Here’s a message from Kári Tulinius:
“I didn’t mean to watch Spurs v West Ham, but I switched over during the first half, and I haven’t been able to stop. The running is aimless, the passing wayward and the decision-making awful, and yet they’re trying so hard. It’s the footballing equivalent of an influencer trying to post through a scandal.”
There’s another disallowed goal, this time at Anfield. Ekitike puts the ball into the back of the net from close range but the forward strayed offside.

It really is a must win for Madrid at home against the team second bottom of La Liga.
Preamble
Hello and welcome to Saturday’s clockwatch. We’ve got five Premier League games for you at 3pm, with West Ham traveling to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to face Spurs and Burnley travelling to Anfield to play Liverpool.
Both London clubs have struggled in the past few weeks. Spurs have won just two of their last 12 games and lost to Aston Villa in the FA Cup last week. Meanwhile, West Ham progressed to the fourth round of the FA Cup after beating Queens Park Rangers, but remain winless in their last 10 Premier League games. With both sides lacking flair, this game will likely be decided by set pieces – Spurs have scored 11 times from corners this season (the joint highest tally in the league) while West Ham have conceded 12 goals from corners (the highest tally in the league).
Liverpool are on a good run of form after their early season stutter, unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions. Burnley on the other hand, are battling relegation, but Scott Parker will be hoping that their 5-1 victory over Millwall in the FA Cup is a turning point.
I’ll also bring you updates from Chelsea v Brentford, Leeds v Fulham and Sunderland v Crystal Palace, as well as the games in the Football League, Scotland and Europe’s major leagues.
Team news is on its way shortly. Get in touch with your thoughts on today’s games.
