The leading sports network will showcase its proprietary properties Premiership Saturday and Super Sunday showcasing top class action from the world’s best football leagues.

On Saturday, Liverpool kick off the action against old rivals Everton in the Merseyside Derby with the Reds chasing the top two teams in a close fight with the season ending. Everton were a surprise package last time the two teams met at Ewood Park and Rafael Benitez and his men will be looking to turn it around this time in Anfield.

With Mourinho killing all rumours of his alleged rift with Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich and star striker Andriy Shevchenko finding his feet in England, Chelsea might have what it takes to be the Champions for the third year in running.

Arsenal faces a tricky Middlesbrough on Saturday at the Riverside Stadium; the home team might just spring up the surprise of the week.
