The Premier League's intense fight for survival takes centre stage this Saturday afternoon, with all three clubs currently occupying the relegation zone set for crucial 3pm kick-offs.
High-Stakes Clashes at the Bottom
Wolverhampton Wanderers, still searching for their first victory of the campaign, face a pivotal home match against West Ham United. The Hammers arrive at Molineux sitting just four points above the dotted line, making this a six-pointer with massive implications for both sides.
Meanwhile, Burnley, who find themselves a daunting six points from safety, have a tough assignment away at the Amex Stadium. They take on a Brighton & Hove Albion side that will be keen to end their own winless run, which now stretches to six matches.
Football Beyond the Premier League
While there is no EFL action scheduled for today, with a full programme set for Sunday, the football focus extends across the United Kingdom and beyond. In Scotland, the latest chapter of the Old Firm rivalry between Celtic and Rangers was written earlier in the day.
Internationally, the knockout phase of the Africa Cup of Nations begins this afternoon. The last 16 gets underway with a 4pm GMT clash between defending champions Senegal and Sudan. Our coverage will also provide updates from major league fixtures taking place across Europe throughout the day.
