A Super Sunday slate of Premier League action awaits, and Match of the Day is set to deliver the goods. Manchester City makes the trek to Leicester, a ground where they’ve historically enjoyed success, but as any football fan knows, past performance is no guarantee of future results. Can the Foxes conjure up the same magic that saw them dismantle City 5-2 back in 2020, a match forever etched in Leicester lore thanks to Jamie Vardy’s hat-trick? Or will City continue their relentless march towards another title?
Meanwhile, Liverpool heads to London for a clash with West Ham, a fixture that has recently favored the Reds. Having trounced the Hammers 5-1 in the League Cup not long ago, and boasting a seven-match unbeaten streak against them across all competitions, Liverpool, under the steady hand of manager Arne Slot, will look to maintain their winning ways. But West Ham, ever unpredictable, is always capable of an upset.
The day’s other fixtures offer their own share of intrigue: Tottenham squares off against Wolves, Fulham takes on Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest battles Everton, and Crystal Palace hosts Southampton. It’s a veritable feast of football, and Kelly Somers will be on hand to guide viewers through the highlights, providing analysis and insight into all six matches.
Match of the Day airs Sunday, December 29 at 10:30 PM on BBC One.
