Rennes had a crucial match against 2nd placed Marseille at the weekend and could have made a real sign of intent for the season with a win. They controlled much of the match but were truly done by a Marseillaise smash-and-grab as the visitors scored a scrappy winner just before the end of play.

These are exciting times for Leicester and the title race is far from over because it is clear that they are not going to go away. Let's not kid ourselves - no matter what Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers might have said after Sunday's win over Aston Villa, he and his players will now be thinking they can push Liverpool all the way, and rightly so. Rodgers says he is happy for Leicester not to be seen as challengers but there are lots of reasons why they are genuine contenders, starting with their manager.
What is interesting about this game here is that they also met here at Monaco a couple of days ago also this week in the League Cup competition and Lille had really no problems winning the game with 3-0 in the end, Monaco did miss a penalty kick through Slimani at 2-0 for Lille in the second half but their coach rested couple of key players in that one and they paid the price losing big to Lille.
The gap is what it is," Guardiola said. After 28 fixtures, the gap is this. No doubts about this. They lost one game, they draw another one, it's because they deserve to be there. The league is deserved and it's done. In other competitions we have won two this season (including the Community Shield).
Fahm has two losses in a row at this moment losing a few days ago in the 90 minute of the game conceding the 2nd goal as they ended up losing 2-1 away from home at Beitar Tel Aviv, also a 2-0 loss at home and a 1-1 draw at Sakhnin but overall in all those games their defense looked very weak, still just a few weeks ago they defeated top club in Israel Maccabi Tel Aviv with 3-2 at home in the Israel Cup competition.

Spanish La liga game between Eibar and Valencia. Valencia have started the league after a long break with a win against Osasuna 2-0 at home, a draw at home against Levante 1-1 and a loss away to Real Madrid by 0-3. I think the recent win against Osasuna may be another turning point for the guests Valencia. Despite their return from a loss with Real Madrid during their last away trip, Valence has a more convincing form of taking the three points of the clash to keep the hope of their qualifiers in the Europa League this season alive. But Eibar is one of the best home teams. They are likely to remain unbeaten.
It was not like after one week I had to leave. No, it was mine. I left everything there; my television, my books, my computer. It was a flat with 'bring me a coffee latte, please', or 'I don't want to go down for dinner, bring my dinner up'. If I was watching football or doing work with one of my assistants I would ask; 'bring us food'.
Slutsk is having a great season on the pitch so far. They are on top of the standings and won 3 of the 5 matches scoring the most goals of anyone in the league. But surely this form is temporary as they do not have the means and players to fight for title but it has been one of the most consistent teams this season. Their most recent victory came against Shakhtyor Soligorsk where Slutsk have shown a red card and a penalty and still won the match. In contrast, things are getting tough to tougher for Belshina. But the draw against Smolevichi summed up the season so far. Another defeat is coming for them.
Torino have come through a bad patch and ninth in Serie A. They host Genoa who are in the relegation zone and have a terrible away record. The home side aren't the most consistent of sides but did recently win away at Genoa. With their opponents struggling defensively and when playing away from home, the tip here is for a Torino victory.
And without their injured Brazilian superstar, Neymar, PSG were indebted to Angel Di Maria for their seventh consecutive win in all competitions. The winger's cross-shot provided fellow Argentine Icardi with his first goal in six games. And Di Maria then delivered the corner from which German defender Kehrer doubled their lead, bringing up the club's 100th goal in all competitions this season. Tuchel's side are next in action when they host Lyon in Ligue 1 on Sunday, 9 February.
With Clement Lenglet suspended and Samuel Umtiti returning from the latest of many injuries, Gerard Pique could be the only available central defender for Saturday's trip to Real Mallorca. Young Uruguayan Ronald Araujo, who was sent off 14 minutes into his only previous first-team appearance, could be thrown in at the deep end. Barca's strength, of course, lies at the other end of the field. Lionel Messi is once again the league's leading scorer (19 goals in 22 appearances), and a huge bonus is the return of Luis Suarez, who was set to miss the remainder of the season with a knee injury before the pause in action allowed him to recover.
I got the call and went to see Villa's chief executive Keith Wyness in his office. I was suited and booted and was ready to go down to London for my medical, but it never got that far. Keith told me the deal was off. He said I was too vital to the team in the dressing room, and said: 'I know your situation with your knee. You are not going to start for us, but we want you as a back-up centre-half. It is at times like that you realise that there are some decisions in your career that are not yours to take, but I was not as disappointed about that as when the Inter move fell through.

Manchester City have been winning at half-time and full-time in their last four home matches in the league. Newcastle have won their last two away games in the league.

