The futures of Blues wingers Willian and Pedro are yet to be decided, but it is understood Hudson-Odoi is looking forward to the competition. Asked if he had seen any frustration from Hudson-Odoi over a lack of playing time, Lampard said: "No, but I'd expect my players to want to play as much as they can. I pick a lot on how players train daily and what they can give us, so it's the same as every other player.
It's great for everybody, including the fans, to see our players back on the training ground. Asked what date the league was targeting for a return, Masters said the organisation has to be "flexible". He also recognised the need for "contingency plans" and said "curtailment is still a possibility", meaning the season would be stopped. Phase one of the return to training features small groups training with social distancing maintained.
Arsenal were knocked out of the second-tier Europa League in the round of 32 last week by Olympiakos Piraeus. They are 10th in the Premier League and face a stiff task to finish inside the top four and ensure automatic Champions League qualification. We're in that situation because we haven't performed as well as the other top four clubs.

A lack of goals has meant that Palace have struggled to pick up wins consistently, but this fixture against a Championship team that has been poor on the road presents them with a good opportunity to hit their stride.
Tottenham have never drawn a Champions League group stage game at home, with the north London side winning 10 and losing four. Son Heung-min has scored five Champions League goals this season - he is the first Asian player to reach the tally in a single season in the competition. Harry Kane has scored five goals in his last three appearances against Greek teams in European competition, after failing to net in his first two such games.
I have never heard a word from Abramovich: 'Let's get this ready for a sale,' or something," Buck told The Guardian "Because of the political situation, there are people who think they might want to buy Chelsea at a bargain. We do get inquiries and we really have nothing to say to these people. Van Dijk more deserving of Ballon d'Or than Messi.

We have, from studies over the years, seen there are elevated risks for anxiety and different psychological problems for players compared to the general population because it's a tense and precarious employment for most of them and (this) makes it worse. Football around the world has been brought to a standstill by the pandemic with domestic leagues put on hold and the Euro 2020, Copa America and Olympic soccer tournaments postponed for one year.
Spurs are also said to be interested in Piatek, but hesitant to meet the £30m asking price. Video - Liverpool make shock move for Napoli man - Euro Papers01:14 Paper Round's view: Piatek's future will be speculated right until the very second the window closes, unless of course he moves beforehand. He is clearly not the first-choice for either Spurs or Chelsea, so the question will be whether either side settles for the Polish international, or if they wait for the summer to make a permanent signing.

Interclube and Recreativo do Libolo will face to face in this matchday on Saturday. Both teams are run a terrible shape, and follow each other in the rankings. The away team have 4 points clear advantage and they have 1 win out of their last 5 matches, while the home team running one of the longest active winless streak in the championship. Both teams have higher goal per match record than league average. I expect this Girabola fixtures will bring the most goals on Saturday events. The away team won the latest previous meeting on autumn by 1 goal difference. My tip: 2-1 or 1-2.
Certainly it will be a much more balanced match as suggested by the betting odds. In my opinion they are a bit exaggerated, I think FC Paris will not lose first of all. The fact is that it takes a far place in the league table but this is the result of poor form at the beginning of the season. Currently, it looks completely different. In a few recent matches, Paris suffered only one defeat with the Caen team but after a good game, result 2: 4. They won three games and a draw with Grenoble. Nancy, after all, does not impress with anything special, a whole series of draws and nothing more. Also note the direct matches of these teams, Paris has won the last four. All these arguments allow me to conclude that the team from Paris will not lose this match.
Verona were recently beaten at this venue but their form prior to that was encouraging. At the prices, the home win appeals. The fact that they've conceded very few goals in front of their own fans bodes well ahead of a match against a side that has struggled to score away goals against teams not in the bottom three. Torino's form – lost four out of four on the road – prior to beating two weak sides doesn't exactly point towards them doing well against an astute host. Furthermore, Verona have done a much better job of matching teams when it comes to shots on target, as they've registered as many as they've conceded at home. In contrast, Torino have an average shots on target supremacy of -2.14 on the road.
At home, Rovers are particularly tough to silence, which is why they've lost just one out of nine at Memorial Stadium. Such a record doesn't bode well for Saturday's visitors, who've only won one out of ten on the road this term.
Tomori is excellent in possession and has the speed to track opposition forwards. The Blues academy graduate has vied for a starting berth with more experienced internationals Antonio Rudiger, Kurt Zouma and Andreas Christensen, but the endeavours of this season will hold him in good stead. Did you know? Tomori is averaging 80 passes per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season, the most of any player aged 22 or younger.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. For today I will give you prediction about this game from Champions League between two of the best teams in the league this season.

