How to Follow Real-Time English Top-Flight, Women's Super League and NFL Fixtures This Weekend
The comprehensive schedule to a packed weekend of soccer and NFL action, featuring minute-by-minute coverage, highlighted games, and vital information.
Saturday
8am BSTMatchday live
Starting the weekend's coverage is our go-to live blog for the weekend’s bumper football programme. Our host will be looking forward to the day’s four Premier League games, as well as Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership matches, while also sharing latest updates and fan interaction. You are invited to join the conversation.
12:00 PMArsenal Travel to Everton
Saturday’s early Women’s Super League fixture features Arsenal touching down to Goodison Park on the back of victories over Liverpool and Twente. Arsenal are fourth in the table, while Everton stand at ninth after they ended Chelsea’s long unbeaten run last weekend with a 1-0 win. It has been said 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 a reporter at the match.
3pmLive Multi-Match Coverage
Our host will be guiding the coverage on two of Saturday afternoon’s highlight games. Chelsea have been inconsistent. They are without a win in their last three Premier League matches and meet 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 loss of form and internal fallout, despite their midweek European win shows they are not a spent force. They face Brighton, who beat them 3-2 in their last meeting. Reporters will be filing updates from both venues.
20:00Live: Arsenal vs Wolves
A matchup of top versus rock bottom, and the history 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 aiming 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, though a growing injury list is a concern. Coverage will be managed by our host, with correspondent at the Emirates.
Sunday's Schedule
8amSunday Live Blog
The presenters 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 lunchtime WSL kick-offs, wash-up from Saturday’s games, and a look ahead to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
2pmAfternoon Action
The presenter 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 after a thrilling European fightback and as the league’s top scorers. Elsewhere, 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.
16:30Leeds Visit Brentford
Our host is on coverage duty for the late afternoon kickoff where Leeds arrive with confidence after good results against top sides. A tactical switch has been the key 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 slump. Our correspondent will be reporting from west London.
18:00American Football Watch
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 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.
