European Champions Cup
5.30pmLeinster v Northampton live
England’s lone Champions Cup hope Northampton travel to Dublin in search of an unlikely upset against Leinster. Saints fell just three points short of victory last season when they met the formidable Irish side at the same stage and to reach their first Champions Cup final since 2011, where they lost out to the Dubliners after an historic comeback, they will need the very best of Fin Smith and Henry Pollock. Luke McLaughlin follows all the tries and big tackles live, followed by Robert Kitson’s match report from the Aviva Stadium.
Analysis
8pmInside football with Jonathan Wilson
In the wake of Real Madrid’s Champions League exit and their Copa del Rey final shenanigans after they boycotted the pre-match activities and their demands that the Spanish football federation take action after comments made by the referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea in the buildup to the game, our columnist asks: what next for the Spanish grandees?

Duty First is all set for the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket after victory at Newbury earlier this month and Greg Wood is primed to cover the second day of the weekend’s action.

Scottish Premiership
NoonCeltic v Rangers live
The title won and a domestic treble up for grabs if they beat Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park on 24 May, Celtic are not expected to lower the levels of intensity against their old foes. Oddly, Rangers, 17 points behind the Hoops, have won the past two league derbies before the final Old Firm clash of the season. We’ll be following the cut and thrust live, followed by Ewan Murray’s match report.
Snooker
2pmWorld Snooker Championship final live
Day one of the final at the Crucible and Daniel Harris will follow the action. With persistent speculation about more lucrative offers to stage the showpiece from the likes of Saudi Arabia, or even rebranding the prestige event as a roving spectacular, the 2025 final could be a climax to savour.
Premier League
2pmBrentford v Manchester United live
Can United pull something from the Premier League hat in the tail end of a most dismal season? Ruben Amorim’s side are set to record their lowest ever Premier League points tally and won’t find much respite in west London, particularly as this fixture comes just days after a pivotal Europa League semi-final first leg at Athletic Bilbao. So expect a host of academy graduates to feature, including 17-year-old striker Chido Obi, Harry Amass and Tyler Fredricson. Join Michael Butler to see if the tyros shine, before John Brewin’s report.

Premier League
4.30pmChelsea v Liverpool live
The title may be in the Reds’ pocket but Liverpool are unlikely to ease up on the gas against a Chelsea side under pressure to claim a Champions League place. We’ll be following the action live before Jonathan Liew and Barney Ronay provide the very best in sportswriting on the match.
Formula One
9pmMiami Grand Prix live
George Russell has taken on the senior role with aplomb since Lewis Hamilton’s departure for Ferrari and it would be wise not to rule him out in Miami. The 27-year-old Mercedes driver may not be able to match the pace of the McLarens but three podiums in the first five races cannot be ignored. Lap-by-lap commentary comes from Beau Dure in the United States.
