Ajax need a win here to secure the top spot. But it won't be easy, because their opponent is Valencia, who still have hope to qualify. But they need victory because the draw won't give them anything because Chelsea plays with Lille and will probably win.
Egypt's Olympic coach Shawky Gharib told Reuters on Wednesday that Salah's participation at the Tokyo Games later this year would depend on the forward and Klopp, but the German boss said he did not have any details to make a decision. We cannot discuss it as we don't know too much yet," Klopp said. We will speak and we will see.

This weekend, the Eagles face a Watford side who have scored fewer goals than any other club in the Premier League since August and despairingly for the Hornets, they hit the net one or fewer times in nine of their last ten matches overall.
Clear and obvious mistakes yes, but his 'opinion' is a gift the game affords the referee only. To try and take it away from him is an outrage. The most the game should ask the referee to do is to look at the incident again to see if his 'opinion' has changed or did he miss something in real time that has now become clear and obvious in the replay. The incident involving Son Heung-min, for example, when he lashed out at Antonio Rudiger is a classic example.
Augsburg had led 2-0 through goals from Florian Niederlechner and Marco Richter. After Julian Brandt pulled one back for Dortmund, Niederlechner scored his second on 55 minutes before Haaland's introduction. Victory in the first game back after the winter break lifts Dortmund to fourth in the Bundesliga, four points behind leaders RB Leipzig, who face Union Berlin later on Saturday. Not a proper hat-trick?!German football expert Raphael Honigstein, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live:Dortmund have been playing without that kind of a striker for a couple of years now.
It arguably cost them two points today. Beginning their season in July, Wolves have already played 29 games and while they showed no signs of fatigue in a pulsating first half, they looked leggy in stages after the restart. They could do with a break. MAN OF THE MATCH - Diogo Jota A clinical performance from Wolves' star man.

GOAL! Sheffield United 1 (McBurnie 54) West Ham United 0 What a disaster for Martin! He tries to play a short goal kick to Balbuena but it goes astray, and Fleck latches onto it to burst into the penalty area. He then squares it to McBurnie, who shoots through Martin to put Sheffield United ahead! 74’ GREAT SAVE! Partial redemption here for Martin, as a diagonal ball from Fleck finds Mousset in the area.
It was guys that had never played in a professional game or were just starting to feel the magnitude of what was about to happen; that we were going to be playing a game that the world was going to be watching. The league opened its 25th season to great fanfare last month welcoming two new franchises in Nashville and Miami, where David Beckham made his long-awaited return to the MLS as an owner.
COMING UP Barcelona are playing Atlético Madrid in the semi-final of the Spanish Supercopa, which for some reason — probably the weather, right? — is being held in Saudi Arabia. Winner plays Real Madrid in the final. Also the Italian season is waking up again after its winter snooze. Torino take on Genoa in the last 16 of the Coppa Italia.
Some teams press aggressively but don't have the ball much and play direct, and other teams have the ball but don't press. We try to do both, which is not easy. We're trying to play our game and the key to it is it looks simple. And if it looks simple it means that it's probably very complicated. Simple or not, Postecoglou's approach has won titles and plaudits in most places he has worked.
Villa were forced to endure some nervous moments, particularly towards the end after substitute Keinan Davis wasted a glorious chance to double the lead after firing wide. Smith reacted to the final whistle by clenching his fist - Villa's fate back in their own hands when they meet West Ham on Sunday. Villa will be safe if they win (presuming Watford do not win by two more goals than they do), or draw providing the Hornets do not win.
Scoring the winner in London, top scorer Timo Werner ended his own five-game goal drought in all competitions. I had not scored in the last few games and I had also missed some chances before the penalty," Werner said. That did not make the penalty any easier but I really wanted to take it and I stayed calm.
It could get even worse for Napoli given their dire points tally. They have picked up 21 points in 16 matches in Serie A this season: their worst points tally at this stage since 2000/01 when they were relegated at the end of the season. So much for their title challenge. Now they need a huge turnaround just to make fourth.
Albion's Jake Livermore and Kyle Edwards forced saves from David Raya after half-time, and 'super-sub' Charlie Austin had a goal ruled out for offside late on, but that was as close as they came to a winner. Despite the result, Bilic's side moved further clear at the summit because of Leeds' defeat at Fulham, with the Bees dropping a place to fifth, also as a consequence of the result at Craven Cottage.
This is a clash between two teams who featured in the play-offs last season and NorthEast United will feel more content with their start to the season having remained unbeaten in their opening four games under new coach Robert Jarni. Mumbai City need to bounce back from consecutive 4-2 defeats which will have rocked their confidence somewhat but they do have belief in their ability to pick up results away from home. Expect Mumbai to dig in and try to be hard to break down and in doing so they might be able to come away with a point from a tight encounter.

