Real Betis' legendary captain Joaquin is showing no signs of slowing down after netting his first career hat-trick at 38 years and 140 days old. Winger Joaquin opened the scoring in the second minute against an Athletic Bilbao side with the best defensive record in La Liga. Having curled in his second after 11 minutes, he fired in again to complete an 18-minute treble after 20 minutes. That saw him become the oldest player to score a La Liga hat-trick.

Ed. But Arteta himself will have seen enough of Ozil - having spent time making plans for his downfall with Guardiola - to know what he thinks of the player. In all likelihood, Arteta has already made his mind up on the German midfielder, and his first few team-sheets will be very telling as to what he thinks.
In South Korea in K2, Gyeongnam FC receives Bucheon FC for a match between 7th and 3rd but who are separated by only 3 points. The locals this season have lost only 1 time on the road but have won only one match in 3 at home. Visitors are more solid on the move with 3 wins, than at home with already 2 losses. But Bucheon's wins were against poorly ranked. An interesting game in which the Gyeongnam is a former first division team but is currently in good shape, they play very attacking but have problems in defense. The guests are a solid team and I think they can give a goal to the host.
There are eight to 10 big countries. The margins are really, really fine. If England win their group they could face a last-16 tie in Dublin against Germany, France or holders Portugal -- all of whom are in a tough-looking Group F. The group has the winners of the last three big international tournaments," Portugal coach Fernando Santos said.
They have failed to score in just three of their last eight matches at home, but then kept two clean sheets in the three matches. Of the 14 wins Wolves have managed in the Premier League this season, seven have come at home and having beaten Everton 3-0 in their last home game, they will be keen to wrap up their home matches on a high.
We have been given a return-to-training date of 15 May, but in a controlled environment, with the season proposed to start on 18 May. We have certain players who are far away from home: they have come here to play for the club and the fact they cannot do their jobs has left them feeling frustrated. Having said that, this past week the morale among the group has been the highest since the lockdown started.

But most importantly of all, why did he always wear everything from the club shop?"I started wearing a cap at Priestfield when I was Gillingham manager and we got promoted. The following year it was on and off and we finished mid-table. I decided then that I would get a baseball cap and use it all the time. I was losing my hair at a young age and it kept me warm, going up north in the third division.
In contrast, the defenders flanking Egan or Jagielka - O'Connell and Basham - are encouraged to make long diagonal runs that carry them outside wing-backs Baldock and Stevens, who in turn cut in off the flanks. This was something I saw them do in the Championship," added Lawrenson. A lot of teams probably don't think they have players that have the ability to do it - to come out and play the way Sheffield United's defenders do.
While Le Mans have struggled to pick up regular wins in Ligue 2 of late, PSG come into this match in fine form, both in terms of winning and scoring. That said, PSG didn't exactly go wild when beating a second division side at this stage of the competition last season. They travelled to take on Orleans and won by just two goals to one. They also needed extra-time to get better of a lower-level side in the Coupe de France last term.

Frosinone is with 5 wins in a row at home at this moment and all those wins came with them keeping clean sheets in every of those wins, while their last 4 home games they won by at least 2 goals difference every time as they won 4-0 with Empoli, 2-0 with both Pescara and Chievo and 3-0 with Trapani while prior to these decent wins they won 1-0 with Livorno also at home, and of course with such good results they are involved in the fight for promotion right now.
Oxford have seen a lot of low scoring games 4 of their past 5 home and away games have gone under 1.5 goals. They have been defending at their best at the moment and played well over the past few weeks. They will be once again a hard team to score against and will not give the home team a lot of chances to score in this game. Also they are not a team to take on the game much as well making this looking like a defending game and not a attacking as much. The goals will go under 1.5
He was a constant pain for the Paris St Germain defence, and got his rewards with two goals in the second half. Haaland looks every inch the real deal.

Saint-Étienne faced PSG in midweek with a bit of hope following their rather casual 3-0 victory over Bastia-Borgo in the Coupe de France. Saint-Étienne have endured a poor start to the campaign with them sitting 14th in the league at Christmas so were looking for a boost in the Coupe de la Ligue as they travelled to the capital. Les Verts were royally blown away though as they crumbled to a 6-1 defeat. Sainté did have a man sent off after half an hour but a team of their stature really shouldn’t have fell away the way they did.
Middlesbrough pulled off one of the shocks of the season on Sunday, as they triumphed 2-0 at West Brom. They went from failing to win an away game all season to toppling the league leaders, so it was a great result for Jonathan Woodgate.

