The complete schedule to a busy weekend of football and NFL action, featuring minute-by-minute coverage, crucial fixtures, and everything you need information.
Kicking off the weekend's coverage is our comprehensive live blog for the weekend’s bumper football fixtures. The presenter will be looking forward to the four Premier League games, as well as Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership fixtures, while also sharing breaking news and reader feedback. You are invited to send in your thoughts.
Saturday’s lunchtime Women’s Super League fixture sees Arsenal traveling to Goodison Park fresh from victories over Liverpool and Twente. The Gunners are fourth in the table, while Everton are in ninth but halted Chelsea’s long unbeaten run last weekend with a 1-0 win. A preview noted that Everton are “a very unpredictable team” who “can do different things,” requiring opponents to figure out their plan early. Minute-by-minute updates will be led by the presenter, with a reporter on the ground.
The presenter will be guiding the focus on two of Saturday afternoon’s highlight games. Chelsea are an erratic lot. They are without a win in their last three Premier League matches and meet an Everton side who are on a roll, having won four of their last five league matches. In another game, Liverpool are wobbling from a dip in results and off-field issues, despite their Champions League win shows they are far from a spent force. They face Brighton, who beat them 3-2 in their last meeting. Correspondents will be filing updates from both venues.
A matchup of top versus rock bottom, and the signs are not good for Wolves. Arsenal have won their last eight Premier League games against them. Adding to that, Wolves remain winless in all 15 Premier League games this season. Arsenal are looking to win five consecutive home Premier League matches and shrug off their loss last week. A 3-0 midweek win in Europe suggests that defeat was a blip, though a growing injury list is a concern. Our live blog will be staffed by the presenter, with a reporter at the Emirates.
Our hosts are on duty to keep you updated on all Sunday’s football action. This includes five games in the WSL, the same number in the Premier League, the Scottish League Cup final, and key European fixtures involving clubs like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. There will be goal updates from the lunchtime WSL kick-offs, wash-up from Saturday’s games, and a preview to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
The presenter hosts our live blog with two key games front and centre. Crystal Palace confront Manchester City for the first time since Palace’s cup final win, though their home league record against City is poor. City arrive after a thrilling European fightback and as the league’s leading scorers. In the other game, Tottenham travel to a struggling Nottingham Forest. Spurs' away record is strong, with only one team having won more away games this season. Correspondents will be in position for both matches.
Our host is on liveblog duty for the late afternoon kickoff where Leeds arrive with confidence after good results against top sides. A formation change has been the catalyst for their turnaround. Brentford have lost their last two league games. Given Leeds' poor historical record in London, the home side might expect to end their poor run. Our correspondent will be reporting from west London.
Our host hosts our key companion to Sunday’s NFL programme. The New England Patriots can win their first division title this decade by defeating the Buffalo Bills. The Patriots are on an 11-game winning streak. Buffalo has won the past five division crowns, but New England has improved markedly. In another crucial game, the Kansas City Chiefs, with their long playoff streak in jeopardy, host the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chiefs are outside the playoff picture and face elimination if they lose and other results go against them. The Chargers are currently in a playoff position.
