Episode 27: MOTD2 - 21st June 2020
Gabby Logan presents highlights of the day's three Premier League fixtures, which were Everton v Liverpool at Goodison Park, Aston Villa v Chelsea at Villa Park and Newcastle United v Sheffield United at St James' Park. Jurgen Klopp's Reds were looking to record their third consecutive victory in all competitions against their bitter rivals, and the omens looked good with the Toffees' last triumph coming way back in October 2010. Villa had a similarly poor recent record against Chelsea, having lost their previous five meetings, while the Blades hadn't beaten the Magpies since November 2006.
Episode 26: MOTD2 - 8th March 2020
Mark Chapman presents highlights of today’s two fixtures from the Premier League, which includes the Manchester derby as United host Pep Guardiola’s City at Old Trafford. This will be the fourth meeting between Manchester United and Manchester City this season, with all three previous encounters being won by the away side, including United’s 2-1 win in December’s reverse league fixture. The clubs also met in the League Cup, with City emerging 3-2 aggregate winners over the two ties. The day’s other fixture saw Carlo Ancelotti take his Everton side to former club Chelsea. The Italian boss won the Premier League and FA Cup double with Chelsea in 2009-10. There will also be a round-up of the goals from the seven Premier League games to have already taken place this weekend.
Episode 25: MOTD2 - 1st March 2020
Mark Chapman introduces highlights and analysis of the day’s two Premier League games involving four sides with designs on the European qualification places. Everton have had only two European campaigns in the past decade but are in contention for another after improving under three-time Champions League-winning manager Carlo Ancelotti. On Sunday, they host fellow top-six contenders Manchester United, who continue to struggle for consistency under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The other fixture pits Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho against his former Porto goalkeeper Nuno Espirito Santo, now in his third season in charge of Wolves. Spurs won the reverse fixture in December courtesy of Jan Vertonghen’s stoppage-time header.
Episode 24: MOTD2 - 23rd February 2020
Mark Chapman presents highlights of today’s three Premier League games, which featured both Manchester United and Arsenal. United hosted Watford, who have shown a marked improvement since the arrival of new head coach Nigel Pearson in December. Norwich travelled to Wolves, desperately in need of points in their efforts to avoid relegation, while Arsenal and Everton did battle at the Emirates Stadium.
Episode 23: MOTD2 - 16th February 2020
Highlights of today’s two Premier League matches. Aston Villa host Tottenham, while Arsenal are in action against Newcastle. Tottenham came from behind to beat Villa 3-1 on the opening weekend, but inconsistent form during the autumn eventually saw manager Mauricio Pochettino replaced by Jose Mourinho. If Mourinho is to guide Spurs to European qualification, they may need to beat a Villa side who have spent most of the season battling relegation. It’s a similar story for Arsenal, who sacked head coach Unai Emery in November, replacing him with Mikel Arteta. His team will need to be wary against a Newcastle side who have already beaten Chelsea, Manchester United and Spurs this season. There is also analysis of the goals and incidents from the rest of the weekend’s matches.
Episode 22: MOTD2 - 9th February 2020
Mark Chapman presents highlights of today’s Premier League fixture as Sheffield United host Bournemouth. Sheffield United’s first game back in the Premier League for 12 years ended with a 1-1 draw away at Bournemouth, but since then both clubs have had vastly differing seasons. Chris Wilder’s Blades have been the surprise package of the season while Eddie Howe’s Cherries are struggling near the foot of the table.
Episode 21: MOTD2 - 2nd February 2020
Reshmin Chowdhury presents highlights of the day’s two fixtures from the Premier League, with Manchester City travelling to Tottenham and Burnley hosting Arsenal. Pep Guardiola’s City side have beaten Tottenham in five of their past seven encounters but it was Spurs who famously emerged victorious on away goals in last season’s Champions League quarter-final. August’s reverse league fixture ended in a 2-2 draw with Tottenham twice coming from behind to rescue a point. The day’s other fixture sees Arsenal travel to Burnley looking to preserve their fine record against the Clarets, having won each of their past 11 matches in all competitions. There is also a round-up of the goals from the weekend's other eight Premier League games.
Episode 20: MOTD2 - 19th January 2020
Join Mark Chapman and guests as they analyse today’s Premier League matches, including title-chasing Liverpool’s blockbuster clash with Manchester United at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp’s team are bidding for a first league title in the Premier League era and will want three points against their arch-rivals. Liverpool’s triumph in this encounter last season was a first league win at home against United for five years. In today’s other fixture, Leicester City were aiming to keep pace at the top of the table when they travelled to Burnley.
