this is maybe the most important game for both in the season.

Robertson picked up an injury during the first half of last season's incredible comeback win over Barcelona - but still produced one of the highlights when he gave Lionel Messi a little push in the head after an early challenge. What was that all about?"I sometimes play as a fan and not as a professional footballer, which is maybe my downfall at times," Robertson says. It got lively early on at Anfield - but that was nothing compared to what came next in what BBC Sport readers recently declared the greatest Champions League semi-final"Me and Fabinho were tracking Messi back and we both ended up on the ground and I just ruffled his hair a bit.
Manchester United have five straight wins over Watford. Watford have no win in 12 league matches at home. Watford have conceded two or more goals in six of the last eight matches. Manchester United are unbeaten in the last five matches. Watford have no win in the last five matches. Watford will at Vicarage Road, this Sunday, play host to Manchester United in the 18th round of matches in the Premier League.
PSG have a front three that could dismantle the best defences in Europe. It will be interesting to see how far they go in the UCL (not that league form is any kind of indication for what they can accomplish continentally). With form and the head-to-head record on their side, we don't see sweeping Nantes aside being a problem. Back PSG to win both halves.
I want to predict this game when smolevichy will play shakhtyor. The home team have scored only one goal in his last five matches they play boring football with no big chances created and I know we will see another low scoring game the away team have scored only four goals in his last five games they can score but not that many goals. Both these teams play low scoring games and I can't see how we will be able to lose this bet. I like playing safe bets because they have value in them for long term. I know we will see less than 6 goals
The club applied for permission to the local Safety Advisory Group (SAG) in December and hopes to be given the go-ahead to begin using the seats this season. Rail seats are designed to fold up, giving fans the option to stand. United have experienced long-running problems with fans refusing to sit down in parts of Old Trafford.
Fu Jen Uni is a real favorite in this home venue, and it is slightly more probable we seeing a big score with no goals from Ming Chuan Uni. 4 x 0 or 5 x 0 is my wild guess. Now talking about the 1 x 2 market and my choice, Fu Jen (Hang Yuen), should be priced at 1,06, yes that low. So betting on 1,25 is quite a good value and that's what bettors aim for. So we can have an idea last 3 matches between these two ended in 3 wins for the favorite side, one of those and away win!

ODE TO ODEGAARD Real Sociedad have been one of the most exciting attacking teams to watch this season in La Liga and that is largely down to Martin Odegaard. The Norwegian playmaker failed to make a mark at his parent club Real Madrid but after two loan spells in the Netherlands is finally shining on a bigger stage.
Emergency signing Braithwaite, controversially brought in from Leganes on Thursday after Barcelona were given permission to make a signing outside the transfer window, came on as a 72nd-minute substitute and saw Messi and Arthur both score from his saved shots late on.

I have to say that this quota is a big surprise to me. AZ Alkmaar is a very efficient team and especially in the home field. They are currently in a bit of a crisis but I appreciate their second place in the Dutch league. Lask is also a great team and they are in great form. They have 6 away victories in their last 6 games. In the last round of the Austrian Championship, they beat the leader in the standings. Lask has never played better so this is a match not for 3 goals but for a lot more.
Arsenal have nine wins in 11 FA Cup matches Arsenal have one loss in the last 11 matches. Portsmouth are unbeaten in 19 home matches. Portsmouth have scored two or more in four straight matches in the FA Cup. Arsenal are unbeaten in 18 matches against Portsmouth. Arsenal’s defeat at home to Olympiacos left a huge dent in their chances of winning silverware this season and as they travel to League One side Portsmouth for the FA Cup they know they can’t afford to bottle this.
It was four years ago, but even so this is not a great look for him. I would not take the [Tottenham] job because I love Chelsea supporters too much. Now we all know Mourinho likes to talk and after nearly a year on the sidelines, some of his comments about Tottenham from the comfort of a pundit's chair are coming home to roost.
Sunderland's lack of wins, especially at home, isn't overly encouraging, but if we look at their overall home efforts, it's easy to support a low-scoring win for The Black Cats. Despite not always going crazy in terms of goals, by scoring an average of 1.64 goals at Stadium of Light, Sunderland have simply attacked better at home than Lincoln have on the road. The Imps average just 0.77 goals for away from home. The hosts have also done a better job of out-shooting teams. Their shot supremacy at home is +3.54, while Lincoln's is -3.23. Add in the fact that neither have made a habit of being involved in high-scoring games, what with less than four goals being scored in 82% of Sunderland's home games and in 92% of Lincoln's home games, and backing Sunderland to edge it becomes a viable option.
Perugia have the distinction of going an entire league season unbeaten without ever winning the title. Their 11 wins and 19 draws from 30 games in 1978-79 saw them finish second in Serie A - their best finish - below Milan, who lost three matches. Real Sociedad would go on to win the following two La Liga titles after the end of their unbeaten run during the 1979-80 campaign.

Wednesday's draw also paired Sheffield United against 13-time FA Cup winners Arsenal. The Hillsborough faithful would hardly have arrived to watch their side take on a powerful-looking Manchester City line-up with much faith in a shock after a run of only two wins in 13 Championship games for Sheffield Wednesday.
Anxiety, vitriol & conspiracy theory'Dundee say the past week has been "fraught with anxiety, vitriol, conspiracy theory" and describe their latest statement as a "brief enlightenment" of their situation. On Tuesday, they claimed to have held "positive discussions" over league reconstruction and that they have their own and Scottish football's interests at heart. Their latest missive reiterated those sentiments and said the SPFL proposal was "not a solution for all teams" and "left little prospect" of changing the composition of the leagues.
