EPL Commentators on NBC: April 6, 2018

NBC Sports Group presents a blockbuster Saturday of double-derby Premier League action, highlighted by Manchester City hosting rivals Manchester United this Saturday, April 7, at 12:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Telemundo, with a chance to clinch the Premier League title. With a win in Saturday’s Manchester derby, Manchester City would secure their third Premier League title in the last seven seasons. They have been dominant all season with 27 wins, three draws, and only one loss, and if they beat the Red Devils on Saturday, it would be the earliest a team has ever clinched the Premier League title.

Saturday’s coverage begins at 6:30 a.m. ET with Premier League Live on NBCSN, followed by Everton v. Liverpool in the Merseyside Derby at 7:30 a.m. ET on NBCSN and Universo. The Reds come off a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace, with a goal from the Premier League’s leading scorer Mohamed Salah (29 goals), maintaining their third-place Champions League position. Everton look to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to league-leaders Manchester City.

NBC Sports Group’s lead play-by-play commentator Arlo White and analyst Lee Dixon will call both Everton v. Liverpool and Manchester City v. Manchester United, traveling from Liverpool to Manchester between matches. White and Dixon will also provide pitch-side commentary during build-up to the Manchester Derby.

Immediately following the Manchester Derby, NBC presents a live Goal Zone at 2:30 p.m. ET. Rebecca Lowe hosts Premier League Live, joined by former Jamaica National Team player Robbie Earle, and former U.S. Men’s National Team midfielder Kyle Martino.

Saturday at 10 a.m. ET, NBCSN hosts coverage of Brighton & Hove Albion v. Huddersfield Town, with Bournemouth v. Crystal Palace at 10 a.m. ET on CNBC.
