NBC Sports Announces Coverage for PREMIER LEAGUE Doubleheader

NBC Sports Group's Premier League coverage this weekend features five games on NBCSN highlighted by a pair of blockbuster Sunday matches pitting top-tier teams. NBCSN will have commentators on site for both games on Sunday as well as an on-site studio at White Hart Lane.

NBCSN's Sunday slate begins at 9:30 a.m. ET at Old Trafford as sixth-place Manchester United, nine points out of the Champions League-qualifying top four, host second-place Liverpool and Premier League scoring leader Luis Suarez (24 goals). English soccer commentator Steve Bower is joined by Everton and U.S. Men's National Team goalkeeper Tim Howard on the call. Howard, who played three seasons with Manchester United (2003-2006), is in his eighth season with Everton, seven of which were spent playing under current Manchester United manager David Moyes (2006-2013). He joins NBCSN one day after playing Cardiff City (Saturday, 11 a.m. ET on Extra Time). This is Howard's third game in the booth for NBCSN this season.

NBCSN's Sunday doubleheader continues with the fierce North London derby as fifth-place Tottenham Hotspur take on third-place Arsenal at noon ET. Lead Premier League play-by-play announcer Arlo White is joined by former Chelsea defender Graeme Le Saux on the call. Le Saux also joins legendary U.K. footballer and BBC Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker at White Hart Lane for NBCSN's all-day live on-site Premier League Live studio coverage beginning at 8:30 a.m. ET.

NBCSN kicks off the weekend with a Saturday tripleheader beginning at 8 a.m. ET with Premier League Live, followed by Hull City v. Manchester City, Sunderland v. Crystal Palace and Aston Villa hosting first-place Chelsea.

All matches not on NBCSN in the 11 a.m. Saturday windows will be available on Premier League Extra Time, a bonus television package available to MVPDs at no Extra cost for customers who receive NBCSN.
