Saturday’s Premier League action begins with Manchester United v Tottenham at 12.30pm GMT; team news for that fixture is scheduled for 11.15pm today. There are seven top-flight matches across the day, with Liverpool v Manchester City set to provide a weekend blockbuster on Sunday.

All EFL kick-offs will start one minute later than usual as part of the Every Minute Matters campaign, which urges fans to learn CPR during Heart Month. The campaign stresses that survival chances fall by up to 10% for every minute without CPR or defibrillation, and Micah Richards has teamed up with Tom Lockyer to promote the drive.

“Learning CPR takes just 15 minutes, and it could save a life,” Richards said. Leeds beat West Ham at Elland Road last night for a fifth straight night-game home victory, a result that left them nine points clear of the relegation zone.
