Liverpool’s Xherdan Shaqiri is wanted by Roma on loan until the end of the season but he is unlikely to leave.
Here are three talking points from the weekend's La Liga action. A Hazard warning for Man City Real Madrid might have been held to a shock 2-2 draw by lowly Celta Vigo at the Bernabeu on Sunday, but many Real fans were left salivating at Eden Hazard’s individual display. The Belgian, starting his first game since November due to an ankle problem, showed the Spanish capital exactly what they had been missing in his absence: guile, creativity and a direct threat at goal.
Utrecht and Den Haag will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eredivisie. Utrecht this season have the following results: 9W, 3D and 7L. Meanwhile Den Haag have 4W, 4D and 11L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Neil Lennon's side preserved the gap cleaved open following Rangers' weekend defeat with three goals in 20 minutes. Olivier Ntcham headed the visitors ahead, James Forrest doubled the lead with an angled strike, and Leigh Griffiths volleyed in his third in four games to complete the scoring after just 26 minutes. Rangers' win over Ross County means Celtic's advantage at the summit remains at five, having played a game more.

That's the same with all big teams. How big could next summer be and will the draw spark excitement?The draw is always a decisive moment for everybody, knowing the dates and knowing what the route looks like. The country feels like they have been more engaged with the team over the last two years and that's one of the biggest highlights for me when I travel around, that people do care. I knew they did, but I think everybody was wounded by disappointment.
A City statement said the family member had undergone tests at hospital, including for the coronavirus, and that the player would continue to self isolate until the results were known.

We have asked Freddie Ljungberg to take responsibility for the first team as interim head coach. We have full confidence in Freddie to take us forward. Wolves manager Nuno is the favourite to succeed Emery according to the bookies, while Manchester City assistant head coach Mikel Arteta and ex-Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino are also mentioned.
Angers have only scored more than one goal in one of their last twelve league matches so we don't think they'll blast past Nice but with their strong defensive record we're backing them to win 1-0. Four of Nice's last seven defeats have all been by a one goal margin so we're expecting the match to finish by this scoreline.
But the chances were few for Liverpool in a first half that saw Watford defend in numbers and remain compact. Watford had chances on the break but didn't take them - Will Hughes dragging a shot wide and Etienne Capoue having an effort blocked in the box. In the end it was Liverpool who capitalised with a break of their own - Firmino, Mane and Salah combining for the opener. Sarr missed a golden opportunity to equalise five minutes later, and Alisson was kept on his toes as he made two smart close-range saves early in the second half.

We totally underestimated them. I cherish it even though we lost'As Feyenoord celebrated with their travelling fans, Celtic's players cleared the pitch and waited for their manager in the dressing room, deep in thought. There was disbelief about what had happened, a total quietness in there," Hay continues. It was like when you wake up from a dream and you think 'did that happen?'"Had Stein been speaking honestly immediately after the match, he probably would have told his players that they had missed out on a gilt-edged chance to seal their names in European history once more, and that they only had themselves to blame.
The boys looked mentally tired towards the end, we didn't find that creativity. We can't feel sorry for ourselves. When you are at Man Utd you are privileged because you are playing for the best club in the world. Sometimes you go through periods like that and it is a test I am sure they are going to come through. We have got our targets'United are without England forward Marcus Rashford with a stress facture of the back, leading to speculation that the club may look to recruit before the transfer deadline on 31 January.

The action was relentless during the first stanza, with both sides putting on a show of the highest quality, albeit with a lack of end product, Caitlin Foord being another such culprit, with the Australian's drive rippling the side netting minutes before the break. The pace of the game showed no sign of slowing up after the interval, with Reiten the first to try her luck, before Arsenal began to turn the screw around the hour mark.

Joe Lolley helped lift Nottingham Forest to within five points of the automatic promotion places after scoring twice as they came from behind to beat Luton Town. A fine low finish from Hatters forward Harry Cornick, who met Dan Potts' cross, gave the Championship's bottom side a deserved lead after they had piled early pressure on the high-flying hosts. Simon Sluga's failure to deal with a tame shot from Lolley, which squeezed in at the near post, allowed Forest back into the game, although the Croatian goalkeeper did atone when he saved well from a Joe Worrall header to ensure it remained all square at the break.

Gokulam will host East Bengal for this fixture of the league. Gokulam is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 7th place with 18 points. However, the hosts have highly variable results. They are not convincing team. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. Also, we have East Bengal who's is also very average team. They are currently on the 4th place with 19 points. True, East Bengal are in better shape. They are undefeated in their last 4 matches. I think, the visitors have the potential to fight for all three points.
Luton have been the side to watch for entertainment this season. The hosts have seen both teams score in 80% of their home games, including each of the last four. On top of that, the Hatters have seen over 2.5 goals in 90% of their home outings this season.
Orsolini, who had wasted a number of corners for midtable Bologna with his poor delivery throughout the match, fired his shot straight into the roof of the net from near the byline to extend Fiorentina's winless run to eight league matches. Iachini, wearing his trademark baseball cap, replaced Vincenzo Montella who was fired following a 4-1 home defeat by AS Roma in December.
Roma and Inter vs. Getafe. So in theory you’ll still be able to watch, say, Manchester United’s trip to LASK, then Olympiakos vs. Wolves. But honestly, we wouldn’t be surprised if there are some last minute postponements. Watch the space of your choice. Coming to you tomorrow from a fort made of toilet paper, Tom Adams.
The 41-year-old is quick to point out that visiting fans left the 2016 World Cup in Russia with changed views about the host country and hopes that spending time in the Gulf state will help challenge some negative views about the Arab world.

Suwon Bluewings welcome Incheon United in the third round of K-1 League. Both teams are out of form, however Suwon are worse. They lost both opening matches in the league and sit on the last place at the table. Suwon lost 1:0 to Jeonbuk and lost 3:2 to Ulsan Hyundai. The Bluewings had two-goal advantage thanks to Ko Seung Beom and Sulejman Krpic goals, but then collapsed, conceded three easy goals and lost the match. The atmosphere in the squad is poor, while the players confidence is low. That is why I am expecting Incheon to win three points here.
