The Weekend Is Here, And When It Is Weekend, It Is Premier League, La Liga And Serie A

SuperSport viewers on DStv and GOtv can look forward to extended action from the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A, with matches scheduled to run from Friday 26 to Monday 29 November 2021.

DStv and GOtv are the only true home of football in Africa, offering a range and depth of action that no other rival can match – it’s literally ‘Unbeatable Football’! If you’re going to spend your money on something, it may as well be on the best football in the world.

The top clash out of England’s top flight for this weekend is the meeting of Chelsea and Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on the evening of Sunday 28 November. While the Blues look every inch a true title contender, the Red Devils have been wildly inconsistent this season and will head to West London needing a big performance to stave off allegations that they are in a state of abject disrepair.

“As a group of players we are going through a tough period,” said United defender Harry Maguire, whose own performances have come in for harsh criticism. “We know and accept this is nowhere near good enough. We feel your [supporters’] frustration and disappointment, we are doing everything we can to put things right and we will put things right. Thanks for your support.”

Sunday will also feature a potential thriller when Manchester City host West Ham United. The Hammers have proved that they can do battle with the top clubs – including a cracking 3-2 win over Liverpool earlier this month – and manager David Moyes will be hoping for another big performance at the Etihad Stadium.

“What the supporters really want to see is a winning team and they’re beginning to see a team that’s winning a lot more now,” said Moyes. “I’m hugely proud [to have turned West Ham around]. The way the players have gone about it, you talk about me turning it around, these players were close to relegation. Now we’re pushing for Europe.”

The round also sees Arsenal open the weekend’s proceedings at home to Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon, while Patrick Vieira’s Crystal Palace will aim to continue their impressive progress when they welcome Aston Villa to Selhurst Park.

Liverpool will back themselves to beat Southampton at home, Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur will have their toughness tested by a rugged Burnley, and Claudio Ranieri will no doubt be given a warm welcome when he brings his Watford team to the King Power Stadium to face his former employers, Leicester City.

SuperSport is also the only place to get English commentary on the legendary La Liga, where the top match for this round is Sevilla visiting Estadio Santiago Bernabeu to face hosts Real Madrid on the evening of Sunday 28 November.

Not only is this a meeting of two of La Liga’s title hopefuls, but it also sees Los Nervionenses manager Julen Lopetegui looking to put one over his former team in Los Blancos, though the tactician has played down this element of the clash.

“It was a long time ago that I had my time at Real Madrid,” said Lopetegui. “I am only focused on bringing out the best of this Sevilla team, which is my job regardless of which opponents we face. It will of course be a difficult match away from home, with many complications because of the quality of Real, but we will look to prevail.”

Barcelona, meanwhile, will look to continue their adaptation to the new leadership of club legend and new manager Xavi when they face Villarreal away from home on Saturday night. The Yellow Submarine is one of the most obstinate teams in Spain under the guidance of Unai Emery, who will be hoping to claim the scalp of the Catalans.
