Patrick Bamford and Leeds United host Manchester City, who were last season’s Premier League runners-up, and champions the prior two seasons, this Saturday, Oct. 3 at 12:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Universo, highlighting this weekend’s Premier League action.
After opening the season with a close loss at defending champions Liverpool, Leeds have won their past two Premier League outings, including a 1-0 win at Sheffield United last Sunday in which Bamford scored an 88th-minute winner. Manchester City are looking to bounce back after last weekend’s 5-2 defeat against Jamie Vardy and Leicester City at Etihad Stadium. Arlo White will call the match on NBC, joined by former Premier League footballer Lee Dixon, live from Elland Road.
Rebecca Lowe hosts Goal Zone, Premier League Mornings, and Premier League Live, joined by former Jamaica National Team player Robbie Earle, and former Premier League and U.S. Men’s National Team goalkeeper Tim Howard.
This weekend’s coverage kicks off Saturday at 7 a.m. ET with Premier League Mornings on Peacock Premium, followed by Chelsea hosting Crystal Palace at 7:30 a.m. ET. At 10 a.m. ET, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Everton – who’ve won their opening three Premier League games – host Brighton & Hove Albion on NBCSN and Universo.

Sunday’s live Premier League coverage features a trio of Peacock Premium matches in the morning, beginning at 7 a.m. ET with Jamie Vardy and top-of-the-table Leicester City hosting West Ham, who recorded their first victory of the season in a 4-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday.
