    5 Live is across all seven of today's fixtures with back-to-back commentaries of Everton-Burnley at 15:00 BST followed by Brighton-Arsenal at 17:30.

    Former Everton and England midfielder Izzy Christiansen joins Ian Dennis at Goodison, while ex-West Ham and Wales defender Danny Gabbidon is at Brighton with Conor McNamara.

  6. Battle to escape the drop

    ..

    It is also a huge weekend at the bottom.

    Everton start it with a four-point safety cushion but could end it just one point from 18th if results go against them.

    The Toffees have failed to win any of their past 13 Premier League matches under Sean Dyche, since defeating Burnley 2-0 at Turf Moor on 16 December.

    Burnley are at Goodison Park today looking to put one over on their former boss Dyche.

    With Nottingham Forest at Tottenham on Sunday (18:00 BST kick-off), Luton have a chance of going level on points with 17th.

  7. Six weeks to go

    ..

    Hello!

    This enthralling Premier League season is just six weeks from the end.

    And still we have no idea who is going to win it other than it is likely to be one of Liverpool, Arsenal or Manchester City.

    Liverpool - who have a two-point lead with eight games left - play at Manchester United on Sunday (15:30 BST kick-off). That means they could be bumped down to third if City and Arsenal do the business today.

    But it's not just at the top where things are tense.
