BBC Match of the Day – MOTD Highlights

Watch the full show Match of the Day, which is a flagship television football show in the United Kingdom that airs on BBC One. It features highlights and analysis of the latest football (soccer) matches from the English Premier League, as well as occasional coverage of other football competitions.

Match of the Day on BBC One Saturday evening

BBC Match of The Day – 23/09/2023


Gary Lineker presents highlights and analysis of the latest round of Premier League games, with Manchester City welcoming Nottingham Forest and Burnley hosting Manchester United. 

Last season, new boys Forest were given a rude awakening to life in the Premier League when they were beaten 6-0 at the Etihad Stadium in August with Erling Haaland scoring a hat-trick. However, Steve Cooper’s side had found their feet in the top flight by the time the reverse fixture came around and they held the champions to a 1-1 draw. 

Burnley have beaten Manchester United just twice since 1968, but both were memorable occasions. In 2009 Robbie Blake’s brilliant volley gave them a 1-0 victory; then, in 2020, goals from Chris Wood and Jay Rodriquez helped the Clarets claim three points at Old Trafford for the first time for 58 years. 

Other games include Brentford versus Everton and a London derby between Crystal Palace and Fulham.

BBC Match of The Day 2 – 24/09/2023

Mark Chapman introduces extended highlights of the day’s four Premier League matches, headlined by the north London derby between Arsenal and rivals Tottenham.

Spurs’ sole league victory at the Emirates Stadium came back in 2010 and they were soundly beaten again there last season. However, new manager Ange Postecoglu has instilled a fresh optimism around the club. Despite now being without Harry Kane – the all-time top scorer in this fixture – they will make the short trip down the Seven Sisters Road with renewed belief that they can pick up a rare and precious win.

Elsewhere, Liverpool welcome West Ham to Anfield, there is a south coast battle between Brighton and Bournemouth at the Amex Stadium, while Newcastle travel to take on Sheffield United and Chelsea host Aston Villa.
