North London Derby Headlines SuperSport’s Premier League Weekend Coverage

The Premier League returns this weekend after the international break with a slate of decisive fixtures, all broadcast live on SuperSport Premier League (DStv Ch. 203, GOtv Ch. 65).

Saturday’s schedule opens at 1:30 p.m. with Burnley hosting Chelsea. Enzo Maresca’s side, currently third in the table, are riding high after a 3-0 victory over Wolves and remain firmly in the chase behind Arsenal and Manchester City.

Burnley, however, have shown resilience at Turf Moor against top opposition, making this a crucial test for Chelsea as they look to close the gap on the leaders.

Later in the afternoon, Liverpool welcome Nottingham Forest at 4:00 p.m. The Reds are under pressure following a 3-0 defeat to Manchester City, part of a troubling run that has seen them lose five of their last six league matches.

Forest, buoyed by their first win in ten games after beating Leeds 3-1, will be eager to exploit Liverpool’s dip in form. Both clubs desperately need points to steady their campaigns.

The day’s action concludes at 6:30 p.m. when Newcastle face Manchester City. Pep Guardiola’s side, sitting second, arrive in buoyant mood after dismantling Liverpool and will aim to keep pace with Arsenal at the summit.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are reeling from consecutive defeats, including a 3-1 loss to Brentford, and must deliver a significant improvement to avoid slipping further down the table.

Sunday begins with Leeds against Aston Villa at 3:00 p.m. Villa have rediscovered their rhythm, storming to a 4-0 win over Bournemouth and collecting five victories in their last six matches.

Leeds, still searching for consistency after their defeat to Forest, face a daunting challenge against a Villa side brimming with confidence.

The weekend’s headline clash arrives at 5:30 p.m. as Arsenal host Tottenham in the North London Derby. Arsenal’s long winning and clean-sheet streak was halted in a 2-2 draw at Sunderland, but Mikel Arteta’s men remain top of the table and will be determined to reassert control in the title race.

Tottenham, under Thomas Frank, have struggled for rhythm with only two wins in their last five matches. Spurs will need discipline and resilience to halt Arsenal’s momentum in a contest that carries major implications for both clubs.

All matches across the weekend will be shown live on SuperSport Premier League via DStv and GOtv.
