Your ultimate guide to a busy weekend of football and American football, featuring real-time updates, crucial fixtures, and all the essential details.

Saturday

8am BSTWeekend Football Portal

Kicking off the weekend's coverage is our comprehensive live blog for the weekend’s bumper football programme. The presenter will be previewing the day’s four Premier League games, alongside Championship, EFL and Scottish Premiership matches, and sharing latest updates and fan interaction. You are invited to join the conversation.

12:00 PMLive: Everton vs Arsenal

Saturday’s lunchtime Women’s Super League fixture features Arsenal heading to Goodison Park on the back of victories over Liverpool and Twente. Arsenal sit fourth in the table, while Everton are in 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 plan early. Our coverage will be helmed by the presenter, with a reporter at the match.

3pmAfternoon Watch

Our host will be guiding the focus on two of Saturday afternoon’s highlight games. Chelsea have been inconsistent. 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. In another game, Liverpool are wobbling from a loss of form and off-field issues, though 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 providing reports from both venues.

20:00Top 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 bounce back from 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. Our live blog will be staffed by our host, with correspondent at the Emirates.

Sunday

08:00Matchday 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 preview to Monday night’s Premier League meeting.

2pmLive Multi-Match Coverage

The presenter 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. 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 formation change 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 poor run. A reporter will be at west London.

6pmNFL clockwatch

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.
