NBC Deportes presents six Liga Premier matches and one game from the Liga MX on TELEMUNDO, NBC UNIVERSO and NBCDeportes.com digital platforms, airing at the following times:
Saturday, April 23
Manchester City vs. Stoke City, 7:30AM/6:30C/4:30P, on NBC UNIVERSO. Man City still has a mathematical chance of reaching first place and will make the most of its home field advantage to wrest as many points as it can away from Stoke City. This weekend’s match at Etihad Stadium is a golden opportunity to watch the league’s top striker, Argentina’s Sergio Agüero, add to his total of 100 goals in the English leagues, a milestone he celebrated recently.
Liverpool vs. Newcastle, 9:45AM/8:45C/6:45P, on NBC UNIVERSO. Four weeks away from the end of the season, Liverpool has markedly improved its game and is one of the contenders for a spot in next season’s European cups. Rafa Benitez face to face with and old team he coached in the past, but him and Newcsatle have to avoid relegation in this season.
Bournemouth vs. Chelsea, 9:55AM/8:55C/6:55P, exclusively on NBC Deportes EN VIVO EXTRA.
Liga MX
Pachuca vs. Guadalajara, 9PM/8C/6P, on NBC UNIVERSO. No longer at risk of losing their spot in league play, the Chivas are finally playing the way their fans would like to see, winning all four of their last games. They’ll try to keep up this winning streak on their visit to Pachuca, which in turn aims to knock América out of second place. This important game will be essential in defining eight teams that will go to the final for the Liga MX title.
Sunday, April 24
The Liga Premier continues
Sunderland vs. Arsenal, 9AM/8C/6P, on TELEMUNDO. Only a few points separate the Gunners from second place, and this visit to the Stadium of Light will be crucial for their chances of moving up or holding on to third place and their ticket to next season’s European cups. But the locals are not prepared to be anyone’s doormat, especially following their 3-0 shutout of Norwich City last week.
Leicester City vs. Swansea, 11:05AM/10:05C/8:05P, on TELEMUNDO. A win would allow the season’s surprise leader, Leicester City, to guarantee second place at least in the tournament. The Foxes are just five points ahead of Tottenham, leaving the first two spots up for grabs. Star forward Jamie Vardy, will not be able to play this game after a red card on last game action. Vardy is tied with Sergio Agüero at 22 goals this season, just two points behind Harry Kane.
Tottenham vs. West Brom, 2:55PM/1:55C/11:55P, on NBC UNIVERSO. Tottenham will know the result of the Leicester City vs. Swansea match going into this home game, which is vital to its ambitions of catching up to Leicester City. For its part, West Brom would be glad to end the season with its first win since Week 29.
