A Guide on How to Keep Up With Real-Time Premier League, Women's Super League and NFL Fixtures With Us
The comprehensive schedule to a busy weekend of football and American football, featuring minute-by-minute coverage, key matchups, and all the essential details.
Saturday
8am BSTLive Matchday Blog
Starting the day's coverage is our essential portal for the weekend’s bumper football programme. Our host will be previewing the day’s four Premier League games, as well as Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership matches, and sharing latest updates and reader feedback. You are invited to get involved.
12:00 PMArsenal Travel to Everton
Saturday’s early Women’s Super League fixture sees Arsenal touching down to Goodison Park fresh from victories over Liverpool and Twente. Arsenal sit fourth in the table, while Everton stand at ninth but 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. Minute-by-minute updates will be led by our live blog host, with correspondent at the match.
15:00Afternoon Watch
The presenter is in the hotseat 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 as they host 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, though their midweek European 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 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 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, though a growing injury list is a worry. Coverage will be managed by our host, with a reporter at the Emirates.
Sunday
8amSunday Live Blog
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 lunchtime WSL kick-offs, analysis from Saturday’s games, and a look ahead to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
14:00Live Multi-Match Coverage
The presenter hosts our live blog with two key 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 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. Reporters will be in position for both matches.
4.30pmLate Afternoon Kickoff
Our host is on liveblog 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 improved form. 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 reporting from west London.
18:00NFL clockwatch
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.
