Saturday Soccer Action Clockwatch: Liverpool vs The Seagulls, The Blues vs The Toffees along with Further Fixtures

Good afternoon here in London, a place where the sunshine is indeed beaming, although by the moment we're at half-time, dusk will be falling. Talking of which, can there be a positive send-off for Mohamed Salah? Furthermore, that does not have to be a departure forever, of course. He, like many others will be heading to the continental tournament, regardless of what transpires. We await the team news from the Merseyside club's encounter with the south coast side.

News from Spain, where Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso said Kylian Mbappe is available to play on Sunday against Alaves. Mbappe missed the European defeat by Manchester City. Alonso stated, "We've got Kylian back, he's ready to play, and tomorrow we'll see and decide if he starts." Real Madrid are without several sidelined players including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dani Carvajal and Eduardo Camavinga.

On that local derby, one fan commented: "Hi. Bristol Rovers 0 Swindon 3 doesn't tell the half of it. Ten League defeats in a row incoming, which is one club record. Five home losses in a row is another club record... It's not much fun being a Gashead these days." For Swindon, Aaron Drinan has followed Rovers' Kacper Lopata in receiving a red card.
