Rangers and Celtic have both been fined by Uefa for incidents in their Europa League knockout-stage ties. The Ibrox club are punished for three offences of fan misbehaviour, while Celtic must pay £13,300 for the late kick-off of their draw in Copenhagen. Rangers are fined £8,865 for a fan entering the pitch during the last-32 home win over Braga and £4,650 for the throwing of fireworks in that game.
Barca, meanwhile, need to fill holes all over the pitch, with Jordi Alba, Sergi Roberto, Ousmane Dembele and Luis Suarez all injured and Gerard Pique facing a battle to be fit. Despite having the most expensive wage bill in world sport, coach Quique Setien was forced to fill his bench against Napoli with three reserve team players, and dressing room heavyweights are not hiding their anger at the club's hierarchy.

For many football traditionalists, you can’t beat a good old 15:00 kick-off. But what about if it's on a weekday?When England met Slovenia at 15:00 BST on a Wednesday at the 2010 World Cup, millions of fans were pleading with their bosses to skip work to watch Jermain Defoe’s shin help the Three Lions scrape into the knockout stages.

Sohar will host Al Seeb for this fixture of the league. I believe, the visitors are favorites in this game. Al Seeb is one of the best teams in this campaign. They are currently on the 1st position with 46 points. Al Seeb are in solid shape. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. I think, the visitors will try to make a positive result in this game. Also, we have Sohar who's is very average team in this league. They are currently on the 5th place with 30 points. Perhaps, the hosts will try to provide a strong resistance. However, the hosts have less potential. They have a more vulnerable defense. My pick - Al Seeb with handicap (-0.25 )

In the aftermath of that goal, the City fans sang "We won the league in Fergie Time" to mock fierce rivals United, who they had just pipped to the title. Six months after Aguero's goal against QPR, BBC News conducted some research into the notion of 'Fergie Time' and found that it did have some validity, not exclusively as an advantage to United but to all big clubs. What Ferguson understood, though, was that the reality of 'Fergie Time' mattered less than the perception of it and the impact this had on his rivals.

Sociedad have netted in all of their home matches this term so we expect them to play their part against a Barca side who have conceded in five of their last six competitive games, but Valverde's men should be too strong as they build towards El Clasico and can match the three goals which Los Blancos bagged against Txuri-urdinak on Matchday 14.
The time is now right to step away from this role and seek new challenges," Dr Chakraverty told BBC Sport. Last month, a BBC Panorama programme about Farah's former coach Alberto Salazar found Dr Chakraverty had expressed reservations about possible "side effects" from the infusion, but went ahead anyway. Football Association (FA) chairman Greg Clarke then revealed to BBC Sport that "internal conversations" were ongoing to do with Dr Chakraverty following the documentary.

If they were going to Derby without Matic and McTominay then I would not be so sure of the outcome, but those two really do steady the ship.

How did Lawro do last week?From last weekend's Premier League fixtures, Lawro and Formula E driver Sam Bird both got two correct results, with no exact scores from eight games for a total of 20 points.
BATE Borisov will be wanting to get off the mark after suffering two league defeats. Both of those came on their travels though and back on home territory, they will be a tough team to beat. 11 of their last 13 home league games have been won and they take on Rukh Brest who were promoted via the play-offs last season. They have won one and lost one so far and the tip here is for home victory.
Pacos Ferreira have won their last two home games in all competitions and Vitoria Setubal have lost their last two away games in league and cup. The hosts have won two home games in the league this season while the visitors have lost three of their five away games and are yet to win on the road, which adds weight to our prediction for a home win on Sunday.
One of the major obstacles to the start of the 2020-21 international competitions are medical protocols. Tim Meyer, who is in charge of Uefa's medical committee, is also responsible for the protocols introduced by the Bundesliga for its return this weekend. While the 28 clubs from 12 countries still in this season's Champions and Europa League should be able to adhere to the same protocols, expanding that across an entire continent for the enormous qualification series will prove a different challenge completely.
This occurs without putting your team at risk. The Europeans, especially the Italians, have been doing this for years but to see it used so effectively in a Tottenham side away at Wolves was as interesting as it gets. Jan Vertonghen was the key to this formation and the man who also got the winning goal. The Belgium international produced an outstanding all-round performance. This is not a coincidence by the way - Mourinho is working this stuff out with the players at his disposal.
St Johnstone, meanwhile, remain in eighth place, level on points with Kilmarnock and with a game in hand. Lennon praises 'brilliant' Celtic displayReaction & as it happenedCeltic better in every aspectSt Johnstone's recent woes against Celtic have been well documented.

Disproportionate game if you ask me, Sai Gon is in the top league in Vietnam and have a new coach since March with whom they started the season with a 0-0 draw at home against a tough defensive side like Song but 2nd game against Da Nang on the road where they could find spaces with ease to attack they scored 4 goals and I do believe they even had the lead 4-0 there, their Brazilian striker scoring 2 goals and he should start up-front in this game as well and alongside him playing as a fake striker is another Brazilian, so pretty decent quality for them up-front.
The guests are just a relegation candidate with two losses in a row at this moment, it is true they did not score in those two games losing with 4-0 and 2-0 but they have quality in attack and once a goal down they do try to score, they even won a game at Bukairiyah with 3-2 thanks to the fact that the hosts in that game received a red card and they are fine at scoring.
The away team have had 4 matches in their last 5 where there was only 1 goal scored in the match or less. They have actually found it hard to score in most matches but have defended well at times too. They play a good team in this match and will believe they will be unable to score enough goals to win the match they will probably look to defend this match out for as long as they can. It will be a game where there will not be many chances to score and might see under 2 goals in this

BATE will try to make their three points on side, which would be for the first time in this league. They are current Champion, but lineup was changed and there should be a lot of time used, in order to get the squad together again. However, Dinamo is one of the weakest rival in the competition, and match against them should be good chance to make it up in the table.
Gattuso described Saturday's performance as embarrassing. I'm sorry that the result made you cry," Insigne said in a video to the fan, named as Mario, which was posted on several Italian websites.

The visitors showed that despite their lowly position in the table, they are capable of carving teams open by playing between the lines, and combining that with speedy breakaways. All that was missing was the finishing touch from their leading marksman. Having earlier seen a rising drive tipped over by Dubravka, Pukki was then set through one-on-one against Krul only for Federico Fernandez to clear his goal-bound effort.
Here are the top three performers of the weekend.

Every manager who has had Pogba in his squad, with the exception of perhaps one, has never really focused him on one particular position. This has been particularly notable in Manchester thanks to the constant revolving door in the manager's office.
