Nottingham Forest v Everton, Brighton v Leicester and more: clockwatch
Show key events only Please turn on JavaScript to use this feature Show key events only Please turn on JavaScript to use this feature There have been goals galore at the Etihad this afternoon and Barry Glendenning is your man for that game's final knockings. Manchester City v Crystal Palace: Premier League – live Share Leeds and Sheffield United are both winning in the Championship early kickoffs – but only by slender margins. Still a good 15 minutes plus added time remaining at Elland Road and Home Park, with Plymouth – 1-0 down to the Blades – in need of some inspiration to kickstart their fading survival hopes. Share Brighton v Leicester Brighton: Verbruggen; Hinshelwood, Dunk, O'Riley, Estupiñán; Ayari, Baleba; Minteh, Adingra, Pedro; Welbeck. Leicester: Hermansen; Justin, Coady, Okoli, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumaré, McAteer; El Khannous, Mavididi, Vardy. Nottingham Forest v Everton Nottingham Forest: Sels; Williams, Milenkovic, Murillo, Moreno; Domínguez, Anderson, Gibbs-White; Silva, Hudson-Odoi, Wood. Everton: Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner, Doucouré; Harrison, Ndiaye, Broja. Southampton v Aston Villa Southampton: Ramsdale; Harwood-Bellis, Bednarek, Stephens; Walker-Peters, Ugochukwu, Fernandes, Manning; Sulemana, Archer, Onuachu. Aston Villa: Martínez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Maatsen; Onana, Tielemans; Rogers, Ramsey, Asensio; Rashford. Share Although the Premier League is fizzling out somewhat – save for the semi-interesting top five tussle for Champions League qualification – the rest of the English pyramid is far from done and dusted. So while Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa will try to boost their European hopes this afternoon, the real juice is to be found elsewhere. Take the Championship for instance, where there's everything to play for and everything to lose in the fight for automatic promotion, the playoffs and survival. Of particular interest today are Cardiff v Stoke and Portsmouth v Derby at the bottom, while Leeds and Sheffield United are currently in action, having kicked off at 12.30pm. League One and Two are equally unpredictable, while there's still (just about) a Bundesliga title race on, with Bayer Leverkusen looking to cut the gap to leaders Bayern Munich to just three points – before the Bavarians face Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker from 5.30pm. Plenty to get our teeth into, so why not drop me an email to chat our Saturday afternoons away? Let's go. Share
