Setien has been brought to Barca to impose a brand of possession-based play loyal to the ideas of their former player and manager Johan Cruyff but his first two outings have been underwhelming due to the negative tactics of their opponents. The Catalans beat Granada 1-0 last week after their opponents had been reduced to 10 men while they were behind for most of Wednesday's Copa del Rey tie at lowly Ibiza until two late strikes from Antoine Griezmann gave them a 2-1 win.
Hosts are in the situation where collection points is more than important. Even more, that to be on home stadium where Cercle Brugge overall is playing better football. Facing vs Gent, way better and quality opponent should be the challenge that could be used to raise-up the motivational level. Gent are playing quiet often recently, visitors should feel tiredness after playing on each 3-4 days in a row. With their abilities, there is no doubt that Gent is able to produce today vs one of the most struggling opponents overall. But still, the force and the power from the side of the team which need points, could allow us to expect some extra scored goals on this match.

The only element of luck that now exists in the game is if VAR sees something that everyone else misses. Did you know? Antonio produced three key passes and a team-high four crosses from open play against Southampton. Lucas Moura: You can't score a goal like that and not get in my team of the week. We all know Lucas Moura can strike the ball but this really was a beauty. What I adore about Moura is his ability to dance past players.

Getty Images The next step? He has to work out what to do when teams set themselves up to counter his high-intensity style of football by sitting deep and catching his naïve team on the counter.

The suggestion - strongly denied - that Uefa pre-determined its decision because of alleged leaks to the media last year that correctly predicted the referral of the case to the club financial control body's adjudicatory chamber. According to Cas, this argument was "not without merit" when it rejected City's attempt to get Uefa's case thrown out before a verdict was reached last year. Cas also said the leaks were "worrisome".
I've got a feeling for the football club and Eddie is part of the fabric of this football club. Your thoughts on Eddie Howe, via #bbcfootballChris Bennett: Been a Bournemouth fan for 25 years, through League One and Two wilderness years. Eddie Howe is a club legend and we've been very unlucky with injuries. But I wish he wasn't so stubborn with his playing style. Sometimes winning ugly 1-0 is OK. Julie Bell: Howe irreplaceable.
In my opinion, there is enormous quality difference between these two teams, I don't care what the majority of people thinks about LASK Linz, how good team they are, they compete in the Austrian League, which is very weaker than the Premier League. LASK Linz had an easy opponent in the previous round, vs AZ Alkmaar, team that lost from Manchester United 5:0 in the group stage. I expect the team from Manchester, to win this match without any major problems. After all, they won against Manchester city, so I think they can win against LASK Linz also. Good luck.
With 19 wins and a draw they are averaging 2. Europe's top five leagues. Even with a couple of defeats or a few draws they would still would top City's 2018 total.

PSV head to this game, not just with good form but also with a fine run against Groningen. They are unbeaten in 12 matches against Groningen and will be firm favorites here. However, it will not be easy for PSV looking at Groningen’s form at home. With PSV’s form, we expect them to win this but not with a clean sheet. We are backing them for a 2-1 win.
Lokomotiv Pamir was doing well for the first matches, since promotion but they failed in the derby with CSKA at the previous game. They could have tough match with Khatlon, which is making their good series in the season, with most of the games played with the high level of performances.
Don’t say you wouldn’t watch it. In all seriousness, UEFA should get creative. If they want to be spoil sports and restrict it to two teams per match then fine, but at least have a mini four-team tournament to decide the winners. Economic crisis looms Now some difficult news. World players’ union Fifpro have issued a stark warning about the coronavirus impact.
I’ve been at Chelsea since I was a young kid and to extend my contract is a great feeling. When you are that young you don’t think too far ahead, you just play week in, week out and then as you gradually get older you start to realise it is getting closer and closer. There are a few of us playing in Chelsea’s first team now that have all come through the academy at the same time and that is great, it shows how well the academy has brought us through and how well we are doing.
That is absolutely critical. We cannot play a game of football if it jeopardises the health of someone in the general public. I am a firm believer in that and football has to come secondary to that.

We knew we would have to absorb pressure. The disappointment was their goal came from our set piece and that is something we need to address. I think we put them under strain and caused them problems but they have unbelievable players. We need to reflect on the performance and that going forwards will serve us well in the fight. I have seen more positives than negatives today. We have to make things happen and hopefully people have seen encouragement today.

If they win their midweek game in hand then they will double that advantage over second-placed Leeds United. While the other big teams in the second tier can be overly reliant on individual brilliance, West Brom have arguably the strongest unit in the division, hence their position in the table. If one player was to be highlighted for them it would be Brazilian midfielder Matheus Pereira.
But Valverde has been delivering everything Zidane hoped the signing of Pogba would bring, and talk of the Manchester United midfielder coming to the Bernabeu has cooled during the Uruguayan's breakthrough season. We have to believe El Clasico will go ahead - ZidaneTactical conundrums on both sides Zinedine Zidane's Real Madrid are second in the La Liga table on goal difference behind Ernesto Valverde's BarcelonaThe question of exactly where De Jong and Valverde will be deployed is one of several unknowns which make this game tactically the most interesting Clasico for years.

Moreirense is doing well this season, the Team is 5th with 4 points behind Sporting and has been unbeaten for 6 games (3-3-0), with the last 1-4-0 record in away. In this respect, it is quite possible that the points will also be shared here. Moreirense were in good condition before the Corona virus break. I think Boavista will at least draw in this match.
