Leeds, who trail Albion only on goal difference, need only a point to return to the top. But if Fulham were to win, it would reduce the gap between the top two and the chasing pack to four points. The game's only goal in west London was a beautifully worked team move to earn Watkins his 23rd Championship goal of the season, taking him level as the division's top scorer with Fulham's Aleksandar Mitrovic.
Including two wins over Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho, Lampard now has three victories over former Chelsea managers this season as fans serenaded him with "super Frank" from all four sides of the stadium. Chelsea boosted by Gilmour's influence Billy Gilmour made his Premier League debut in place of the suspended JorginhoGilmour's first Premier League start came after a man-of-the-match performance in their FA Cup fifth-round win over Liverpool on Tuesday.
After 30 years of near misses, some dark days and even mid-table finishes, Liverpool finally ended the club's long wait to be champions of England again. Jurgen Klopp's side blew the rest away to win this season's title with seven matches remaining. Legends were born and new names added to Anfield folklore. But which of the current crop would now make it into Liverpool's all-time XI?BBC Sport has selected a long list below, so have a read through each player's credentials, then choose your formation and pick your team at the bottom of this page.
Smith's contact with the ball provoked cries of 'handball' from the home supporters, who were then incandescent when the visitors charged the length of the field to score. The away fans' delight and the home support's anger were reversed as VAR stepped in, leaving the Cherries to bemoan not only their luck but also, when the dust settled, their own profligacy.

Under Rodgers, he has improved the way he receives the ball when he is on the back foot, and also his passing - he played more passes than any other player on the pitch against Villa, and rarely gave possession away. He is more than just a destroyer now, he is actually dictating play sometimes as well, and I think there is a lot more to come from him. Ndidi played 65 passes against Villa and only eight of them were unsuccessful (red arrows on the left-hand graphic).

One of the Brit-flick releases of 1996 was When Saturday Comes - which was probably as good a barometer of the mood of the nation at that point in history as any other. In it, Sean Bean plays Jimmy - a talented footballer who may be able to make it for his beloved Sheffield United, if only he can overcome his own heavy drinking. Sean Bean, seen here at a Sheffield United fans' rally in 2007, got the chance to "play" for his club on the silver screen in 1996The number of stories about off-field drinking incidents involving the England squad before Euro 96 gives some idea as to the cultural influences that helped make that movie.

It’s hard to approach a derby without someone wheeling out the cliche of form going out the window. It’s a phrase designed for TV to convince people they’re in for a surprise. However, it’s a hopeful phrase for both QPR and Charlton, two sides who are in all kinds of trouble.
The striker was recruited while Cardiff were in the Premier League and the Bluebirds have since been relegated to the Championship. Cardiff believe the transfer was null and void, saying the Premier League had rejected certain clauses requested by Nantes in the original contract and that Sala never had a chance to review or sign the final version, meaning their record signing was not registered as a Premier League player.
Their story suggests that Elche, lying 10th in the Segunda division, could attempt to bring the Argentine coach to Spain. He is currently attempting to lead Gimnasia away from relegation though could be tempted to move if he is not supported in the transfer window. Paper Round’s view: Maradona is a legend, but he also has more than enough unsavoury episodes in his life which could leave clubs with good reason to give him a swerve when it comes to management.
And we have discovered it is not the same. Time with the family is precious, the garden may look neater and there is even more time to make a complete mess of the simplest of household chores - but football will be welcomed back with open arms by millions across the nation. Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti is credited with first using the phrase "football is the most important of the less important things in the world" and its absence has enabled so many to re-engage with what makes that phrase ring gloriously true.
That is a really difficult trip -- almost impossible. Challandes said it would have been fairer to have played the matches in a single country, as happened with the Nations League "final four" staged in Portugal last year. The organisation from UEFA is not good. I don't understand why they don't have all the matches in one country.

