Barnsley put in a performance that belied their place at the foot of the table, but that will be of little comfort after a fourth game without a win left them four points from safety. They could now be relegated to League One even if they win their final two games. On a day which started with a minute's silence for legendary Leeds and England defender Jack Charlton, who died at the age of 85 last week, it was perhaps fitting that the hosts ground out a vital 1-0 win.
Dortmund's Mario Goetze made the most of a rare start by putting the visitors ahead in the 17th minute, while Hoffenheim hit the bar from a free kick with their only real chance. However, Dortmund failed to add another goal despite being in complete control of the game and they were punished for it. The hosts leveled when substitute Adamyan stabbed the ball home after goalkeeper Roman Buerki failed to clear in the 79th and Kramaric grabbed the winner three minutes from time.
Stoke City boss Michael O'Neill told BBC Radio Stoke: "People have always known there is quality in the squad. What we have to do is build the right atmosphere for that quality to flourish. We have to start well next season. We haven't started well in either season in the Championship, so that we are playing on the front foot. This was the first game we have had since I've come in where we can play in somewhat of a more relaxed fashion.
Voluntari has just one win this season so no wonder they are bottom of the league table and will enter the relegation group as big favorites for the drop and they will be very lucky that after the normal season in that group the total points won by all the teams will be turned to just half as their chances will be better to avoid relegation, but they have a really poor record against Gaz Metan Medias losing with ease 3-0 at home earlier this season.
Cardiff U23 and Colchester U23 will face each other in the upcoming match in the Professional Development League. Cardiff U23 this season have the following results: 5W, 3D and 7L. Meanwhile Colchester U23 have 4W, 2D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
well this seems to be like a great bet cause Exeter is fantastic team to bet when they are playing at home and also they are undefeated on last 8 games both home and away and on the other side Cambridge losted 4 from last 5 and there is not a lot of hope for them to win any points from this game and also I don't think they could score a goal at all, but it is very possible they will conceded at least 2 or maybe even 3, so with this bet I want to secure myself from 1-0 or 2-1 win for Exeter

The former Sporting Lisbon man was full of life in his 64 minutes on the pitch, linking well with Paul Pogba, but showing his defensive capabilities too with three tackles, gaining possession back twice. Fernandes could have played 10 minutes and I would have given him man of the match," former England international Karen Carney said on BBC Radio 5 Live. He is just so exquisite and it has been a privilege to watch him play.

League Cup winners in 1986, Oxford fell out of the Football League 20 years later, but have since climbed back to the third tier. As Oxford stand just outside the League One play-off places, Robinson talks animatedly about a mission to re-connect a club to a city with a passion for football that might surprise many outsiders. I don't think anyone in Oxfordshire would have believed where we are now.
The champions have continued to battle on multiple fronts this season, but they’ve had a noticeable shift up front. They have seen others step up in place of Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a disappointing campaign. However, the Portuguese has had a great December with four goals in three games, seemingly spurred on by his Ballon d’Or loss.
Looking at recent form, Rizespor will be the favorites in this clash, and they need to get something from it, to be sure of survival. Fenerbahce have nothing much to play for here and though they will be at home, we don’t expect a dominant display from them. The hosts have not been the best performers in the first half for most of their last 17 matches and with nothing much to gain here, we don’t see them getting motivated for a fast start. On the other hand, there is a prize for Rizespor from this game and we will expect them to be lively from the start; they have not trailed at half time in their last four games and we expect the same here. The only issue for Rizespor though is that they are not the best to bank on when playing away, and that, placed against Fenerbahce’s home form, a good pick would be for this to end in a Half time/Full time draw.

So far, fans have been split on how to treat this "ghost games" era. While the television ratings indicate that many are happy to watch football even without stadium atmosphere, active fan groups have been very vocal about their disdain for the decision to continue. Banners criticising the "greed" of the Bundesliga's power brokers have been seen across the country. Clubs asked supporter groups to send them their banners and flags before home games, and most clubs even put the ones with critical messages inside the stadiums to give their fans a platform.
