A Guide on How to Follow Live English Top-Flight, WSL and NFL Games Live
Your ultimate guide to a action-packed weekend of soccer and NFL action, featuring live blogs, key matchups, and vital timings.
Saturday
8am (all times BST)Live Matchday Blog
Starting the day's action is our comprehensive portal for the full slate of football fixtures. Our host will be previewing the four Premier League games, as well as Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership fixtures, and sharing latest updates and fan interaction. Feel free to join the conversation.
12pmLive: Everton vs Arsenal
Saturday’s lunchtime Women’s Super League fixture sees Arsenal heading to Goodison Park on the back of victories over Liverpool and Twente. The Gunners are fourth in the table, while Everton stand at 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 assess their structure early. Our coverage will be led by our live blog host, with correspondent on the ground.
15:00Afternoon Watch
The presenter is in the hotseat the coverage 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 have hit a rough patch from a loss of form 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 providing reports from both grounds.
8pmTop Hosts Bottom
The fixture 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 bounce back from their loss last week. A 3-0 midweek win in Europe suggests that defeat was a minor setback, although a growing injury list is a worry. Our live blog will be staffed by the presenter, with correspondent at the Emirates.
Sunday's Schedule
08:00Matchday live
Our hosts clock on to keep you abreast of 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 exciting European fixtures involving clubs like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. There will be goal updates from the early WSL kick-offs, wash-up from Saturday’s games, and a look ahead to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
2pmClockwatch
Our host manages our live blog with two major games in focus. 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 on the back of a thrilling European fightback and as the league’s top 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.
16:30Brentford v Leeds
The presenter 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 fancy their chances to end their poor run. Our correspondent will be at west London.
18:00NFL clockwatch
The presenter hosts our essential 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 significantly. 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.