Carlo Ancelotti's arrival can only be good for Everton and Calvert-Lewin. He's put Burnley and Newcastle to the sword in a matter of days. I also think it was an inspired decision by Ancelotti to play Moise Kean alongside Calvert-Lewin. This could develop into quite a partnership. Did you know? Calvert-Lewin is Everton's top Premier League goalscorer this season with eight goals - it's also the most the Englishman has ever scored in a single top-flight campaign.
The Norwegian manager said after the 2-0 defeat to Arsenal: "But still it has got to be right, that’s the big point. If it’s available we’ll do something definitely. We are looking at one or two. The Sun also believes United will miss out on Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin. Video - Euro Papers: Liverpool worry as Real have 'first contact' with Mane01:04 Umtiti watches Arsenal game from stands The Mirror states that Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti was in the stands to watch Arsenal’s win over Manchester United.
A smart goal and Spurs have a mountain to climb now. SAVE! After something of a scramble in the box, Dier's clearance is blocked by Schick and looks to be going in - but Lloris claws the ball away from danger. PENALTY APPEAL! Moura breezes past his man on the left and cuts the ball back for Alli, who has a promising chance but can't divert the ball towards the far corner, where it would have been harder to save.
The away side have won only six games in Serie A in 2019, which is an awful record as the year draws to a close. The two each have major problems, with Torino winning only five of their 14 games this term. Neither side are all that consistent, which is costing them points.
I'm really hungry to learn and I try to learn from them every day and I just want to be the best that I can be. I'm trying to sponge all the information I can get. I will keep working hard until that England call comes, if it was easy everyone would be there so I'll just work hard and do all that I can.
Griffiths had gone into this tie having failed to find the net for nearly five hours, stretching back 13 games and five testing months. He made sure that 13 games did not become 14 games and he did it early. Only a dozen minutes had been played when he struck. Celtic had lost Nir Bitton to injury by then - Jozo Simunovic replaced him - and had created decent chances for Tom Rogic and Odsonne Edouard, but it was Griffiths who got the job done.

