Man Utd 1-1 Watford (Deeney) Watford equalise from the corner! It was swung towards the near post, where Dawson stooped to head onto the post.
But they have continued to lose at home, with last week's 2-1 defeat by Burnley their eighth home reverse of the season. Manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has spoken about the pressure of playing at home, challenging his players to turn St Mary's back into a fortress, and they started like a side with the Austrian's words still ringing in their ears. Recalled winger Djenepo was a constant threat on the left, despite having his head bandaged midway through the first half, and Will Smallbone also impressed after coming in for his Premier League debut - a day after turning 20.

Manchester United's attempt to sign Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes has stalled because the clubs cannot agree a fee. Sporting are demanding 80m euros (£68m) for the 25-year-old, which United are unwilling to pay. Talks continue between the clubs for a player rated at 45m euros by Tottenham Hotspur last summer. United have not ruled out targeting alternatives having made a priority of looking at midfield options this month.
He will be a hands-on owner, providing input on everything from player selection to shower tiles. The club has ambitions not to just be an MLS powerhouse but a global brand much like Beckham himself. When you talk about hands on there is no bigger hands on owners than you are looking at right now," said Beckham, sitting alongside Mas.
Over 90 minutes, the only home game lost by Oxford in the last 14 has been against Manchester City. Oxford United are yet to concede a goal in this season's FA Cup. Hartlepool have only won one of their last six away games. Oxford United are having a successful season both in the league and the cups.
Whilst there's no competitive pressure on the game, PSG will still be hungry to end what's been an excellent group stage campaign with another strong performance. After 5 matches, the Ligue 1 champions have dropped just two points, in a draw at Real Madrid and have been the dominant force in the group.
The Bavarians, in third place four points behind leaders RB Leipzig, take on former coach Juergen Klinsmann's Hertha Berlin on Sunday with several players still nursing injuries, including winger Serge Gnabry, Niklas Suele and Javi Martinez. There is some good news for interim Bayern coach Hansi Flick, who took over from Nico Kovac in November, as Robert Lewandowski, the league's top scorer, returned to training this week after minor surgery late last year.
Serdar's curled low shot gave the hosts a deserved win after they dominated the second half as gutsy Union ran out of gas. Schalke are level on 25 points with leaders Borussia Moenchengladbach who welcome Freiburg on Sunday. Champions Bayern Munich, a point behind, host Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday. Schalke took the lead with a powerful Benito Raman strike in the 23rd but the in-form Berliners had a string of good chances before levelling with a Marcus Ingvartsen penalty 13 minutes later.
Nes has to for the win here, and to seek for the first rival not to win three points against group top team in the final round of this season. Tziona did improve recently, and with two winning games, made some space for the fight to avoid relegation. They are on the same amount of points, like Kyrat Shimona, and should try beating Hapoel in this one.
Porto have managed 28 points so far while Pacos have eight points, from 11 matches. Home team, Porto goes to this game on the back of four wins and a loss in their last five.

Another very interesting friendly match for today and this one will be play in Northern Balkans, or in Slovenia. Nafta and Beltinci are two small teams who are not so good in quality and they are have in last few seasons main goal and that is goal to play in elite league in this country, what will not be easy to do. Nafta is few years ago played in elite one season but this one, they are again, like today's rival, also in second division. I see here very relaxing match, with plenty of chances and goals, that is real.

We came together in difficult circumstances to find solutions to allow us to play football while ensuring we protect the safety and security of all players, officials, stakeholders and fans," said AFC secretary-general Windsor John. John said representatives of the six member associations involved - Australia, China, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia and Thailand - agreed to postpone matches involving Chinese clubs that will take place in the first three matchdays.
Every manager who has had Pogba in his squad, with the exception of perhaps one, has never really focused him on one particular position. This has been particularly notable in Manchester thanks to the constant revolving door in the manager's office. It feels as if Pogba has become the prototype of the good eclectic midfielder, able to everything but without excelling at anything.
You see with some of the Spanish and Brazilian players here, they bring something different to the team. There was a tournament where we finished 14th out of 20. We all learned so much from that tournament. There was another where we finished second but we probably didn't learn half as much as we did in the previous one. It is around the ages of 13, 14, 15 that you learn a lot. From 15 to 18, that is your moment to start trying to mature because the men's game is a lot different to academy football.
We have always had quality up front - we had Fernando Torres, we had Luis Suarez - when we fell fell short in the league before, but that is not enough on its own. Is this title the start of a spell of Liverpool dominance? Big Zuu hopes so but he is not convinced. I think we are away from those times when teams could win three in a row like Manchester United did. I obviously hope we can go on to win it again and again but you can never count out City, because if they sort out their defence they still have one of the best attacks there is.
But we can still improve on that one. United will make a late decision on the availability of their unwell and injured players. Lingard and Anthony Martial missed Saturday's goalless FA Cup draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers through illness and defender Harry Maguire picked up a knock during the match at Molineux Stadium.
Greenwood] looks a threat, every time he comes on. I think Ole is handling him in the right way at the moment, bringing him on, impact player. It’s just how long you can keep him like that, because also when he starts games he’s scoring goals. We talk about Martial, he’s not doing enough, he’s not much of a goal threat, no chances in the box, so it won’t be long before Mason Greenwood starts.
This award was done and dusted at half time. The Belgian was supreme and was clearly the game's protagonist with two goals and an assist. He was unlucky not to snare the match ball when he hit the woodwork at the end of the first period. Led the Gunners a merry dance throughout as City eased their way through the second 45.
It's fascinating and mesmerising to be a Sheffield United fan right now - and it must be for many in football from the outside looking in too. We are seventh in the Premier League and I'm not sure what to do with that. I have never known success as a football fan - Sheffield United or England. I hate to say it but I'm almost waiting for something to go wrong. I spoke to the communications officer at United the other day and we were laughing at how manager Chris Wilder had to do nine post-match interviews.

