Gary Lineker presents highlights from the day's matches in the Premier League.
Reigning champions Manchester United will aim to do the double over Everton for the third time in four years when they visit Goodison Park. Sunderland inflicted a surprise defeat on Arsenal when the sides met at the Stadium of Light in November 2009, so Arsene Wenger's team will look for revenge. Wolves fans will be nervous ahead of their match with Chelsea, given that the Blues have scored 14 goals in the teams' previous three meetings, including a 5-0 victory on their previous visit to Molineux. Tony Pulis takes his Stoke side to face his old club Portsmouth, while relegation rivals West Ham and Hull meet at Upton Park.
Alan Hansen and Mark Lawrenson are in the studio to analyse the play.

Gary Lineker introduces goals and highlights from Saturday's Premier League fixtures.
Former Italy team-mates Carlo Ancelotti and Roberto Mancini have faced each other other as managers in the Milan derby, and here they met for the first time as Premier League bosses, with Ancelotti's Chelsea hosting Mancini's Manchester City.
Arsenal travelled to Stoke, having lost at the Britannia Stadium both in this league fixture last season and in the FA Cup in January. Portsmouth's win over Burnley in December was their first under Avram Grant - could they do the double at Turf Moor?
Birmingham v Wigan promised plenty of goals, as the Blues won this fixture 3-2 last season and also prevailed by the same scoreline at the DW Stadium earlier in this campaign. Wolves were at Bolton in the day's other top flight game.
2009x29 March 6th, 2010
06 March, 2010 10:30 pm
Arsenal host Burnley while Manchester United's are at Wolves.
Wolves lost 3-0 to United in the reverse fixture before Christmas, with manager Mick McCarthy criticised for fielding an under-strength team. With home advantage, McCarthy will plot a repeat of the shock win by Wolves when they last hosted then-league leaders United in the Premier League in 2004.
Burnley make their first visit to Arsenal in the top flight since 1975. The sides drew 1-1 at Turf Moor earlier in the season, but Burnley's away form has been as wretched as Arsenal's home form has been excellent. The Gunners are hopeful that a relatively easy run-in will keep them in the hunt for the league title, and winning fixtures like this one are essential if they are to challenge for silverware.

Gary Lineker presents highlights from the day's Premier League matches, including the local derbies between Arsenal and West Ham, Aston Villa and Wolves and Burnley and Wigan.
Arsenal and West Ham share the need for all three points at the Emirates Stadium, though for different reasons. The Gunners retain ambitions of regaining the Premier League title they last won in 2004, while the Hammers are fighting against relegation.
In the Midlands, Villa continue their pursuit of European qualification against a Wolves side desperate to avoid an immediate return to the Championship. Burnley face a similar fate, but with their dismal away record would probably be content with a point at fellow strugglers Wigan.
2009x32 March 27th, 2010
27 March, 2010 10:30 pm
Gary Lineker presents the best of the action and reaction from the day's seven Premier League matches, with the three title contenders all involved.
Chelsea host an Aston Villa side with aspirations of securing a third successive top-six finish and a place in European competition. Villa have already beaten Chelsea once this season, overturning Didier Drogba's early strike at Villa Park with goals from defenders Richard Dunne and James Collins, but it is eight years since they last triumphed at Stamford Bridge.
Arsenal also face West Midlands opposition in the shape of Birmingham. Arsene Wenger's Gunners have only lost once in their previous 16 games in this fixture and can ill-afford a slip-up as they strive for their first silverware in five years. However, their hosts have exceeded expectations in their first season back in the top flight and could prove obdurate opponents.
In the late kick-off, defending champions Manchester United are in action at neighbours Bolton, where they h

