The selection confirms that Liverpool are concentrating their senior player resources on the Club World Cup as they deal with a schedule clash. Klopp's side will play at Villa on 17 December at 19:45 GMT and will compete in the Club World Cup semi-final in Qatar the following day at 17:30 GMT.

That's 11 league games on the bounce without shutting out their opponents - and 26 goals conceded during that period. Hamilton are known for their survival skills, but the trend needs to change if they want to avoid the drop. Accies sink to another loss against Aberdeen Defensive chaosIn the thrilling 3-2 loss at the hands of Kilmarnock, it was clear Hearts needed to address multiple defensive frailties - one goal was from a goalkeeping error, one was from a long ball and one was poor tracking on the edge of the box.
They will particularly be concerned with the fact that they have conceded goals very late in recent matches. In their last five matches they have conceded inside the final 15 minutes in three, though they have also had a fair share of away goals. Four of their last five matches have yielded over 2. Monchengladbach have however been beastly in their home matches in the league; they are unbeaten in nine and have won eight of these.
Brighton beat Arsenal in their first game after the restart, and thereafter drew with Leicester but their rise was dented in a 3-0 loss to Manchester United. The win in their last match presented their second clean sheet but also gave them a boost as they rose farther from the drop zone. Brighton have presented themselves as a compact side after the restart – they haven’t scored many goals and at the same time defend in numbers.
Tomorrow we have another game and we're going to have to prove ourselves once again. Real are top of La Liga with 46 points from 21 games, three ahead of Barcelona, while Atletico are fifth on 36 points. SIMEONE BACKING Real's resurgence is in stark contrast to Atletico's fall from grace and Zidane gave his backing to his opposite number Diego Simeone, who has transformed the club's fortunes but finds himself in the most difficult stage of his eight-year tenure.
I want to thank my team mates and the U. S. Dutchman Matthijs de Ligt, a key player in Ajax Amsterdam's thrilling run to the Champions League semi-finals and now at Juventus, won the Kopa trophy for the best Under-21 male player in the world following a vote of international journalists. Alisson Becker, one of four Liverpool players in the top seven for the men's Ballon d'Or, was awarded the new Yashin trophy for the best male goalkeeper of the year.
And like Mourinho heading to West Ham, Solskjaer could have hardly asked for a worse weekend fixture amid all the speculation, with United heading the Sheffield United for a United Derby on Sunday. The Blades are fifth in the league, unbeaten in five games, and boast the second-best defence in the league behind Leicester.
For Lampard, it was not only his most significant league win in charge of Chelsea, against one of their biggest rivals, after a run of four defeats in five games. Video - Mourinho: 'I hate racism'00:38 It was also a triumph of tactics over his former mentor Jose Mourinho who, as Chelsea manager 15 years ago, turned Lampard from a promising player into the club's all-time top goal-scorer and one of England's best midfielders of his age.
They aren't always welcomed with open arms. Players are catalyst for change'Bhandari was only appointed as Kick It Out's new chair last September, replacing founder Lord Herman Ouseley, who had been in the role for 26 years. But he has already faced criticism from former board member Garth Crooks for not being an ex-player and therefore not understanding the trials some recent professionals have been through.

Another matter to consider is that as the outbreak is still at its early stages, with some estimating that the peak of the crisis will be in 10 to 14 weeks in the UK, is that it may not be considered fair to make clubs play if they have players who are unavailable due to illness, or worse. As clubs could be heavily affected at different points over the year, it may not be possible to ensure the integrity of the competition.

The players were unbelievable. It is not about me. It is about the players and the result and we got it. Asked whether this could yet be an even-longer-term period in charge, he said: "I don't know if I could go through that again. I need to get my fitness up with all that running down the touchline. I think the fans want the manager to be passionate, show that body language, get them onside. We are a family club - the Everton family - and we all want the best.

Zbrojovka Brno will host Dukla Praha for this fixture of the league. Perhaps, the hosts are favorites in this game. Brno is very ambitious team in this season. They are currently on the 2nd place with 37 points. Also, the hosts have a great winning series - 5 wins in a row. On the other hand Dukla Praha is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 5th place with 34 points. Yeah, the visitors have big fluctuations. However, Dukla Praha have better results in the last mutual matches. After all, I think, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance in this game. My pick - Dukla Praha to win.

While Cesar Azpilicueta has been solid down the right side, the choice of Marcos Alonso and Emerson is a sticking point at left-back. Ben Chilwell might be a fans’ first choice, however there’s likely no chance that Leicester will let him leave in January, particularly to a top-four rival. It might be a case of waiting until the summer to make that happen.
The visitors had a couple of chances for a consolation as Leeds loosened their grip with the game won, in particular James McClean firing over the top before Bamford crowned the hosts' performance, adding a fifth with the final kick of the game. What's next?Leeds travel to play-off hopefuls Swansea on Sunday, and also face Derby in their final four games as well as Stoke's relegation rivals Barnsley and Charlton.
Finally, do not exclude a destination like the MLS. ESTIMATED COST: £15m Luka ModricGetty Images 21. Thiago Silva (PSG) WHY COULD HE MOVE His contract expires in under three months but Silva is yet to indicate where he sees his future.

We are also backing a 2-1 away win, with Barnsley losing 11 of their last 17 at this level. The hosts have been beaten in four of their last five, while Hull have four wins in their last six. We expect a Barnsley goal as they’ve seen both teams score in 78% of their home games, so a 2-1 victory for Hull is our correct score pick.
Liverpool lead the Premier League at Christmas for the second successive year as they try to win a first top-flight title for 30 years. Being top on 25 December is, of course, no guarantee of glory - as the Reds have twice found out in previous seasons. In fact, they are the only club in the past nine years not to win the title from that position. Can you name the other 10 teams to have been a festive number one in the Premier League era?You have two minutes.

Tottenham's performance rather summed up their season. They were caught cold and were lucky that a defensive howler allowed Alli to reduce the arrears before the interval. In the second half, with Eriksen providing the ammunition for Kane, Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura, Tottenham were ruthless. With a home game against Bournemouth this weekend, Mourinho has every chance of starting with three straight wins.
I understand why Manchester United have to play him and I understand his mentality; he loves this club, plays for the shirt. He is is Manchester United's most important player but at some stage we have to take a step back and say: Let's not flog these players too much. It is not an England thing, this is about making sure he is ready for Manchester United over the next few years and not burning him out too often.
Freiburg have struggled versus non-possession-based sides at times this season. They have lost games against Hertha Berlin, Union Berlin, and Cologne already this season. Each of these sides have kept an average of under 48% possession in the Bundesliga, as have Mainz. We feel that Mainz present a difficult stylistic match-up for Freiburg.
Well there is no doubt which team is big favorite for the win in this one, villareal is in so good shape right now that anything except for their victory Will be a huge surprise, villareal won 5 in a row in all competitions and since they are at home very good it is all saying they Will continue their winning streak, on the other side espanyol played 2 2 with Barcelona but on the road they are even worse then they are at home so I expect easy and clean 2 0 or 3 0 win for the villareal today and I surely recommend this bet