Cardiff City's appeal against paying the first instalment of 6m euros (£5. Nantes for £15m striker Emiliano Sala is set for next spring. The appeal will be heard by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland. Cardiff do not believe they are liable for a transfer fee, but Fifa ruled in September the club must pay for Sala.

Cristiano Ronaldo Cristiano Ronaldo was voted the world's best player in 2008 while at Manchester UnitedClubs: Manchester UnitedPremier League appearances: 196Goals: 84Premier League titles: ThreeDescribed by some as a 'show pony' early in his Manchester United career, it took time for Cristiano Ronaldo to find his best form at Old Trafford. However, once he did, he was transformed into a goal-machine as he set himself on the way to becoming arguably the finest footballer of his generation.
Laporte, 25, returned in City's 1-0 win over Sheffield United in January, following surgery on a knee injury in August 2019. Guardiola said, after that match, that his return may have been "a risk", but described the Frenchman as the "best left-sided central defender in the world". Laporte, making only his fourth appearance since his comeback, was replaced by Fernandinho after 33 minutes in Madrid.
But Derby restored their two-goal advantage when Marriot headed powerfully at goal and, although David Cornell got a strong hand to it, the ball had just gone over the goalline. Northampton pressed to try and set up a tense finish but hopes of comeback were ended when a foul on Lawrence presented Rooney with the chance to get on the scoresheet and he made no mistake with confident spot-kick into the bottom corner.
This would be a big chance for the away team, to push for another good performance and try getting out of the low place. They have won big home game against favorite Juventus, and should be able to make another good performance here. Sabanas is in the rise of the playing shape, and despite being at the bottom, team did not lost a lot of the games recently in the season.
Guardiola knows he must earn contract Pep Guardiola has admitted that he is under pressure when it comes to earning a new contract at Manchester City. He has 18 months left on his current deal and is yet to commit to an extended stay. The Mirror quotes him as saying: “I think, in football, one-and-a-half years is a long time for the managers, a lot, a lot of time, so we have to see altogether how it works, how it’s going on.
Blackburn may view their draw with Wigan on Monday as two points gifted away on the eve of Christmas, but spirits should still be high after their seven-game unbeaten run. An injury to Bradley Dack overshadowed the meeting at Ewood Park, but the hosts will be hoping that Birmingham’s problems result in another home win.
After a slow start to their season, BATE Borisov are in top form now. They have four wins in their last five games and will be disappointed if they don't get three points from this match. They are only three points behind leaders FC Slutsk who they play at home the following weekend. Smolevichi are struggling for points and goals and have lost their last two games. The tip here is for an away win with BATE leading at half and full time.

After more than 3 months of suspension, the Japanese second division will continue with the second round. Before that, Zweigen Kanazawa had a 0-1 defeat at Fagiano Okayama. In contrast, Matsumoto Yamaga won 2-1 at Ehime Stadium. This is not a surprising result when Matsumoto has just dropped out of the league (J1 League). Previously, the two teams had 3 seasons together in the 2nd division from 2016-2018. As a result, Matsumoto easily won all 6 confrontations and 5/6 clean sheets. More broadly, Matsumoto also won 10 and drew 1 match against Zweigen and had 8/11 clean sheets. Therefore, the away team is a very favored choice in this match. Last season, Zweigen finished only 11/22 teams with a record of winning 15, drawing 16 and losing 11 matches. In particular, they won 7, drew 11 and lost only 3 home games. Meanwhile, Matsumoto finished 17/18 in the J-League with only 6 wins, 13 draws and 15 losses. In particular, they only won 3, drawn 4 and lost 8 away matches and 13/15 conceded matches.

Ferencvaros ”- the main news provider in the championship of Hungary. And not just because the head coach is Ukrainian Sergey Rebrov. On Wednesday, Fradi rolled up a real thriller with a sad ending for itself in the match against Pak. “Ferencvaros” until the 90th minute led 2-0, but managed to miss twice in stoppage time and eventually shared the points with an outsider. But this does not stop him from taking the championship, so such flaws are excusable. Ferencvaros has every chance to win the championship, while in each game they play very carefully. I think that there will be a minimum victory for the hosts, somewhere 2-0
Rennes spoiled the party last time out and currently hold the crown. They remain in the competition and we could yet get an epic rematch of last year's finale. Not if Dijon can help it though. The mustardy minnows have been battling relegation this season (they are three points clear of the drop in 17th place) but if demotion beckons then they at least have a scalp to take to the second tier with them; that belongs to the big bad wolf of French football, PSG.
The game will be played behind closed doors, with safety measures meaning fans are not yet allowed to attend the matches at the stadiums.

The rights to show English top-flight games in the Middle East belong to Qatar-based beIN Sports, which is in the middle of a three-year deal with the Premier League worth £400m. Saudi Arabia has always denied aiding the beoutQ operation and insists there is no link between its government and the alleged piracy. The Premier League, Fifa, Uefa, La Liga and the Bundesliga have all tried to bring about proceedings in Saudi courts, but have been blocked by the country's government.
