The ultimate guide to a busy weekend of football and American football, featuring real-time updates, key matchups, and everything you need timings.

Saturday

8am (all times BST)Live Matchday Blog

Starting the day's action is our essential live blog for the weekend’s bumper football fixtures. Our host will be looking forward to the four Premier League games, alongside Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership fixtures, while also sharing latest updates and fan interaction. Why not join the conversation.

12pmArsenal Travel to Everton

Saturday’s early Women’s Super League fixture features Arsenal traveling to Goodison Park fresh from victories over Liverpool and Twente. Arsenal sit fourth in the table, while Everton are in ninth after they halted 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 plan early. Minute-by-minute updates will be led by our live blog host, with correspondent on the ground.

15:00Afternoon Watch

Our host will be guiding the coverage on two of Saturday afternoon’s key games. Chelsea are an erratic lot. 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. In another game, 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 filing updates from both grounds.

20:00Top 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. Coverage will be managed by the presenter, with correspondent at the Emirates.

Sunday's Schedule

8amMatchday 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.

2pmLive Multi-Match Coverage

Our host hosts 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. 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 on site for both matches.

4.30pmBrentford 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 key 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. A reporter 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.
