It is a double leg affair in the Semis of the cup competition and we have two teams from the relegation group here, and Iasi is bottom in that group the main candidate at this stage for relegation because their attack is full of mercenaries who simply cannot score goals, they count a lot on Omoh but his set piece deliveries are very poor and his finishing skills are doubtful. Veteran striker Cristea barely gets a scoring chance lately and when he does the ball refuses to enter the back of the net.

The man pauses, just long enough to be seen, before whisking away along the touchline. Manchester United's new PR consultant Neil Ashton was getting to work. Only hours earlier, Phase I of Pochettino's grand plan was unfurled. A single passage in a one-hour interview on the gloriously-titled In The Pink podcast piqued everyone's interest: "To be honest, I would love to work in the Premier League.
As it stands, the Republic are scheduled to begin their Nations League campaign away to Bulgaria on 3 September with six games in total taking place up until 16 November in a group which also includes Wales and Finland. If it [the play-off semi-final] is the first game [in September], I'll make sure the team is prepared," said Kenny. But the most likely scenario, apparently, is late October or possibly even early November.
He was largely untested as a manager when he was appointed in 2018, but the FA spoke of how his "winning mentality" would take England to the next level, having reached semi-finals in their past two major tournaments. Instead, it could be argued England have gone backwards. The SheBelieves Cup win in 2019 was a high point, and the Lionesses came close to making the World Cup final later that summer, but things have unravelled since.

Chelsea returned to Premier League action by coming from behind to beat relegation-threatened Aston Villa and strengthen their bid for a top-four finish. The Blues dominated the first half but fell behind when Kepa failed to hold Anwar El Ghazi's shot and Kortney Hause was on hand to bundle in. Chelsea fought back after the break and turned the game on its head with two goals in as many minutes. First, substitute Christian Pulisic smashed Cesar Azpilicueta's cross into the roof of the net at the far post before Olivier Giroud drove in from 15 yards with the help of a slight deflection.
Ingolstadt will host 1860 Munchen for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Ingolstadt have advantage at home stadium. Also, Ingolstadt is one of the best teams in this campaign. They are currently on the nd place with 33 points. Hosts are in solid shape. In any case, they will try to make a positive result. Also, we have Munich 1860 who's is very average team in this season. However, the visitors have better results in recent times. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. Of course, Munich have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, my pick - Munchen to win.
Aston Villa are, let's face it, pretty terrible this season. The only reason anybody pays them any attention is to talk up the England chances of Jack Grealish (or indeed to mull over his errant behaviour).

If that's here then I'll be delighted but if it's somewhere else then I'll be the one who decides where, not anyone else.
Xanthi will host Panaitolikos for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the hosts have better team than their opponent. Xanthi is very average in this season. They are currently on the 7th place with 19 points. However, the hosts have fallen in their shape. They have 4 losses in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Panaitolikos who's is worst team in this campaign. Visitors have low potential in attack. They have a very vulnerable defense. Of course, the visitors have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, I think, they have a real chance to break the poor series. They will try to fight for at least one point. My pick - Panaitolikos to win.