I know I'm letting them down every week I don't pick them but that's what I'm paid to do, I'm paid to get results and I'm paid to get the team to perform. The three points against Brighton means United sit fifth in the table and Stoney is confident her team can achieve their goals in their first Women's Super League season.
Vikingur has spent a couple of seasons since they got promoted a couple of years ago and last season it was the best for the club as they managed a great feat by winning the Icelandic Cup competition and qualified for the Europa League qualifying stages for the first time in their history. So of course I expect that they have brought in even some better players to the club compared to last season when they were also quite a decent club in the league as well and be even stronger than last season.
Lampard is now Blues manager. And Paul Pogba's move to Manchester United has added more than £50m to the record transfer fee that was set by Robinho's switch to Etihad Stadium. A total of 3,774 games have been played, 10,382 points earned, 10,323 goals scored and more than £10bn spent by top-flight clubs on players in pursuit of largely unrealised glory. As the 2010s draw to a close, BBC Sport casts an eye back to identify the key names and numbers and paint a statistical picture of the past 10 years of the Premier League.
Isolation is mentally difficult'Immediately after speaking to his family, he went into self-isolation. Living together with his wife, Miriam, Favalli locked himself into a room, leaving the rest of the place to her. She would cook meals and leave a plate in front of his door. Miriam had no symptoms. I didn't want to harm her. I never had a problem with my appetite, I could always eat. I couldn't taste or smell anything, but I knew that from common flu too," he said.
Bundesliga 2. Match where team Darmstadt 98 will play with team Heidenheim. Hosts did 3 wins at last 3 matches played. Their shape is well. There they scored 6 goals. Heidenheim did 2-2-0 in the last matches. There they scored 4 goals. They have a good shape also. My bet will be over 3. 5 goals in this game. Hosts are in the middle part. At home field they play very well. Guests have some chance to reach the 3rd place. They will play in offensive style here. I recommend to try this bet with me for the good odds !
Get Samir Handanovic in cotton wool ASAP. Bayern’s loan duo Key players out of contract in June 2020 Ivan Perisic (loan from Inter Milan) Philippe Coutinho (loan from Barcelona) Bayern Munich face Barcelona in the Champions League final… in July. Bayern are unable to field Coutinho as Barca have blocked extending his loan deal, while they are also coming to terms with Ivan Perisic banging in the goals again for Inter, who act after United take back Sanchez.
Atalanta are unbeaten in their last 14 home league games. Atalanta have won each of their last six home league games. Bologna have gone four league games without a win and lost 5-1 at AC Milan on Saturday. Atalanta have won 11 home league games this season, in six of them they led at both half and full time.
Last year, the honour of being named the world's best player fell to Luka Modric. But Messi is currently odds on to beat Virgil van Dijk to the 2019 prize. If he does so, Messi will edge clear of Ronaldo on six Ballon d'Or wins - an unprecedented feat and a possible fatal blow in their battle for supremacy.
The former Manchester United and LA Galaxy player is clearly sprinkling his stardust, but he's keen to get involved and says that buying players like Morgan is part of the plan to create a multicultural atmosphere. Media playback is not supported on this device Beckham speaks of his 'stubbornness' as Inter Miami make MLS debut "We have said that this is a club where we want diversity in our squad," Beckham tells me.
We will be having a game from Italy from Serie B and today Cosenza will be meeting with the away team Cittadella and we have given this game the away team Cittadella to win this game or they will give e us a draw as the prediction has being based on the last games that this two teams have played together as the away team has being doing very well in both home and away games and in this case looking at their last away game they have lost only 1 game draw 1 and with 3 and so this numbers makes us to see that this game they will not lose it
Everton have improved but still struggle against the very best teams in the Premier League. It's ten years since Everton last won a league game against Liverpool. Liverpool return to Premier League action needing just six points to win the title. They lead the table by 22 points and look to extend that advantage with a win at 12th placed Everton.
Since Duncan Ferguson's temporary involvement in first-team selection, Calvert-Lewin's game has exploded. However, under Carlo Ancelotti the 22-year-old is starting to look much more composed, especially in front of goal. His finish against Crystal Palace was a perfect example. The header from Richarlison beats everyone except the post, but Calvert-Lewin turns 180 degrees to position himself perfectly, doesn't panic and converts the rebound.

Back in their debut Premier League season Brighton were saved from the drop by their excellent home record, but the last year has seen a marked shift in this respect. In fact, Brighton have lost more home Premier League games (nine) in 2019 than any other side. They have won four of their 18 attempts in this period, so it’s safe to say that the Amex Stadium hasn’t been the happiest place to be for the home fans.
The 18-year-old is on loan to non-league Worthing, but has done so well that he has been called up to the England under-19 side. His performances have also led to scouts being sent by Spanish club Barcelona, who have been linked by the Mirror newspaper to a £4 million move for the player. Paper Round’s view: Barcelona have Marc-Andre ter Stegen, and at 27, there is no chance that he is going to be dislodged soon.
Both teams will play here for 3 points in the match between FC Neman Grodno and Energetik-BGU in the Belarusian Premier League. Newman's form at the start of this season is not that good and they are improving lately. They managed only one win so far and winning here could take them to higher place in the league table. They did draw 2 games and and their home form is quite good. Energetik-BGU somehow escaped relegation last season and they will not be that good here. The visitors They had excellent start to new campaign, they won their first match against Bate by 3-1 goals, then defeated Rukh Brest and FC Minsk. Then they suffered 2 consecutive defeats
Leicester City have won four of their last five away league games. West Ham have lost four of their last five home league matches. West Ham have conceded three goals in each of their last three home league games. Leicester have earned just one point from three games and will drop to third if Manchester City get a point at Wolves on Friday.
Nîmes would have wished for an easier opponent for this match as they have been in awful form recently and are in desperate need of three points in the run up to Christmas. They are now winless in their last eight league games with four defeats along the way. The Crocodiles have failed to score in half of those games and currently sit second bottom in the table.