Gary Lineker introduces highlights from all of the day's matches in the Barclays Premier League, which include a huge clash between title rivals Manchester United and Chelsea. Arsenal are aiming to do the double over Wolves, having thumped them 4-1 at Molineux. Birmingham held Liverpool at Anfield in November and are looking to at least match that at St Andrew's. Burnley and Manchester City meet at Turf Moor, having shared the spoils in a six-goal thriller earlier in the season.
Bolton host Aston Villa, no doubt hoping Martin O'Neill's side will have one eye on next week's FA Cup semi-finals. Portsmouth are also in the last four of the FA Cup but with every point crucial in their battle to avoid relegation, they cannot afford to slip up at home to Blackburn. In the day's other games, Hull visit Stoke and Tottenham are at Sunderland.
2009x34 April 10th, 2010
10 April, 2010 10:30 pm
Gary Lineker presents the best of the action and reaction from the day's Premier League matches.
Hull host Burnley at the KC Stadium with both teams battling for their Premier League existence. Both clubs have changed managers since Burnley beat Hull 2-0 back in October, veteran Graham Alexander scoring both goals. But the Clarets' away form has been consistently poor all season, and they haven't managed a win at Hull since 1994.
Also struggling at the wrong end of the table are West Ham United, who host Sunderland. Both sides have endured difficult starts to 2010 and are in desperate need of points. A repeat of the reverse fixture would certainly be welcomed by neutrals - the teams shared four goals and each had a man sent off in an absorbing encounter.

Adrian Chiles presents highlights of the four Premier League games, plus a review of Saturday's action.
The battle for fourth place and qualification for next season's Champions League continues with both Liverpool and Manchester City in action. Liverpool host Fulham, who shocked the Anfield club back in October with a 3-1 victory in a game that also saw the Reds reduced to nine men.
Expectations at Manchester City were high back in August, but opponents Birmingham have arguably been the season's biggest success story. Nevertheless, the Manchester club remain in the mix for a fourth-place finish, and will be confident of preserving an unbeaten home record against the Blues that dates back to 1998.
Blackburn host champions Manchester United at Ewood Park. Sir Alex Ferguson's side have won the last four meetings between the sides, and haven't lost away at their North West rivals since 2006. The day's other game sees relegation-threatened Wolves host Stoke at Molineux.
2009x36 April 17th, 2010
17 April, 2010 10:30 pm
Gary Lineker presents highlights of all the day's Premier League matches, including the Manchester derby at the City of Manchester Stadium. United beat City 4-3 earlier this season, thanks to an injury-time winner from Michael Owen. Can City gain revenge and boost their Champions League hopes at the same time?
There's a London derby to savour at White Hart Lane, where Tottenham will hope to derail Chelsea's title challenge. And at the other end of the table, Iain Dowie's relegation-threatened Hull cannot afford to lose at Birmingham.

Gary Lineker presents highlights of all the day's Premier League matches. Manchester United hosted Tottenham who had not won at Old Trafford in 21 years. Arsenal were also in action against a Manchester City side chasing their third league victory against the Gunners in their last four contests.
Elsewhere, Sunderland will be looking for a sixth consecutive victory over Hull, Bolton host Portsmouth, Wigan are at West Ham and Wolves take on Blackburn.

Fratton Park will host its last Premier League fixture for at least a year when relegated Portsmouth take on Wolves.
Birmingham City will be looking for a first home win over Burnley in 10 years, while Stoke haven't beaten Everton at home since 1982.
2009x39 May 9th, 2010
09 May, 2010 10:30 pm
Gary Lineker presents the best of the action and reaction from the final day of the Premier League season. All 20 teams played today as the remaining issues at either end of the table were finally decided.
Defending champions Manchester United hosted Stoke at Old Trafford, Arsenal met Fulham in a London derby, and Chelsea's pursuit of a first league title since 2006 concluded at home to a Wigan side that beat the Blues in the reverse fixture.
Burnley's debut season in the Premier League ended with the visit of a Tottenham side that has spent the season striving for a top-four finish. Manchester City also set out this season to earn Champions League qualification and finished their campaign at West Ham, who have endured a difficult time on and off the pitch.
Meanwhile, Liverpool were hoping to finish strongly against lowly Hull.
2009x40 MOTD Live - Slovenia v England
23 June, 2010 10:30 pm
Gary Lineker is joined by Alan Hansen, Alan Shearer and Lee Dixon for coverage of England's final group match as they take on Slovenia in Port Elizabeth. Slovenia is a nation of only two million people but they will not be underestimated by Fabio Capello's England, who were fortunate to beat them 2-1 at Wembley in a friendly in September 2009. The Slovenians vowed revenge after that game for the generous award of a penalty when Wayne Rooney was adjudged to have been fouled. With qualification for either side possibly resting on this game, tensions could run high.
Commentary comes from Guy Mowbray and Mark Lawrenson.
