The USL is divided into an Eastern and Western Conference, with Memphis part of the former and Phoenix in the latter. Joining Arizona is Sacramento Republic, whose manager is Wolverhampton-raised Mark Briggs. The Californian club will join MLS in 2022, as its 29th team. We are probably the biggest club in the USL - we had around 12,000 for first game of the season against FC Tulsa," Briggs, 38, says.
How those concerns were justified. The club had started to creak under the folly of owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett. Liverpool's best days under the manager who brought them the Champions League in 2005 and the FA Cup the following year were gone. The season that should have made up for a near miss was miserable. Liverpool finished seventh. Benitez was sacked. Roy Hodgson and the returning Dalglish were in a holding pattern without title aspirations, although the latter won the League Cup in 2012, until the next near miss that came from nowhere.
West Brom are closing in on a return to the Premier League. They lost in the play-off semi-finals last season but look on their way to winning automatic promotion this term. They have returned to form with three straight wins and have the best away record in the Championship. Blackburn still have a faint chance of making the play-offs but this won't be at all easy for them. Go for an away win.
Well I do not have that much confidence as in my Slavia over 3 goals bet as if I did I would probably be betting on BATE -2 AH in this one at odds above 3.00, and I say this because the hosts have 3 wins in a row in the league defending hard every time with just 1-0 in the end. But BATE is dominating side despite drawing just 0-0 at home a few days ago with Zhodino, they had 16 shots mostly on target and missed a penalty kick as well, while in their last away game at Minsk they were more efficient scoring 3 goals against a very defensive minded Minsk side, and without troubling themselves more they could have scored 2 or 3 more goals.
I missed out on my over 2.5 goals bet on Brest last round as they visited Lille who recorded their 3rd win in a row with 1-0, but Brest did not pose really too much of a threat all game as they were mostly defensive while Lille only really pushed hard for the first goal otherwise looked satisfied with their lead. In the last home game for Brest they scored no less than 5 times as they demolished Strasbourg with 5-0 at home.
Talks on the potential £340m takeover of Newcastle United by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund are "advanced". Negotiations between the Arab state's Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Newcastle owner Mike Ashley have been in progress for several months. The chances of an agreement are now "high" according to one source familiar with the discussions. But they also warned that the talks were "complicated" and a deal could still collapse.
The runaway Premier League leaders' unbeaten record this season came to a surprise end at Vicarage Road, with Ismaila Sarr scoring twice and setting up Troy Deeney for a third, ending their hopes of matching Arsenal's 'Invincible' 2003-04 season. They remain the overwhelming favourites to end the club's 30-year wait for the title and Klopp is eager to see his players dust themselves off and focus on the rest of the season.
The 19th round of Series A is formed in such a way that the teams from the top 6 play among themselves. At such a moment, the middle peasants like Parma have a chance to get closer to the leaders. “Crusaders” on Sunday meet with “Lecce” and can come close to the zone of European competitions.
With the sight of another smaller club, Bournemouth, teetering on the brink of relegation, and one of the giants, Leeds United, preparing to return to the top flight, Burnley's battle against the odds is clear. With Dyche at the helm, they do seem to have a chance of beating them. Would someone new be able to lead the fight as successfully?The answer, it seems, revolves around money. Chairman Mike Garlick has never overspent and is rumoured to be looking for a buyer for the club, but Dyche continues to push for more.

I want it to be a positive issue. It is something we have done pretty well. We have had fluidity in our midfield. We can use them all collectively," Lampard added. You have to give Jorginho the freedom to leave his position. He has a perception for the press. Former Chelsea midfielder Lampard, who ended his Premier League career with a season at City, said he was looking forward to facing City who are one place below his side.

