Gattuso, who will be coaching in the competition for the first time in Tuesday's match, replaced Carlo Ancelotti in December with the team in disarray after the club fined the players for refusing to take part in a training camp. His initial attempts to remedy the situation only made things worse as they lost four of their first six matches under his leadership, dropping to 13th in Serie A.
He is also only the second player, alongside former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy, to achieve such a feat on more than one occasion. So, as the most ruthless Englishman in the division, shouldn't Vardy be a certainty to make Gareth Southgate's England squad for next summer's European Championships? Jamie Vardy is ahead of Tammy Abraham (Chelsea), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal) and Sadio Mane (Liverpool) in the top scorers charts after 16 matches this seasonRodgers says his man deserves to be in the reckoning, but the 32-year-old effectively retired from international football at the beginning of last season - before his current boss arrived at the club.
England captain Kane had an operation to repair the damage following the injury suffered at Southampton on New Year's Day and was expected to return to training in April. From a rehab point of view and personal point of view, I'm doing really well," Kane told the Spurs website. I'm at a good stage now and just working hard, doing a lot of recovery, a lot of rehab and just waiting to see what happens to the season.
Sadio Mane's goal restored Liverpool's 13-point lead over Leicester City at the top of the table but it was only confirmed after a lengthy VAR review to check for a possible handball by Adam Lallana in the build-up. We're in December and coming into January. Players standing around that long is not good," Liverpool boss Juergen Klopp said.

Pisa and Pordenone will face each other in the upcoming match in the Serie B. Pisa this season have the following results: 4W, 5D and 4L. Meanwhile Pordenone have 6W, 4D and 3L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
I'm delighted for him. The result boosts Leicester's Champions League chances, with the 2016 title-winners sitting eight points above fifth-placed Manchester United with nine matches remaining. Reina error increases Villa's problems Pepe Reina was a long way off his line when Harvey Barnes beat him to the ball to score the openerVilla's cup keeper Orjan Nyland played well in their Carabao Cup final defeat by Manchester City last Sunday and there was some talk that he could keep his place instead of Reina being recalled.
The Uruguay-Ghana quarter-final in Johannesburg in 2010 had a bit of everything, including Luis Suarez's handball on the line. But my current answer to this is the pulsating Manchester City 5-3 Monaco Champions League match of a couple of years ago. Which also happened to feature one of. The best goals I've commentated on live Falcao scored twice and missed a penalty in the Champions League game against Manchester City.
Alfredo Morelos did make his first appearance for the club since December after serving a three-game ban following his sending off at Celtic Park late last year. County, meanwhile, remain ninth - five points off the bottom - after their winless run was extended to seven matches in all competitions. Defoe injury may change Rangers plansPolice examining Morelos' car after 'tampering' claimReaction & how it happenedDefoe makes short work of County After Sunday's shock 2-1 defeat at Hearts, Gerrard would have expected and demanded an instant reaction against County.
Football's return after the break enforced by the coronavirus crisis was never going to be easy. Now one Portuguese top-flight club have announced they will play their home games 892 miles away at the Portuguese FA headquarters when matches resume. Santa Clara, from the Azores, have been forced to make the move because of lockdown restrictions at their usual home. Anyone arriving in the Azores, a group of small islands in the Atlantic Ocean 850 miles off the coast of mainland Portugal, must undertake a mandatory 14-day quarantine.
Good news is that before the end of the month we have two new players, Hugo Lloris and Ben Davies. This is good news," he said of the imminent return of keeper Lloris, who has been injured since Mourinho took over, and left back Davies who has made only one appearance in that period. I don't want to speak about Harry because if I speak too much I get depressed, and then you say I'm miserable and in a bad mood.

I've really enjoyed them. I love the feedback I get and knowing [the fans] have enjoyed it," Scott told BBC Sport.

A natural striker. Ighalo impresses punditsIghalo also caught the eye of two former Manchester United players covering the game for BT Sport. Midfielder Paul Scholes said: "He did well and looked sharp. He's come into this team at the right time, just as a really creative player has come in in Bruno Fernandes. If United need to rely on him I think he'll do a good job. And another former England midfielder Owen Hargreaves agreed: "I like the fact he gives United a reference point.
Really great odds on Inter to be winning this game by a couple of goals difference as even in Bulgaria they won the first leg with 2-0 in the end as there was a clear difference in terms of class between these two teams and it was indeed expected as in the group stage of the Europa League, Ludogorets despite finishing ahead of Ferencvaros and CSKA Moscow they lost with no less than 6-0 away from home in Spain at Espanyol.
There has been plenty of speculation about who Newcastle might buy this summer but who would be Bay's dream signing? "If it was a player who I think we could get, I'd like it to be Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona," he said. There has already been a lot of talk about him coming and I wonder if he just really enjoyed it in the Premier League when he was with Liverpool and he could come back to life with us.
Salzburg is practically already a champion in the league, since LASK is hard to get it close to them at the table in the next games. They will go for the win against Hartberg, but their rival is one of rare teams that manage to avoid to be defeated in duel with the Champion.
Monchengladbach have seen over 3.5 goals scored in four of their last five Bundesliga home games. Meanwhile, Bayern have seen over 3.5 goals scored in seven of their last eight Bundesliga away games. We are confident that Saturday's meeting of these two teams will see plenty of goals scored.

