The Hearts owner added: "Given the uncertainty of the whole situation with which we have been presented, we cannot say how long these measures will be in place. We will, of course, be continuously reviewing the situation. I want to assure everyone that these decisions have not been taken lightly.
It is much more complicated than just making a decision," he said. Each country is different. In England, you have three competitions. In Spain and Italy it is two. There are 18 teams in the German league but all the others have 20. The leagues who have problems in their calendar should look for internal solutions.

I will think they will have a meat grinder for the top places. Since if they lose, they can both end up far below and 2 teams from the bottom support

Chelsea's rather ludicrous record of 15 goals conceded in 2004-05 is long safe and surely unbeatable? Liverpool have the best defensive record this season but have conceded 26. City's team from 2018 has another record that looks secure - their goal difference of +79 is 30 better than this Liverpool side's. And the 4-0 defeat at City last week ensured that Reading's hold of a record stays firm. The Royals collected a record of 106 points in the Championship in 2005-06 - albeit from 46 matches - a record that is now safe.

Baranovichi will against BGU Minsk in match Belarus Second Division. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 3.75 goals due to Baranovichi very strong in every home match. Baranovichi on last 3 home match they can make total score is 14 goals. Meanwhile, BGU Minsk on last 3 match they can make total score is 4 goals. Therefore, I think this match will much score form Baranovichi due to baranovichi very strong in every home match. Moreover Baranovichi only have 1 lose on last 3 match in league. Surely Baranovichi have more chance to beat BGU Minsk with much score.

Matchday number 15 of England Premier League. Team Leicester City will play at home with team Watford. My bet will be here on guests with AH +1. Hosts did 7 wins at last 7 matches played. It is fantastic results. And I think it is time to lost points for them. Their rivals did one win and 2 defeats at last 3 matches played. They takes the last place in the table. Usually weak teams make surprises when you don't expect them. I hope that it will be our match. I recommend to try guests with me for good odds .

They are second in the league with 32 points from 14 games, eight points behind leaders Liverpool. Why would I want to leave Leicester at this time? I'm working with a group of players who have so much potential," Rodgers added.

These two teams played at Antwerp in the league last round so I am surprised that this round they are going to play at Gent the reverse fixture while that game played at Antwerp well 2nd placed Gent conceded 3 goals and despite scoring 2 goals of their own they ended up losing the game with 3-2 in the end so 5 goals scored there and both teams scoring 2+ goals in that one something that could well happen here as well and will take the over 3.5 goals bet in this one at quite decent odds to be taken.
We will resolve these issues between us without external pressure. Ancelotti also insisted that Napoli would recover from a run which has seen them drop to seventh in Serie A table -- far removed from their usual role as the main challengers to Juventus.

He’s always recovered quickly before so let’s hope he does that again. I wouldn’t expect him to be back in the next few weeks and we’ve got a mid-season break. I’m not sure we’re going to see him before then, no.
