Crystal Palace winger Andros Townsend says he once lost £46,000 in one night but being charged by the FA for betting "probably saved me as a human being". Townsend, 28, says a mixture of an addictive personality and boredom while on numerous loan spells away from Tottenham contributed to his gambling. In 2013, he was fined £18,000 and given a ban by the Football Association for breaching betting regulations.
Messi has been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou at the end of the season after he caused a stir by criticising the club's sporting director Eric Abidal over who was responsible for the sacking of Ernesto Valverde last month. British and Spanish media reported that Messi has a clause in his contract that allows him to walk away for free in the close season even though his contract runs till 2021, sparking speculation of his departure from the club after 16 seasons.

In 11 home league matches they have one clean sheet and have conceded two goals or more in four of the last seven.
I think footballers as a breed have been very harshly treated on this. I know a lot of footballers and managers and Ok some of them are their own worst enemy, some of them aren’t very nice people and some of them are very greedy, but most of them in my experience are not," he told Reuters. Campbell said that comments last week by Britain's health minister Matt Hancock, urging the players to take a pay cut and "play their part", had generated much of the heat.

Partick Thistle, for example, are two points adrift at the bottom of the Championship with a game in hand over Queen of the South. Partick are understandably unhappy about this, but the SPFL reckon this means they can get prize money out to struggling clubs sooner. And perhaps the result of the vote, due Friday, will serve as an indicator about how clubs are feeling about the prospect of cancellation in general.

FC Kopenhagen will host Aalborg for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Kopenhagen are more ambitious team in this league. I think, the hosts want to get all three points. Also, it should be said, Copenhagen is the best team at home field. In any case, the hosts will try to dominate from the start match. They tend to score a goal. Also, Aalborg is very average team in this season. True, they have two consecutive victories. They probably will try to provide a strong resistance. In any case, this will not be an easy task on the opposite stadium. I think, the hosts will win.
Given what we've seen from this pair in recent weeks, it's easy to envisage a game full of goals unfolding at Loftus Road. Therefore, punters probably won't go far wrong with 'Over 2.5 Goals' and the like, though the best approach in terms of price appears to be 'Swansea to Score Over 1.5 Goals'. The visitors haven't scaled the heights in terms of goals scored of late, but they remain very capable scorers, especially on the road, where they've not drawn a blank since September. Add in that they're the fourth best team in the Championship in terms of touches in the opposition box, combine that with the fact that QPR have conceded two or more in ten out of 14 at home this term, and visiting goals are become hard to oppose.
Mark Noble has now been directly involved in 79 goals for West Ham in the Premier League (46 goals and 33 assists), the most of any player for the club in the competition's history, overtaking Paolo Di Canio. Ricardo Pereira has had a direct hand in 13 goals in the Premier League since the start of last season (five goals and eight assists) - the only two defenders with more in this period are Liverpool pair Trent Alexander-Arnold (24) and Andrew Robertson (18).
That was against the run of play! 67’ MESSI. That would have been a classic of the genre from Messi! Alba played the ball back to the Argentine and he attempted to chip a finish over Robles, but it drifts just wide of the far post! 72’ GOAL! Real Betis 2-3 Barcelona: Barcelona have turned this game on its head! What a header that was from Lenglet! The French defender got on the end of a freekick delivery into the box and loops a header over Robles who slipped as he attempted to make the save! 77’ SENT OFF! Fekir has been shown a second yellow card! Real Betis will finish this match with 10 men! The home team players are now surrounding the referee as they believe that was harsh! Fekir was shown a first yellow card for a foul on Lenglet and then a second for arguing! 79’ SENT OFF! Real drama at the Benito Villamarin as Lenglet is shown a second yellow card for a foul on Joaquin! Now Barcelona are down to 10 men and this match might not be over after all! KEY STATS Lionel Messi is now the second player in Europe’s top five leagues to have notched double figures in goals and assists (after Jadon Sancho).
Ahead of the game, fourth placed Monchengladbach have registered 46 points, two lesser than Dortmund who occupy third place. Monchengladbach will head to this clash unbeaten in their last five matches but will be more concerned with their defending, having managed no clean sheet in their last six matches.
78% of Peterborough’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals as have 57% of Bolton’s away games, with Peterborough scoring 24 goals at home this season and Bolton netting just 4 goals on the road so far. Peterborough have kept clean sheets in 56% of their home games and Bolton have failed to score in 57% of their away games, which is why we have backed a 3-0 home win on Saturday.

Both sides were knocked out of the Champions League at the group stage. Shakhtar lost two of their home group games so Benfica have no reason to be scared of going to the Ukraine. The Portuguese league leaders have struggled against the sides second and third in the table but should be able to either win or draw this match and finish the tie off in the home second leg.
Oxford saw off Sunderland on post match penalties in the previous round while City beat Southampton to book their place here.

We think this one will be a lot tighter than most would anticipate and we're confident in predicting that the 3.5 goal line won't be beaten in this one. Man City don't need a big result to secure qualification and Shakhtar will be looking to keep things tight, and whilst Man City should have too much quality for their opponents, we can't see this being a high scoring affair.

They have failed to score in seven of those and kept just three clean sheets. They managed three wins at the group stages and these came back to back before the shocker by Basel.

At a Premier League video conference on Friday, clubs reiterated a commitment to resuming the season "when safe and appropriate to do so". No-one is talking about playing now, it's not appropriate now, no-one is suggesting we will play now," Martin Semmens told BBC Radio Solent.
This meant Solskjaer's side had over two weeks to sign a replacement. What exactly were the club doing during that fortnight? The replacement ended up being a loan move for a 30-year-old striker who has been playing in China since 2017. No offence to either Ighalo or Murray, but United should be making moves for elite-level forwards.