National soccer federation chief Luis Rubiales led a revamp of the Super Cup by expanding the contest between the league champions and Copa del Rey winners to a four-team format, and shifting the event from August to January and pledging to take it outside Spain. The move to Saudi Arabia has nevertheless led to criticism from human rights groups as well as traditionalist fans of the competition in Spain.
Pogba responded by saying he did not know who the three-time European Cup winner was. I heard he was a great player and stuff like that. I know the face but (not) the name," Pogba said. I watch a lot of football but I don't stay after the game to listen to what they say about why they did this or why they did that.

Summer signing Luka Jovic has failed to make an impact since his summer transfer to the Bernabeu so Real Madrid are ready to invest in Haaland, who has lit up the footballing world this season. Dortmund value the 19-year-old at £65 million and Real are willing to meet the German club's demands. The report also states that Real Madrid view RB Leipzig's Timo Werner and Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez as potential alternative strikers to Haaland.
On the other flank, Diogo Jota was a real threat, too. His linkup with Jonny Otto was causing all sorts of problems, but Moussa Sissoko and Eric Dier were screening the midfield well. Raul Jimenez went close with a header and then a shot, which went inches wide after good combination with Jota. Dier then almost doubled the visitors’ lead when he struck the post after a clever one-two with Dele Alli.

These two sides drew 2-2 away at Etar earlier this season but Etar lost most of their away games so far this season this while Botev has even defeated strong Levski Sofia with 1-0 at home last round and also won two rounds ago on the road at Dunav Ruse with 2-1 in the end so two wins in a row for them at this moment and they have every chance to make it 3 wins in a row here as well as they won this fixture last season with 2-0 in the end and also Etar is poor on the road this season.
In terms of a correct score tip, we do not think there should be too much between the two sides but ultimately the hosts should prove to be too strong and should come out on top. They may only average 0.85 goals per game at home, but as already established, we expect there to be goals. Given that the last three Salford defeats have all come by a single goal margin and they concede an average of 1.54 goals per game on the road, backing a 2-1 home win is where we are putting our confidence.
Led by its president Gianni Infantino, FIFA has decided to alter the format of its annual Club World Cup from next year, turning it from a seven-team tournament between regional champions into a 24-team event in China in June and July 2021. The new-look Club World Cup will be staged once every four years, although Tebas believes FIFA, supported by major clubs, will try to hold the event every two years.
Roared on by the home fans, Howe's team threw bodies forward and almost fashioned an equaliser when Nathan Ake connected with Cook's knock-down, but the Dutchman's powerful shot flew straight at Patricio. Next up for the Cherries? A trip to north London to face Jose Mourinho's Tottenham. More to follow.
TALKING POINT VAR, what else? Here we are again. Three times in one Premier League match day the dreaded VAR offside lines have been out to rule a goalscorer offside by the finest of margins. Pukki thought he had given Norwich a two-goal lead, after coming back into an onside position, but his celebrations were cut short as VAR Chris Kavanagh adjudged his armpit to be offside.
Not high odds but I don't see the hosts losing this match at home and could also win for me and so my bet is the DNB on them. The teams are Sampdoria and Brescia for the Serie A in Italy. Hosts have 16 points and guests 14 and both teams are in bottom zone. Home team are coming from a good draw away against Milan and at home they did only 1 defeat in the last 5 h2h and so this could be a good matchup. Guests did 2 defeats and a draw in the last 3 matches played.

Bournemouth is in terrible shape and after 4 wins in a row they are on the edge of relegation zone and they are struggling to even score a goal so I think it is hard to believe they could score more then one goal tonight of they score even that one and on the other side Brighton is also not in so good shape and they failed to beat Aston villa at home in last round and scored just one goal in that match so I think under 2.5 is pretty safe bet for this match and I surely recommend it
DOHA, Dec 24 (Reuters) - Qatar will begin sifting through fan feedback from the Club World Cup to see how it can provide supporters with a successful World Cup in 2022, but cultural differences will be a tricky challenge to surmount. The first ‘trial run’ for the Qatari 2022 World Cup completed at the weekend, with Liverpool defeating Brazil's Flamengo in the final.
Simone Inzaghi’s side beat Parma 1-0 last weekend to set a new club record of 18 Serie A games without defeat, with their last loss coming on Sept. Inter. With two of their rivals facing off, Juventus know that victory in their home game against relegation-battling Brescia on Sunday is essential. Juve coach Maurizio Sarri came in for fierce criticism after his side fell to a shock 2-1 defeat to Hellas Verona last weekend, with media reports in Italy suggesting that the club are considering replacing him with former boss Massimiliano Allegri.
Speculation over a possible link between coronavirus cases in Liverpool and the club's Champions League match with Atletico Madrid last month is an "interesting hypothesis", a scientific adviser to the UK government has said. Some coronavirus deaths in Liverpool have been blamed on the 11 March match at Anfield, which was attended by more than 52,000 people, including 3,000 from Madrid, where a partial lockdown was already in force.
