Had this fixture arrive a month earlier, it would probably be viewed as an unwelcome distraction for Southampton, who not long ago were scrapping right at the foot of the table. However, after a promising few weeks and a fruitful festive period, The Saints are on the up. They'll be feeling confident after beating Spurs on New Year's Day and will thus relish the opportunity to start out on a cup run.
Their best chance fell to defender Gary Cahill, who fired straight at Nick Pope from inside the box. Burnley's win takes them to 45 points and eighth - a league position that could well result in a Europa League place if Manchester City's European ban is upheld. Palace, who also hold out hope of a late surge for a European place, are now 11th in the table, three points worse off than Monday's opponents.

The Scottish football authorities are to share £1. The cash is from Club Licensing and Club Academy Scotland award payments which were due at the end of the year.

Football bosses wait to decide fate of seasonWhen else did Scottish football stop?Hearts ask staff to take 50% pay cut"Given the financial uncertainty faced by clubs, we have looked at areas of distribution where we can accelerate and pay now, rather than wait to pay on the usual distribution dates," said Scottish FA president Rod Petrie.
It has said it has no intention of postponing matches or cancelling the season it began earlier this month. While most of its teams, perhaps with the exception of BATE Borisov and Dinamo Minsk, are unknown to the majority of soccer fans, the league is making the most of stoppages to the world's top competitions.

Players for what happens on the field, we are also the first to acknowledge when we don't play well. Those in charge of sporting direction should also face up to their responsibilities and above all take charge of their own decisions. Lastly, I think that when you talk about players, you should give names because otherwise you are tainting everyone's name and feeding rumours that spread and are not true.
Just a few weeks ago Wolves looked set to make a solid push for the Premier League top four. They headed into a home match against Spurs on the back of an 11 match unbeaten streak in the league, but things have taken a bit of a turn since then.
As two divisions that rely heavily on matchday revenues, that equates to least 73 financially barren days. In the Premier League, billions of pounds in TV income is at stake if there is no resumption in the foreseeable future, and while they can survive with behind-closed-doors matches beamed worldwide, it is bums on seats that lower league clubs need. For relegation-threatened Championship side Luton Town, a club familiar with dire financial troubles having gone into administration three times between 1999 and 2007, the crisis is the worst they have faced.

Sala's body was recovered from the wreckage of the plane in early February, but 59-year-old Ibbotson, from Crowle, North Lincolnshire, has still not been found.
This is another match that will be played without spectators. Here the host has a great advantage. Leverkusen can use this opportunity to get involved in the fight for the first place again if Bayern does not win 3 points away against Borussia Dortmund today. Leverkusen have a series of 11 victories in the last 12 matches, which only shows that they are in great form. They were not disturbed by this break. In 2020, Leverkusen scored at least 2 goals in each match on this field. So I believe this is another of their victories. Wolfsburg is definitely a worse team at the moment
Cas cleared City of "disguising equity funds as sponsorship contributions" and cut the club's fine from 30m euros (£26. I'm] incredibly happy for the decision which shows what all the people said about the club was not true and to defend on the pitch what we won on the pitch," said the Spaniard. Like I said many times, if we did something wrong we would accept the decision of Uefa and Cas because we did something wrong.

Controversially high I fancy. France's favourite Kylian Mbappe has arrived and is getting absolutely mobbed, as you might expect. The guests are arriving It's a glitzy ceremony as usual with a lovely red carpet - with a Fiat hatchback parked in the middle of it.

Ulsan is in first place and in the last match they wants at least 1 point to be the champion. They have 3 points more than Jeonbuk that is in second place and if Ulsa lose and Jeonbuk win, Jeonbuk will be the champion because of goals difference. So Ulsan needs at least a point here and I think this match is more at draw because I predict that also the away team, Pohang, will make a good match because they needs a win to catch the third place. They still have hopes and I think they will play a good match. A draw here for me.
