Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time. Although Sheffield-born Smith's playing career was mostly spent in the lower leagues, it was in management in which he really established a reputation. No-nonsense, direct and a motivator of players, the roll call of talent that he helped produce, sign or nurture is a remarkable one. John Aldridge and Darren Anderton were both signed by top clubs after progressing under his management, while players such as former soldier Guy Whittingham at Portsmouth and Derby's Croatian Igor Stimac showed his eye for a signing.
Istanbul BB receives Roma in EL. This team lives well and all four teams have a chance to either miss or move on to playoff. Roma are obviously a heavy play in this group and they are expected to move on, despite having undergone a really heavy start to the season. However, it looks a little better now and the shape is pointing upwards. However, I think they are some good favorites. You do not go to Istanbul and get three sticks even if you have good shape. In addition, this group has been very even. I expect a draw or home win

Eintracht Frankfurt has not been a very solid player on the road but things have been quite different when they are playing at home and so far they are the team with better results when playing at home in Bundesliga this season with 4 wins and 2 draws in the 6 games that they played so far. On this game they will face Wolfsburg, a team that failed to win all their last four games and is currently on a two game losing streak. Good value here on Eintracht Frankfurt to get the win at home and we'll take them.
Ten in a row. The ultimate in one-upmanship in the high-stakes Old Firm rivalry. The storied accomplishment of 10 successive titles has remained tantalisingly out of touch for both Celtic and Rangers. Each have faltered in their sole attempt at double-digit dominance. Now Celtic have a second go in 2020-21, having stretched their current streak to nine when last season was ended early. The 10" - both winning it and trying to stop it - has become an obsession on opposite sides of the Glasgow divide.

We were relentless in the second half and once we got the goal we made sure we didn't sit back and instead we set out to kill the game off and that's what we did. When results don't go your way you feel in debt to the fans and we needed a day like this. We wanted to win and now we want to make it count by winning the title.
It would be no surprise to see him named interim coach for the Champions League campaign, allowing a permanent replacement for Setien to be appointed during the brief 'summer' break. A turning point?

Dunkerque versus Quevilly is this match in France for the National where the hosts favorite are going to win this match today and so I pick this 1 FT. Home team so far after 17 matches have 33 points and are 1st in the league. Are coming from a win and did only 1 defeat in the last 5 matches they played. At home are pretty good team and because the guests have 17 points and did only 1 win in the last 4 matches played I think away they are going to lose this match in the end today.

Chelsea have been poor for over a month now. Were their manager not deemed a club legend then it is not too far a stretch to say that the King's Road would be awash with middle-aged men dressed like a cross between a Peaky Blinder and a club shop mannequin decrying this fraud as not understanding the ethos of a club and its history.

FRIDAY’S BIG HEADLINES Young heads for Inter Antonio Conte must still be raw about the time Jose Mourinho dug him out for having three hair transplants. How else to explain the fact he is seemingly trying to prove that the team which played so badly that Mourinho lost his job last season is good enough to win a major league.
Deportivo Alaves II will play against Real Valladolid II in the Spanish Segunda Division B group II. My tip for this game between Alaves B vs Real Valladolid B is a draw. The home team have drawn two of their last five home matches. They have been playing good lately and can get at least a point here. The away team, on the other hand, have drawn 4 of their last 5 away matches and they are one of the most draw prone teams of the league.. Based on these statistics, I bet on a draw here in this match

Eurosport Norway’s Stian Thelen says. Haaland has been a great talent and has a lot of games on Norway’s Youth National Teams. He got his debut in the summer [of 2018] for Molde and was more like a sub before he was regular in the Molde team from the 2018 season.

We played some nice football and brought in some of our greatest players. We've got a lot of respect for him but it often doesn't work out when a manager returns to a previous club.

Walter Ferretti U20 will against Real Madriz U20 in match Nicaragua Youth. My prediction this match could be the win for Walter Ferretti U20 with margin score is 2 goals.

The acquisitions of Tanguy Ndombele, Giovani Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon simply acknowledged Tottenham were in decline but did not represent a remedy. Those signings did not - and could not - immediately address the ills that were allowed to fester for those two transfer windows.
