So it may be that he is meant to play a role, but it makes no sense if he has to sit on the bench.

in the 17th round of the Austrian Bundesliga, Wolfsberger hosts Lask Linz. Both teams have had setbacks recently and they welcome this match as a chance for improvement. Wolfsberger dropped out of the Europa League and they lost some matches in the league. They lost 4 of the last actually. They have 30 points so far and they are the discovery of the season. They are a resilient home side but they will miss one of their key players today - Schmid. Lask lost 4:0 at home to Rapid but the loss is overhyped. They had chances to score and even a draw wouldn`t have been unlikely. They will miss their first scorer Goiginger which is a big blow but goals are coming from everywhere in Alaska. Lask has 8-0-0 away from home which says a lot about their game. I believe they can win here.

the most important game in football in Serbia and of course it is extremely important for both teams to win when they are playing head to head and this time despite the odds I think crvena zvezda has way more chances to win, they are dominant in the league and they already won a league title so they will be very motivated to get the cup too, it is not going to be easy but partizan lost couple of days ago from Spartak in league and Spartak is average team so I think on this odd it surely worth to bet on crvena zvezda

Lukashenko is planting trees during the cleanup, football is in full swing and everything seems to be not so bad, well, according to the president, of course. Minsk “Dynamo” meets “Slutsk” at the home stadium in the seventh round. Dynamo feels just fine and shows quality football from tour to tour. “Slutsk” - is rather weak and certainly weaker than “Dynamo”. Most likely, the guests will not be able to score, but to win for sure. “Dynamo” over the past five matches has not been defeated. The team has four victories and one draw match. “Slutsk” over the past five matches won only once, tied twice and lost twice. Dynamo scores a lot and in this match is likely to win, but I do not think that with a big score.

Meanwhile, the Rams have failed to score in their last three trips. They’ve hit just 0.8 goals per game on the road, which has seen them lose by two or more in three of their four away defeats. Fulham have won by two or more in 60% of their home wins, while they were able to see off QPR without top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic. He’s back this week, which has us backing Fulham with a -1 Asian Handicap. This bet requires the hosts to win by two clear goals, but if they win by one we get a refund.

I spoke to the manager last night and he told me there were 50,000 fans here at the weekend against Oxford. You can't go wrong with that kind of passion and support from the fans, and it's something I'm looking forward to.
That blocked a potential reprieve from relegation for Thistle, Stranraer and likely Hearts, who are bottom of the Premiership. Hearts and Thistle have said they may pursue legal action.

Surely all 20 clubs must agree the fairest way forward to complete the season?"Player contracts a Monday focusThe national lead for football policing, deputy chief constable Mark Roberts, told ITV that clubs should "get a grip" and stop complaining about neutral venues.

But Professor James Calder - who has chaired the cross-sport working group with government and health officials on the return to sport - has told BBC Sport that sports events are highly unlikely to have full capacity crowds this year. I would be very surprised if we could get full stadia back this year," he said. Realistically I think it probably will need a vaccine and also a high take-up rate of that vaccine before we can really see full capacity stadia.