That will take it past the official end of the EFL league season and towards the last round of Premier League fixtures, which was supposed to be on 17 May. That would be getting very close to the point where the game has to restart if it is to meet the loose 30 June deadline which European football's governing body is working towards as the end of the 2019-20 campaign. Lower down, the FA's decision to declare the season below National League level null and void, and scrap promotion and relegation at all levels of non-league football from step three down, has caused fury.
Burnley chief executive Neil Hart said in a statement on the club's official website: "The safety and well-being of everyone in our area is our primary concern. To that end, we will willingly allow the Trust to utilise facilities at Turf Moor to help manage their demand in any way we can. Beyond that, when football resumes we will be paying our own tribute and saying thanks to the key workers of the NHS for the incredible jobs they are doing.
The top 18 teams are closer than that. Focusing on Forest and Leeds in particular, the gap is four points. Leeds are in the second automatic promotion spot and Forest have a play-off place thanks to their fourth-place position. Despite their lofty positions, both teams lost at the weekend (both suffering their seventh league defeats of the campaign).
A rush of blood to the head for Tottenham keeper Paulo Gazzaniga gifted Chelsea a penalty, awarded by VAR, just before halftime to put Chelsea in complete control. Tottenham's hopes of a revival were scuppered when Son needlessly kicked out at Antonio Rudiger and was shown a red card, with the decision again being made by VAR.
A howler by goalkeeper Tim Krul helped set Arsenal on their way to a win that lifts them up to seventh as bottom club Norwich City's hopes of staying in the Premier League faded further. Dutchman Krul lost possession to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the edge of his own penalty area for Arsenal's opener, the Gabon forward whipping the ball from his feet to score his 18th top-flight goal of the season.
The Accies also have a taste for goal when playing on home soil, scoring at least once in 5 of their last 7 games, which is why we're backing them to score here. We're going for over 2.5 goals in this game and with a final score of 2-1 to Rangers.
But it has taken the teenager time to cement a place in the first-choice XI. Five of his seven league starts this season have come since February. He has scored eight league goals (one every 115 minutes) this season. Only Michael Owen (twice), Robbie Fowler and Wayne Rooney have managed more in a Premier League season at the age of 18 or younger. Greenwood, who turns 19 on 1 October, has scored the same amount of league goals Rashford managed before his 19th birthday.
Eibar won this corresponding fixture narrowly 2-1 last term, and it looks like a case of any win will do this time around for Los Armeros who have slipped down to 15th. Eibar still hold a six point buffer over the relegation zone, but that could soon shrink on the run up to Christmas with tough assignments against Real Sociedad, Getafe and Athletic Bilbao to come – teams all currently placed in the top seven.

How long he can hold it together is anyone's guess. The new Tottenham manager has been handed one of the best squads in the country, the best stadium in the world and one of the best academies in the game - and that is all accompanied by state-of-the-art training facilities. If Mourinho can't win trophies at this club, he should consider retiring from football permanently. Let's face it, that's why he's been hired - to win trophies.
It left them dangerously exposed to counter-attacks, but Ferguson was always of the view that you may as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb. We could never have started with that line-up; it would have been brave going on suicidal,” said Gary Neville in his autobiography, Red. A final twenty minutes of desperation was another matter.

He did not use power but was calm and placed the ball where he wanted it. If you look at your goals now in the Brann - Molde game. You are so calm when you strike the ball, I mean, you was just 17 years old at that time. Where do you have that skill from? Have you learned a lot from Ole Gunnar?” Haaland replied “I forgot to tell you this, but before that game, Solskjaer and I did some practice on finishing.

This will be the fourth Copa America in six years but is slated to be the last one until 2024 as organisers move to a regular quadrennial format.

Brazil are the current holders after beating Peru in July to win the tournament for the ninth time.

Italian club Roma are considered trailblazers when it comes to their social media campaigns, having previously featured everything from black screens to the history of the Earth when announcing new player signings. This summer, they went for a more poignant approach by featuring missing children videos alongside their transfer announcements, with several featuring Lee. Some fans initially questioned why the club would combine the joy of a new signing with the sadness felt for a missing person, but, remarkably, five children highlighted in their videos were found.

He repeatedly clashed with the Football League, but, like Bates and GFH before him, could not stop throwing dead money at the club, nor win a place back at football's top table. Garry Monk led the team to 75 points in his sole season in charge in 2016-17 but no wins from the final five games somehow meant no play-offs. Top scorer Chris Wood and talented left-back Charlie Taylor left for Burnley, and Monk for Middlesbrough.
