The club said it co-operated "in the face of a shifting and still unparticularised case involving allegations of fraud and conspiracy" and the reason Uefa knew about the disputed transactions is because the club cooperated and "explained those transactions in great detail". The club added it was not required to comply with every demand made of them, just those "proper" and "reasonable" requests that were "relevant" to decision-making.
The EFL said that "despite making significant progress, the SAG is not satisfied all its requirements have been met and have maintained the capacity of the stadium at zero". The league claims that decision led the club to inform it that they would not be in a position to fulfil the fixture with supporters in attendance. However, in a separate statement, Macclesfield claimed that they had "never asked the EFL to play the game behind closed doors" and "as far as we are concerned" expect the game to be played as scheduled.

Unlike City, they managed to score. Twice. In this they were aided by a slightly experimental line-up from Jose Mourinho, who we can assume won’t be doing anything quite so daring ever again, and a wobbly performance from Jan Vertonghen, who was taken off before the hour was up. Once on the bench, he sat gazing into the distance like a man that’s just had 32 years of running and kicking catch up with him all at once.

Supporters like Vladimir, who came to the stadium, had few concerns. Am I worried or not worried? I guess most likely not," he said. Because first of all there are not many people coming to watch football, there are no crowds. And all measures are taken at the stadium. But others are not so sanguine.

Lazio fans present at the stadium today, shame on you," he wrote on Instagram, adding the hashtag #saynotoracism although it was not clear whether he was claiming the insults were of a racist nature.

Although he wants to play in Europe's elite competition, it is not thought to be a deal-breaker for any move. Havertz considers a club's long-term plan just as important. Chelsea, who host Norwich on Tuesday, are third in the Premier League but lead fourth-placed Leicester and fifth-placed Manchester United by one point. Only the top four will qualify for the Champions League next season after Manchester City's European ban was lifted on Monday.

Lennon's men are yet to play a game at home without scoring at least twice, while they've now kept four clean sheets on the bounce at Celtic Park.

As former academy team-mate Jadon Sancho prospered after leaving for Borussia Dortmund, it appeared Foden was being left behind. But, rather than quitting, or leaving on loan as many suggested, Foden stayed right where he was. Guardiola said: "What we have done with him is try to protect him so that he doesn't play every game. In this period you have to be careful in the first steps. He has an incredible thing that makes me have no doubt he can be an incredible player for the next 10 years.

Watford's resurgence under Nigel Pearson and Aston Villa's recent victories has made the bottom of the table a hectic place. As Moyes aims to preserve West Ham's top-flight status for a second time, he will be disappointed with how his side ended a game they looked destined to win. Despite a fine debut from Tomas Soucek alongside Snodgrass and Michail Antonio in midfield, West Ham's defensive frailties in the final 15 minutes proved to be their downfall.
Another tough matchup and small league derby where two title contender should play close game.

Much credit goes to Southampton, of course, who arrived with a plan — break quickly and in numbers — and executed it perfectly. But Chelsea’s shiny new three-at-the-back formation, which worked so well to stifle Spurs, looked simultaneously toothless and vulnerable here.
Valencia are clearly the team in form and rate as the most likely winners though, so we're also going for a 0-1 correct score prediction as Los Che look to bridge the gap between themselves and the top four.
So I think it is sensible at this stage to have the engagement, to think through it, but I've been clear in all the conversations I've had that all of this is without prejudice so let's do the work and then we will make the decision at the appropriate point - clearly, number one, in accordance with the scientific evidence.

There were a few (injuries) overlapping from last year, which were huge: N'Golo Kante, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Antonio Rudiger.
Real Madrid have the superior run here and we don’t expect Valladolid to stop them, especially when we look at their head to head records. Real Madrid have not lost to Valladolid in the last 10 matches and in eight of those, they have scored two goals or more. Valladolid head to this game winless in their last five and without a win in eight La Liga matches. Valladolid have conceded two or more goals in five of their last 10 matches and they are among the least scorers in the league. They face a side with the second-best attack in the league and the best defence. We will go with a 2-0 win for Real Madrid here.
At club level, the European Club Association (ECA) has often spoken of reducing the size of first divisions which include up to 20 teams in several larger countries. Axing domestic cups may be an attractive proposition in countries such as Italy, where the Coppa Italia is actively designed to avoid upsets, but less so in other countries where they are still seen as a chance for giant-killing.
If being in more immediate danger is not incentive enough for Antalyaspor to win this game, perhaps they will be motivated by revenge. They suffered their biggest defeat of the campaign in the reverse fixture when Genclerbirligi showed up to their patch and won 6-0. That's the definition of being a bad guest.
Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster is Critchley's main concern after picking up an ankle injury in training. He's got a knock so he's doubtful," confirmed Critchley. We're assessing him [on Monday]; fingers crossed he makes it. We'll see. Aston Villa boss Dean Smith is waiting on the fitness of midfielder Conor Hourihane.

Belshina returned to the top level, after winning league below with almost all victory games, and confidently went into the top tier again. However, they hard tough schedule, and did not make success in the first two round. They have scored some goals, but it was not enough for getting through for three points.
Home team will surely win in this duel from Belorusian Cup and that is pretty real to expect something like that. In any case, BATE Borisov is the best team from this country and they are favorites in every duel, that is clear. In the same time, they are in series of even four wins in a row, while rivals team who is lost last few matches in a row. So, I believe that BATE will not just win in this duel - they will do it more than easy and I believe in their win with at least two goals difference.

The last 2 matches played between these teams have been more focused on the defending more than the attacking side of things. They both apply the same tactics when playing each other twice and will probably attempt this again. The away team have played in a couple of low scoring matches of their own recently so at times have shown they like to work on holding teams as well as they can. Both sides have been under on the amount of balls they get into the box which could mean another low scoring match up for these team this weekend
We have got a bit of fire in us at the moment and I think we will win. I like Moyes and I think he will steady the ship, which is what we need right now. I would love to see someone such as Joe Cole, a younger ex-player, come in as a coach and start sort of looking to the future but, for the time being, it seems like players like playing for Moyes, and that is the main thing. Newcastle v Chelsea (17:30 GMT)Chelsea swatted Burnley aside pretty easily last time out and this is a good opportunity for them to build on that.
I first started to coach at 22 by coincidence when the youth club at a team I was playing at needed a coach for a match," Trpisovsky told Reuters as he prepared for Slavia's final Champions League group match of the season at Dortmund on Tuesday.

Watched Sandhausen come from behind against Bochum in their last away game in the league in a thrilling game of football which had 8 goals scored as it ended 4-4 in the end, defensively quite bad they have conceded 34 goals this season but did score 30 themselves, and Are themselves despite having 6 points more than Sandhausen has scored and conceded 30+ goals this season, but a bit more efficient in terms of taking the points away.
Battle to avoid the drop Hull City dropped to the bottom after Saturday's home defeat by LutonIf the promotion and play-off races are tight, then the relegation battle is even more dramatic. Of course, much depends on Wigan's appeal against a 12-point deduction for going into administration. That sanction will be applied after their game at the DW Stadium, so they go into their home match against Fulham unofficially occupying the final relegation place.
Despite beating Real Madrid on the last day of the season, Setien was sacked by Betis with a year left on his contract.

Tottenham have quality in their ranks but are extremely prone to defensive lapses of late that lead us to believe they will concede again in the FA Cup this week. The initial confidence injected by Mourinho's appointment cannot be found on the pitch. We expect both teams to score in a game that is up for grabs.