The Ballon d’Or had to go to an individual who excelled for both club and country – Van Dijk did that, Messi only partly. The award had to go an individual who showcased fair play – Van Dijk did that, Messi cracked. Even after considering the third criteria, an overall career judgement, Van Dijk should have seen off the Barcelona forward.
There were easy victories against Ulster United in Toronto (5-0), New Jersey Stars (3-0) and Philadelphia All-Stars (6-4). The 2-2 draw with the New York All Stars and a 2-1 defeat against New England All-Stars at Fall River were attributable to acclimatisation and travel fatigue. Belfast Celtic's visit to New York was given extensive press coverage. When a photograph showing Scott carrying off an Irish tricolour flag at the front of a pre-match parade found its way on to the pages of newspapers back in Belfast, there was quite a public outcry.
The 21-year-old is in his third full season and close to the French national team, so now is the time for him to step up. WHO IS INTERESTED? Juventus were already interested in him before the Champions League meeting in Turin, but they are even more fixed on the idea now. Real Madrid and PSG are also interested.
Everton with top coach Ancelotti got their first good result away from home at Newcastle where the hosts did not even close to City recently drawing that game 2-2 in the end, but Everton played a great game as they do have players much better than their current league position shows paying big bucks to buy quality players over past seasons this one included just results have not been there but now they have one of the top coaches in the world on the bench and I do not see them resumed to only defend here.
This should be an entertaining game and a few goals should be scored even if most of Newcastle's do still come from defenders. Newcastle's form has improved of late (it needed to) and if their strikers can start scoring, a top ten finish is possible. Both these sides could do with signing some defenders in the transfer window. They have conceded 38 goals between them in the Premier League this season. Nine of Villa's league games this season have had over 2.5 goals scored in them, another is likely here. Go for that stat to come up in this match.
They met in a friendly game before this season restarted and to everyone's surprise it was Gorica who won the game, a game which had 5 goals scored total as they won it with 3-2 in the end, and they are coming after a 3-0 win away from home at Zapresic as they are very attacking minded oriented, they are safe from relegation in this ending of the season and looking to improve for the following season, and should play without fear here with the league leaders.

Bev Priestman Phil Neville's assistant manager, Bev Priestman, was installed as the early favourite by the bookmakersShould the FA decide to look to promote somebody from within the existing Lionesses setup, Phil Neville's number two Bev Priestman would seem best placed.

Can we start again? Chelsea boss Frank James Lampard has the knives out, according to the Sun newspaper, which predicts that Lampard may choose to bin up to EIGHT (8) players in the summer as he pursues a summer rebuild. Goalkeeper Kepa and midfielder Jorginho are marked for the exit, along with Ross Barkley, Willian, Pedro and defender Kurt Zouma, as Chelsea prepare to overhaul the squad.
Quagliarella pulled one back in style in the 26th minute as the ball was chipped forward to the edge of the area where the 37-year-old met it with a volley on the turn which flew into the bottom corner. Sampdoria thought they had levelled 10 minutes after halftime with another artistic effort when Gaston Ramirez turned the ball in with an overhead kick but, after a long VAR review, the goal was controversially chalked off for handball by Manolo Gabbiadini at the start of the move.
That’s a problem for Middlesbrough’s survival hopes. It’s also an issue against a strong West Brom side who are great at the Hawthorns.

Capital Derby! Lokomotiv will take Dynamo. Both teams are based in the capital of Croatia - in Zagreb. The home team have a very good season and will certainly fight for second place. But in the last round, the team misfired in the match against “Osijek” and lost. Thus putting forward in third place, “Hajduk” and bringing himself all the same “Osijek” at a distance of one point. There are only nine rounds left until the end of the season, so the team should not lose points right now. The home team has much more motivation than the guests. Still, the “Dynamo” is a huge advantage on points and at some points, the players will not squeeze out the maximum. Another thing is whether they can win the Lokomotiv match if they managed to win only two times in 37 full-time games. We do not think that the match will be easy for both clubs. Most likely, Dynamo will sometimes make mistakes in defense, because the championship continued after a long pause and not everyone is in optimal shape.
