Newcastle fans who want to see the club’s latest defeat on Match of the Day will have to stay up late.
United’s 1-0 defeat at Crystal Palace is second to last, at around 11.10pm, and will be raked over by pundits Ian Wright and Danny Murphy.
Elsewhere it was VAR that stole the headlines. Major incidents in Chelsea vs Tottenham, Burnley vs Bournemouth and Leicester City vs Manchester City will be among the talking points, with the controversial technology living up to it’s billing once again.
Unsurprisingly, the opening match of the evening, as revealed by Gary Lineker live on Twitter, is the London derby between Chelsea and Spurs, followed by Manchester City’s trip to Leicester.
Burnley against Bournemouth is next up, perhaps one you wouldn’t expect to be shown so early, but the drama witnessed at Turf Moor is certainly worth keeping tabs on.
The show is rounded off by Southampton vs Aston Villa, Crystal Palace vs Newcastle and Sheffield United vs Brighton.
Match of the Day is live on BBC One at 22:20, with the show then repeated at 07:40 on Sunday morning.
