Weekend Soccer Live Updates: The Reds v The Seagulls, Chelsea v Everton and Further Action

Good day from London, where the sunshine is actually shining, although by the time we're at half-time, dusk will be descending. Talking of which, can there be a happy send-off for Mohamed Salah? Furthermore, that does not have to be one permanently, of course. He, like many players will be heading to the continental tournament, regardless of what happens. We await the team news from Liverpool's game 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 was absent for the Champions League defeat by Manchester City. Alonso stated, "We've got Kylian back, he's ready to play, and tomorrow we'll see and decide on his involvement." Real Madrid are without several injured players including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dani Carvajal and Eduardo Camavinga.

Regarding the local derby, one fan reported: "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.