For all the moralising, Hegerberg's ongoing absence has drawn more attention to the situation than it would have done had she played and then tried to make her voice heard post-match.

Tobias Haupt, head of the DFB Academy, the unit tasked with devising and organising coach education, said: "Klinsmann is a true thoroughbred coach, German football owes him a lot, and he is one of the national team honorary captains. That said, of course certain rules also apply to him. That is now being checked. Haupt added: "We know that over the last few years he has actively sought to widen his coaching horizon by taking part in further training courses, for example in Mexico and Brazil, where maybe less attention was paid to issuing badges or certificates.
That's an issue for the Premier League or the authorities to work out, not for the fans on the terraces," he adds. He also says supporters of other clubs would feel the same way, before referencing Manchester City and Sheffield United. Choosing between Ashley and a Saudi-backed bid must seem a world away for fans of Norwich City, who are owned by former television chef Delia Smith and her partner Michael Wynn-Jones.
CLOSE! As soon as Newcastle get into the game, a corner from Grealish is slammed at goal by the head of Ezri Konsa, but Martin Dubravka stands firm and Newcastle survive! 61' CLOSE!

FC Ashgabat will host Balkan for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites in this game. Ashgabat is very average team in this league. They are currently on the 3rd place with 7 points. Also, the hosts are in better shape. They have two consecutive victories. In last game Ashgabat is won 0-1 against weak Mere. On the other hand Balkan is not very good team in this campaign. They are currently on the 6th place with 3 points. Balkan are more vulnerable team in the last matches. In last game Balkan lost 1-2 against Energetik. I think, the hosts will closer to victory. Also, maybe this is - draw.

Real is the new league leader and they are high on confidence this year. They have won straight 7 since the turn of the year and now, Barcelona is looking at their backs. Atletico is 10 points behind Real and it seems that this season will be a total wash. Atletico has spent big money on signings that haven`t worked and with the injury to Costa, they miss that aggression in the attack. Atletico has been bad away from home and they won only 2 of the last 12 matches. Atletico will miss Koke, Costa, Felix, Trippier, Gimenez and that is just huge for this match. Real is without Asencio and Hazard.
Alexander SørlothGetty Images Rekdal is less certain. He went to the Premier League and did not do so well, then it was a loan to Gent and now on a two-year loan to Trabzonspor. Then he has to get Crystal Palace back, or he has to go to Spain, Italy, Germany. It may well be that he should change club to get to a higher level.
In the second German Bundesliga, it remains to play only 4 rounds and each match takes on special significance. Darmstadt receives Vechen on his field, if everything is very clear for the guests, if they don’t start scoring points right now, then they will have a flight. And given their recent results, the chances of this are extremely high. As for the hosts, they still have a theoretical option to try to cling to butt games, there are not many chances for this, but it's worth a try. Therefore, I think that Darmstadt should win today, but I really must score on my field

Emery's away record, as it had been before in his career, was abysmal and showed no signs of improving. Arsenal won seven and lost eight of their 19 games last season and this season have won one of six. It was an acute case of travel sickness. Emery had no cure - and ultimately paid with his job. The telling stats behind Emery's downfall at ArsenalCommunication breakdown It is one of the cheapest shots in the book to mock a manager's command of English when he arrives in the Premier League - and Emery made every effort to communicate in that manner from the moment he arrived at Arsenal.

Forest Green is 4-2-2 at home this season maybe not that great record but they have won both games over Crewe at home in the past two seasons first with 3-2 and last season with 1-0 a goal scored right before half-time which made sure they got all 3 points from that game and are sitting on 2nd place at this moment on a direct promotion place to the 3rd league level.
Manchester United are seven points clear of Brighton with two games in hand. Manchester United have lost three away games but two were against the top couple of sides in the table.

Pauline Bremer Manchester City are the side closest to stopping the Blues right now as they eased past Bristol City. German striker Pauline Bremer again shined as she moved to joint top of the goalscoring charts with two against Bristol.
