England face rivals Wales in a battle of Britain this week as both nations press pause on their respective World Cup qualification campaigns.While this is billed as an international friendly, that is rarely ever the case when two rivals meet as bragging rights will be at stake.The Three Lions find themselves in a great position to book a place at next summer’s tournament having won all five games in Group K so far, leading second-placed Albania by seven points at the halfway stage.Meanwhile, Wales are currently third in their group but still have to play Belgium and North Macedonia at…

The Gunners face a familiar foe in the French giants, having defeated them 5-3 on aggregate over two thrilling semi-final legs en route to lifting European football’s biggest prize.Barcelona were then felled in the final, and less than five months later, a new title tilt begins at Meadow Park.”We start from scratch,” head coach Renee Slegers said on Monday. “We’re very proud of what we did last year, a lot went into that, but we all start over again.”Everyone is constantly developing, teams change and we’re playing an extremely strong opponent tomorrow. We’re extremely humble but we look forward to…

When Anthony Taylor blew the full-time whistle, Palmer, donning a garish green puffer jacket, leapt from the bench and embraced Estevao, Chelsea’s match-winner and man of the moment. Joao Pedro did the same, lifting Estevao aloft and celebrating with his compatriot, and the teenager then went round each and every member of Maresca’s coaching staff and entourage, basking in the moment, hugging them all, his grin only widening.

The 47 year old admitted he is struggling to comprehend what the future will hold for him, and said it was an emotional time being given the diagnosis recently.He spoke out, saying he is taking one day at a time after being told he has the muscle-wasting condition that killed fellow rugby players Doddie Weir and Rob Burrow.Moody, who was part of the 2003 Rugby World Cup-winning side and lifted multiple English and European titles with Leicester, was told the news two weeks ago and has now gone public.Speaking to the BBC he said: “There’s something about looking the future…

Oscar Piastri’s lead in the race for a maiden Formula One world championship was cut further as he clashed with team-mate Lando Norris at the Singapore Grand Prix.Piastri was left furious as he and Norris banged wheels on the first lap at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, bemoaning an aggressive Norris move and what he deemed an “unfair” decision for McLaren not to take action.The Australian ended up finishing one spot behind Norris in fourth in Singapore, meaning he now leads his rival by 22 points with six rounds of the season remaining, starting at the United States Grand Prix…

Neville went on to identify full-back as a clear problem area for Liverpool in the rather unconvincing early stages of their title defence, with Conor Bradley having been withdrawn at half-time for the second league game in a row, Andy Robertson beaten by Estevao for the winning goal and Jeremie Frimpong yet to make a significant impression following a £29.5m summer switch from Bayer Leverkusen.

Manager Enzo Maresca – sent off for his celebrations following Estevao’s memorable first Chelsea goal – is also without the likes of Liam Delap and Dario Essugo due to long-term issues, though the most notable absentee is of course Palmer, who has become a talismanic figure in west London since his £42.5million transfer from Manchester City in the summer of 2023.

Williams duo Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon were both retrospectively disqualified from qualifying for technical breaches on their cars following checks, having initially sealed 12th and 13th spots respectively.Thankfully for the Australian, Norris was unable to take much advantage of his error, finishing only seventh to move within 25 points of the lead with seven races remaining this term.Reigning four-time world champion Verstappen, meanwhile, is now 69 off the pace in third after winning back-to-back races at Monza and on the streets of Baku, leading to suggestions that he could yet potentially spoil McLaren’s hopes in dramatic fashion.What time is…