When United played Bayern at home in the group stage in December, he wasn’t even on the bench. I felt important anyway because I played in the FA Cup and League,” he said. I scored quite a few goals that season. Solskjaer gets all the credit for scoring the winner against Bayern, yet he deserves more praise for changing the mood of the game.
The Swede’s latest comments add further fuel to the rumours he is joining AC Milan. Ibrahimovic is a free agent after leaving LA Galaxy, and reports suggest he will return to Milan. The 38-year-old striker spent two seasons at AC Milan from 2010 to 2012, and his suggestion about joining a club which needs to start winning again rings true as the Serie A side are currently 11th in the table – 20 points behind leaders and city rivals Inter.
And I don't think that necessarily means on May 1 we will be. UFC heading to 'private island' Well this is something. UFC President Dana White has said the mixed martial arts promotion is close to securing a "private island" to stage bouts for international fighters during the COVID-19 pandemic. The organisation, which was forced to postpone three events, will resume its calendar with UFC 249 on April 18 and White said he had also found a new venue for that event after the Barclays Center in New York was ruled out.
But the virus has sparked a financial crisis for the DFB, president Fritz Keller told a news conference with 20 invited reporters connected remotely, with 250,000 jobs under threat. At the moment there are few solutions. The only way is to persevere and to get through this safely together," Keller said.
I don’t think it is sustainable but that is my personal view. Every competition organiser has to decide what is best for him. In the short term it can be a solution in order to move on but you cannot imagine a few months of a competition with several matches played behind closed doors. Video - Arsenal after Atleti star.
But the club spent a staggering 300 million euros ($331 million) on replenishing their squad and many of their new arrivals are not stepping up, especially 126-million euro man Joao Felix, who has failed to score for over two months. We're worried but now is the time to dig in and stay united," added midfielder Saul Niguez.
They say they have taken further advice which gives them "the option to take this before a court" due to "significant issues" surrounding the vote. But given the cost of a legal challenge, Thistle believe the money could be put towards ensuring the club stays in business during the coronavirus shutdown. To pursue court action costs money and considerable time - so we have had to consider carefully whether both could be better spent on securing the club's future and protecting the livelihoods of those we employ," a club statement added.
Strevens has since been appointed Spitfires boss and wants a repeat of the heroics of 2015-16 when Eastleigh reached the third round before losing to Bolton, who were then in the Championship. Being at home is important if you are the lesser side," said Strevens before League Two Crewe's visit to the Silverlake Stadium. It evens the tie up. We want to test ourselves against Football League opposition.
Suwon may have lost their opening game of the season with Daejeon at home a bit unlucky to do so having conceded the last goal pretty much at the last attack of the game late into added time in a game which especially the first half they dominate and did take the lead 1-0 but their defense is not that strong at times as they lost 2-1. Their next 3 games however were much better winning 2-0 away at Ansan Greeners but they even could have won 3-0 there or higher.
Odds are very good here on both the home win but also the over 2.5 goals bet and I say this even though the guests are just 2 points behind the 2nd placed club before this round starts while Adana is 9 points away from the 2nd placed club outside the play-off places but do have some interesting foreign players and plus in the second part of last season when they hosted this opponent they won the game with 3-1 in the end.

They think they have figured out a specific turning point. Where most of the specialists – from Platini to Beckham – prefer precision, Ronaldo has focused on the unpredictability of the trajectory of his attempts. However starting in the summer of 2011, with a friendly against Hertha Berlin, he developed a new technique after studying his previous mistakes.

Simeone has already attempted a rebuild - more than one - and so boardroom patience might be wearing thin. They might hesitate in delivering even more expensive signings to the Argentine and may have been a factor in the club’s reluctance to get a January deal done for Edinson Cavani. Contrast this to the way Zidane has methodically overhauled Real Madrid’s squad since the summer, successfully integrating Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, Fede Valverde and Rodrygo.
Rotherham United are on top of League One and have been excellent in the last weeks with a 8-0-1 record in the last 9 league games. At home Rotherham United have scored at least 2 goals in 6 of the last 7 matches.
I think over the two or three-year period in the academy, he grew and changed his whole mentality. He was a flair player, he had to realise that if he was going to play in this position then people were going to kick him. He stood up to the fight and his progression over the past five or six years has been superb. When he was younger he tended not to take a kick too well but he has come on leaps and bounds and is a man now.
He's not there just to look to the stands, lights or scarves. He's living the game and playing it very well. The Portuguese - who has won both games as Spurs boss so far - sought out the ball boy after the goal celebrations to shake his hand and give him a hug. Mourinho told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I tried to invite him into the dressing room after the game to celebrate with the team but he'd slipped away.
What’s more, they’re facing an Arsenal side that haven’t lost at home in the Europa League since February 2018. The Gunners have won their last seven home games in the competition, scoring 19 goals in the process and netting at least twice on six occasions.
Newcastle Jets looked to have turned a corner a few weeks ago when they picked up consecutive wins over Western United and Western Sydney Wanderers but they’ve since lost two in a row and fallen to second bottom as Ernie Merrick looks to turn things around.
Inter Milan have the best away record of any Serie A team this season. Napoli are unbeaten in their last five matches in all competitions, winning four times.

It is the first leg of the new season in Sweden and we will see a clash between Malmo FF and Mjallby. The hosts are favorite but it will be the first match for both sides and I don't think that they will dominate this match and win it with high advantage. The visitors are not the worst team and I think that the game like that is a good opportunity for them to make a surprise and get even one point against Malmo FF. I think it will be balanced match and I pick Asian handicap +1.5 for the visitors
Wycombe have won three of their last six matches in all competitions and Burton lost last time out at home to Lincoln 2-0, with both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals being produced in three of Wycombe’s last six matches and both teams scoring in three of Burton’s last six outings.
The Rams have Rooney at the training camp, but they can’t shake a terrible streak on the road. Derby have lost six of their 10 away trips this season, having failed to win any of their last 10 games on the road in all competitions. In that run, they’ve lost seven times, which Reading should add to.
Ramos, who turns 34 next month, is set to captain Spain at the European Championship and has been playing for Real Madrid at his usual relentless pace, starting 30 games already this season. But Zidane said he is not concerned about the potential knock-on effects of Ramos playing two major international tournaments after another gruelling campaign with Real, who hope to challenge for the Spanish title and the Champions League.
