Episode 6: MOTD2 - 26th September 2021
Mark Chapman introduces highlights of the day’s two Premier League matches, comprising the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham and Southampton’s clash with Wolves.
Arsenal came from behind to beat Spurs 2-1 in March, but for the fifth consecutive season they ended the year below their rivals in the table. The Gunners spent heavily to strengthen their squad in the summer, and the pressure is on boss Mikel Arteta to produce results sooner rather than later. Tottenham, meanwhile, managed to hold on to star striker Harry Kane despite interest from Manchester City, and their new head coach Nuno Espirito Santo will be optimistic his squad is good enough for a top-four finish.
Nuno’s former club Wolves will be hoping to extend their good recent record against Southampton. The Molineux club – now coached by Bruno Lage – have lost one of six league matches against Saints since promotion in 2018.
Episode 10: MOTD2 - 31st October 2021
Mark Chapman introduces highlights of the day’s two Premier League matches, with Aston Villa hosting West Ham and Norwich City taking on Leeds United.
The Hammers are unbeaten in their previous six games against Villa and won both of last season’s meetings. Norwich, meanwhile, will hope to boost their survival hopes as they take on a Leeds side who have found wins harder to come by in their second year since promotion.
Mark and guests will also look back at all the goals and talking points from Saturday’s seven matches.
Episode 5: MOTD2 - 19th September 2021
Mark Chapman presents highlights from today’s three Premier League games, including a mouthwatering clash between Tottenham and Chelsea.

There was another fascinating encounter in London today as West Ham faced Manchester United. The Hammers may have won just seven of their previous 50 Premier League matches against the Red Devils, but David Moyes’s side will be confident of a rare victory over their Manchester rivals given their impressive form over the last 12 months.
Leicester City were also in action today as they travelled south to take on Brighton. The show will also include all the goals from Saturday’s Premier League matches.
