Ways to Keep Up With Live English Top-Flight, WSL and American Football Games With Us
The ultimate guide to a busy weekend of soccer and American football, featuring real-time updates, crucial fixtures, and everything you need information.
Saturday's Schedule
8am BSTMatchday live
Kicking off the weekend's coverage is our go-to live blog for the weekend’s bumper football programme. Our host will be previewing the four Premier League games, alongside Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership matches, while also sharing latest updates and reader feedback. Feel free to join the conversation.
12:00 PMArsenal Travel to Everton
Saturday’s early Women’s Super League fixture sees Arsenal heading to Goodison Park fresh from victories over Liverpool and Twente. Arsenal 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 figure out their structure early. Our coverage will be led by our live blog host, with a reporter on the ground.
3pmClockwatch
The presenter is in the hotseat the focus on two of Saturday afternoon’s highlight games. Chelsea have been inconsistent. They are without a win in their last three Premier League matches as they host an Everton side that is on a roll, having won four of their last five league matches. Meanwhile, Liverpool have hit a rough patch from a dip in results and internal fallout, though 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 grounds.
8pmTop Hosts Bottom
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. Furthermore, 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 worry. Coverage will be managed by our host, with a reporter at the Emirates.
Sunday
8amWeekend Roundup
Our hosts are on duty 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 lunchtime WSL kick-offs, wash-up from Saturday’s games, and a look ahead to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
14:00Afternoon Action
Our host manages our live blog with two major 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 on the back of 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. Reporters will be on site for both matches.
16:30Late Afternoon Kickoff
The presenter is on coverage 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 improved form. Brentford have lost their last two league games. Given Leeds' poor historical record in London, the home side might expect to end their slump. Our correspondent will be reporting from west London.
18:00American Football Watch
Our host 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 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.
