Soccer
Premier League
Festive Fixtures is here. 40 matches will be played over the next 16 days, and many of them will be streaming LIVE on Peacock. This is a notoriously tough part of the schedule, and winning here is crucial for the rest of the season. A well-timed winning streak can set a club up to hold the top spot until May. A run of bad luck can, on the other hand, send them down the table rapidly. For teams in the relegation zone (West Ham, Burnley, and Wolves) as well as those dangerously close to it (Leeds and Nottingham Forest), these next few weeks represent the best chance to get clear and stay in the league. On the top of the table, Arsenal needs to stay winning. The Gunners are only two points ahead of Man City and three ahead of Aston Villa. Both second and third-place teams see an opportunity to leap to the top if Arsenal falters.
Saturday Dec 20 at 10 ET: Brighton v Sunderland
Saturday Dec 20 at 10a ET: Bournemouth v Burnley
Saturday Dec 20 at 10a ET: Wolves v Brentford
Saturday Dec 20 at 12:30p ET: Spurs v Liverpool

Gainbridge Super League
With one day of competition left before the winter break, it’s must-win for every team in the Gainbridge Super League. They want to be in the best possible shape going into the spring’s race for the top four. A third straight draw kept Lexington SC in first, but only one point ahead of Sporting JAX, who also took a draw last week. Both teams got a little bit of breathing room thanks to a loss from Carolina Ascent FC, who are now three points below second place. Neither they nor fourth-place Dallas Trinity FC can afford a loss this weekend though. If either fail to take any points this week, Fort Lauderdale United FC could break into the top four with a win.
Saturday Dec 20 at 2p ET: Carolina Ascent FC vs. DC Power FC
Saturday Dec 20 at 3:30p ET: Dallas Trinity FC vs. Lexington SC
Saturday Dec 20 at 5p ET: Sporting JAX vs. Tampa Bay Sun FC
Saturday Dec 20 at 7:30p ET: Fort Lauderdale United FC vs. Spokane Zephyr FC

This year’s field includes eight former world No. 1s including defending champion Bernhard Langer playing with his son, Jason. Other pairings include Nelly Korda and her father, Petr, Fred Coubles and his stepson, Hunter Hanneman, Annika Sorenstam and her son, Will McGee, and more.

Saturday Dec 20 at 1:30p ET: Copper Mountain – Snowboard Halfpipe Finals
Basketball
Indy Classic
As non-conference matchups start to wrap up for the season, the Indy classic arrives with a couple of back-to-back bangers. A fundraiser for Indiana Sports Corps, this doubleheader features four of the most fun college basketball programs in the country. Northwestern, Butler, Auburn, and Purdue will face off at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, normally the home of the Indiana Pacers. With the chance to bring home a win in front of an NBA arena crowd, these teams will be extra competitive on Saturday.
Saturday Dec 20 at 4p ET: Northwestern vs. Butler
Saturday Dec 20 at 6p ET: Auburn (21) vs. Purdue (6)
Big East Men’s Basketball
The Big East is already into conference battle territory, with half the teams already having faced a fellow Big East opponent. Now, four more teams have a chance to notch their first conference win. Marquette and Creighton face off, each hoping to bounce back from a two-game losing streak. Come back Tuesday to see Villanova face Seton Hall. Both teams have played strong in the first half of the season, but now’s the time to make a statement in the conference before the new year.
Saturday Dec 20 at 8:30p ET: Marquette vs. Creighton
Tuesday Dec 23 at 7p ET: Villanova vs. Seton Hall
Big Ten Men's Basketball
The Big Ten keeps the college hoops coming. With the new year in sight, the time to get a winning streak going is now. No. 2 Michigan is way ahead of us on that one. They’ve won their last 10 games and this weekend, they’re back home against LaSalle. Then, we head over to Oregon where the Ducks are set to face No. 7 Gonzaga. That’ll be a tough game for Oregon, who are 6–5 on the season with two losses in the conference. They are on a two-game winning streak though, and they’ll be fired up to keep it going against a ranked opponent from eastern Washington.
Sunday Dec 21 at 3:30p ET: LaSalle vs. Michigan (2)
Sunday Dec 21 at 6p ET: Gonzaga (7) vs. Oregon
Watch College Basketball on Peacock.
NBA
After a brief hiatus for the finals of the NBA Cup, Coast 2 Coast Tuesday makes its triumphant return this coming week. With Peacock NBA Monday also featuring two games this week, we get back-to-back doubleheaders onceagain. It all starts with Hornets vs. Cavaliers on Monday. Both teams find themselves in the bottom half of the Eastern Conference and will be eager to claw their way up now that NBA Cup games are done. Then, Monday night keeps going with Grizzlies vs. Thunder. Oklahoma City just took their second loss of the season, but if the last few months are any indication, that’ll be their last one for a while. Come back Tuesday night for Nuggets vs. Mavericks and Rockets vs. Clippers. Both Western Conference matchups, both the Nuggets and Rockets will be looking for a win here to give them any chance of shrinking the Thunder’s lead.
Monday Dec 22 at 7p ET: Charlotte Hornets vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
Monday Dec 22 at 9:30p ET: Memphis Grizzlies vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
Tuesday Dec 23 at 8p ET: Denver Nuggets vs. Dallas Mavericks
Tuesday Dec 23 at 11p ET: Houston Rockets vs. Los Angeles Clippers
Watch NBA on Peacock.
Football
NFL
With only a few weeks to go in the regular season, teams fighting for playoff spots can’t afford any mistakes. The New England Patriots are still in first place in the AFC East. After a stunning loss to the Buffalo Bills last week, they’reonly one game ahead. If they want to keep their spot, they have to win this one. It’ll be tough, though. The Baltimore Ravens are one game behind the Steelers, and while a win here doesn’t put them on top by itself, they need to win out in order to capitalize on Pittsburgh's mistakes (if any). They’ll have the home crowd behind them and they’re not going to make this easy for the Patriots.
Sunday Dec 21 at 7p ET: New England Patriots vs. Baltimore Ravens
Sunday Dec 21 at 11:30p ET: Peacock Sunday Night Football Final
