Match of the Day returns to BBC television screens this Saturday with a new show Match of the Day 2 on Sunday.

 

Guests over the weekend include Gerard Houllier, Gordon Strachan, Alan Hansen, Mark Lawrenson, Lee Dixon, Mark Bright, Gavin Peacock and Garth Crooks.

 

On Match of the Day, Gary Lineker is joined by Alan Hansen and Mark Lawrenson for analysis of the day's action - including Tottenham against Liverpool, the Tyne-Tees derby between Middlesbrough and Newcastle, and newly-promoted Norwich against Crystal Palace.

 

For the first time, Match of the Day is sending a commentator to every match, and will include highlights of every match within the programme - not just the goals.

 

New for Sunday nights is Match of the Day 2, presented by Adrian Chiles.

 

Featuring highlights of Sunday's games between Everton and Arsenal, and Chelsea and Manchester United, there will also be further analysis of all the weekend's action and talking points.

 

Adrian is joined in the studio by guests Gordon Strachan and Gerard Houllier.

 

Football Focus previews all the weekend's football from across the divisions.

 

Presenter Manish Bhasin is joined in the studio by Alan Hansen, Mark Lawrenson and Lee Dixon.

 

As the scores start to roll in, Ray Stubbs presents Final Score. He is joined by Mark Bright, Garth Crooks, Lee Dixon and Gavin Peacock.
