A Guide on How to Keep Up With Real-Time English Top-Flight, WSL and NFL Action Live
The comprehensive rundown to a packed weekend of soccer and NFL action, featuring live blogs, crucial fixtures, and vital information.
Saturday
8am BSTLive Matchday Blog
Kicking off the day's action is our comprehensive hub for the full slate of football fixtures. The presenter will be previewing the four Premier League games, as well as Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership fixtures, and sharing breaking news and fan interaction. Why not get involved.
12pmEverton v Arsenal live
Saturday’s early Women’s Super League fixture features Arsenal touching down to Goodison Park on the back of victories over Liverpool and Twente. The Gunners are fourth in the table, while Everton stand at ninth after they 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. Minute-by-minute updates will be led by our live blog host, with correspondent on the ground.
3pmAfternoon Watch
Our host will be guiding the coverage on two of Saturday afternoon’s highlight games. Chelsea are an erratic lot. The side 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. Meanwhile, Liverpool have hit a rough patch from a dip in results 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 providing reports from both venues.
20:00Top 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. 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 minor setback, although a growing injury list is a worry. Our live blog will be managed by the presenter, with a reporter at the Emirates.
Sunday's Schedule
08:00Weekend Roundup
Our hosts clock on 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 early WSL kick-offs, analysis from Saturday’s games, and a look ahead to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.
2pmClockwatch
Our host manages 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 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
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 turnaround. Brentford have lost their last two league games. Given Leeds' poor historical record in London, the home side might expect to turnaround their slump. A reporter will be at west London.
6pmSunday NFL Live
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 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.
