All Times CDT

TV Schedule first, then some permutations and shite later.

Premier League
Everton - Bournemouth, 9 a.m. (NBCSN)
Newcastle United - Crystal Palace, 9 a.m. (USA)
Watford - Aston Villa, 9 a.m. (Extra Time)
Stoke City - Sunderland, 9 a.m. (Extra Time)
West Bromwich Albion - West Ham United, 9 a.m. (Extra Time)
Arsenal - Norwich City, 11:30 a.m. (NBC)

Most intriguing thing here is all 3 relegation candidates are in action. Norwich have easily the toughest of the games away to Arsenal. Sunderland could nick a point at Stoke who have been a bit limp as of late. West Ham's top 4 hopes are all but faded away, but they need to get points to ensure they don't slip out of Europe altogether.

MLS - All Games Direct Kick...le sigh
Montreal - Colorado, 3 p.m.
NYCFC - Vancouver, 3 p.m.
Philadelphia - San Jose, 3 p.m.
Seattle - Columbus, 3 p.m.
Chicago - DC United, 4 p.m.
New England - Orlando, 6:30 p.m.
Real Salt Lake - Houston, 8:30 p.m.

Absolutely no national exposure on Saturday is a horrendous way to use this joint TV deal. Complete waste. fricking NASL gets a game at least on beIN.

La Liga
Real Sociedad - Real Madrid, 9 a.m. (beIN)
Atlético Madrid - Rayo Vallecano, 11:15 a.m. (beIN)
Real Betis - Barcelona, 1:30 p.m. (beIN)
Granada - Las Palmas, 3:05 p.m. (beIN español)

Fixtures re-arranged so the top 3 are all playing on the same day. Pretty simple. Barcelona have the head-to-head edge on Atlético, with whom they are level on points. Real a point behind. Should be fun to watch these play out.

Bundesliga
Bayern Munich - Borussia Mönchengladbach, 8:30 a.m. (FS2)
Borussia Dortmund - Wolfsburg, 8:30 a.m. (FS+)
Darmstadt - Eintracht Frankfurt, 8:30 a.m. (Fox Deportes)
Bayer Leverkusen - Hertha Berlin, 11:30 a.m. (FS1)

The logjam at the bottom is something to keep an eye on. Hannover just about mathematically relegated. Still 4 or 5 teams that could finish in the bottom 3. Only the bottom 2 are automatically relegated. 16th place will playoff with 3rd place from 2. Bundesliga.

Unreal they are on the brink of League 2. Does mean Wigan are now mathematically promoted to the Championship. If Burton win their match, they are promoted as well.

From everything I read he's a great person, but that doesn't help us win.