Defensa y Justicia will be looking for all three points when they do. The home side come into this game in 17th place with 14 points and whilst title chances have long since evaporated, they are trying to hold out hope for a play-off place, but they are currently 7 points adrift of that objective.
Kilmarnock has failed to score in just 29% of ties at home whilst also keeping a clean sheet in 57% of them. However, scoring isn’t their forte as made evident by their measly 1.14 goals on average, but the flip side is that have only conceded 0.71 goals.
After two seasons of fighting in the second division, Gwangju was finally returned to the highest division in Korea. In many ways, they are not comparable with Pohang Steelers, the rich traditional team of the ginseng country. In terms of confrontation, Pohang Steelers proved to be completely ahead with a series of 15 unbeaten matches against Gwangju in the Korean league since 2011 (won 10).
The results extends the visitors' unbeaten league run to eight games - their longest such streak in 35 years - while Bournemouth drop into the bottom half of the table. Wolves hold on for deserved victoryAfter a slow start to the campaign, Wolves are beginning to demonstrate the type of form that last season earned them a place in Europe for the first time in 39 years.
If Wednesday are unsuccessful, punishments range from a financial penalty to a points deduction, which could be as high as 21. Depending whether Wigan's 12-point penalty is taken from their current total, Wednesday are either eight or 10 points above the relegation zone. They have a better goal difference than Luton, but a worse one than Wigan. However, as with Wigan, either party would have 14 days to appeal against any decision, with a hearing required within 21 days.
League match where Albacete and Mirandés will face each other. The Albacete is a little offensive set, with possession of the ball but throws little to goal. It usually causes few corners. He usually scores and fits goals. It attacks little. Intense. At home he usually scores little and concedes goals. Bad attack. The Mirandés is an offensive set, with little possession of the ball and frequently shoots at the goal. It causes few corners. He usually scores and fits goals. Outside the home he usually scores but is thrashed. Lower your level when you play away from home. Bad visitor who has a bad defense for now.
Bruce was then short odds to become the first Premier League manager to lose his job, but he remains and enhanced his reputation on Tyneside while Emery has gone. So did we underestimate Bruce? And how far could he take the club?How does he compare to Benitez so far? Steve Bruce has promoted homegrown midfielder Matty Longstaff (left) into the team, playing him alongside older brother Sean (right)For some Newcastle supporters, Bruce succeeding Benitez seemed like just another insult during a disappointing summer in which their hopes of hanging on to the Spaniard and talks of a takeover from the Middle East vanished in a matter of weeks.

But then Kaka entered the scene. The best player in the world in 2007, the Brazilian collected a pass and glided past Gabriel Heinze with ease before planting a fine low shot into the far corner. It was a beautiful goal, but nothing on what was to follow as Milan's playmaker made fools of the United defence. He chased a ball down the left wing, headed past Darren Fletcher and then flicked the ball over Heinze's head.

Anfield was calm until Alan Smith glanced home Nigel Winterburn's free-kick shortly after half-time to give the visitors the lead. In a nerve-shredding atmosphere, Liverpool midfielder Steve McMahon famously signalled 'one minute' to his team-mates but that was all Arsenal needed. As the great ITV commentator Brian Moore offered the words "it's up for grabs now", Michael Thomas decided the destiny of the title with a right-foot flick over Bruce Grobbelaar - virtually the last kick of the season.
INTER COACH CONTE WARNS AGAINST COMPLACENCY Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte said his team needed to stay on "the path of work" after they moved top of the Serie A standings with a 2-1 home win over SPAL on Sunday. The result put Inter on 37 points from 14 games, one ahead of Juventus who were held 2-2 by Sassuolo.
If Hungary win their play-offs, they will be in the group, hosting two games. One big boost for the trio is that four of the tournament's six third-placed teams go into the last 16. This is a group of death," said Germany boss Joachim Low. The games in Munich will be football festivals. The expectations will be quite high. For our young team, this will be a huge challenge but also a big motivation.

There’s always going to be that discussion with him. But it’s great to have him back," he said. Two clubs will have new managers in charge for the first time with Mikel Arteta's Arsenal at struggling Bournemouth and Carlo Ancelotti taking the reigns of Everton at home to Burnley. Third-placed Manchester City face a tough trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday.
After three rounds without victory, Crystal Palace will play their next match against West Ham United. Many things will depend from host captain Luka Milivojevic in midfield, but their attackers Benteke, Zaha and Ayew, must improve their efficiency. Guaita will be on the goal line, Kouyate and Tomkins will be central defenders, and if host score a goal, I believe they can win three points. West Ham also have problem with efficiency, and they will mostly rely on counterattacks in this duel. Crystal Palace will control this duel, and with a right tactic they can win in this duel without much problems.
