Saturday Soccer Action Live Updates: Liverpool versus The Seagulls, Chelsea vs The Toffees along with More Fixtures

A pleasant day here in London, where the sun is indeed shining, though by the moment we're at the interval, dusk will be falling. Speaking of which, can there be a happy send-off for Mohamed Salah?

Salah on the substitutes for Liverpool. So is Alexander Isak. Further team news is imminent but it appears like Florian Wirtz playing behind Ekitike in attack.

Reports from La Liga, where Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso said Kylian Mbappe is fit to play on Sunday against Alaves. Mbappe missed 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 if he starts." 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 joined Rovers' Kacper Lopata in being shown a red card.
