Sam Ackerman and Blake Stothart host the pre-game coverage from 3pm, looking into the stats and odds of the matchup, before Ackerman is joined by Blake Ayshford for expert analysis and Anthony Gelling for sideline comments with kick-off set for 4pm.
The English Premier League continues, with commentary provided by our UK partners talkSPORT, with five matches across Matchweek 2 including Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest.
