⚽️ 00:00: Barcelona vs Real Madrid, friendly match
💬 Match with text streaming
Intrigue: “El Clásico” as part of the American tour of the teams
Barcelona and Real Madrid prepare for the new season. The culés plan to defend the title Examples and reach the decisive stages of the Champions League. Real Madrid is no less ambitious. This is also hinted at in the teams’ transfer campaign. Before, Madrid had already played two control matches: they beat Milan (3:2) and Manchester United (2:0). Barça lost to Arsenal a couple of days ago (3-5). Now the teams will face the main game of the preseason. Not even the friendly nature detracts from the principles of the match between Barça and Real Madrid. El Clásico is a guaranteed show, you can’t miss it.

👊 3:25 *: Roman Kopylov (Russia) vs. Claudio Ribeiro (Brazil), UFC 291
*Combat time is approximate
Intrigue: Will Kopylov make his UFC balance positive?
Roman Kopylov did not start very well in the UFC, having suffered two losses. But then our compatriot got two victories, defeating Alessio Di Chirico and Punahele Soriano. Now the Russian can positively balance his promotion: for this, he needs to defeat the Brazilian Claudio Ribeiro. And there, the greatest rival will be just around the corner, because Roman knows how to do it wonderfully.
We remember the magnificent victory of Kopylov:
Do you have a liver there? Russian warrior through an American knocked out a contract with the UFC
👊 6:30*: Jan Blachowicz (Poland) vs. Alex Pereira (Brazil), UFC 291
*Combat time is approximate
Intrigue: Will Pereira make a splash in the light heavyweight division?
After losing in a title fight to Israel Adesanya, the huge Alex Pereira decided to switch divisions. The Brazilian will make his UFC light heavyweight debut with a fight against former champion Jan Blachowicz. For Pereira, this will be a real test: can he still be a top boxer in the new conditions? If Alex wins, his next fight will definitely be a title fight.

🥊 6:30*: Terence Crawford (USA) vs. Errol Spence (USA), title fight
*Combat time is approximate
Intrigue: How will the most anticipated fight of the year end?
While the promoters can’t stage the Fury-Usyk fight by any means, the title of boxing’s most anticipated fight of the year was intercepted by other guys. Errol Spence and Terence Crawford will fight for the undisputed world welterweight title. It’s good that there are more and more absolutes in boxing, but who will win? Most pundits consider Crawford the favorite, but Spence likes to set up surprises. This fight is not to be missed.
How the fight of the year was organized:
“The biggest fight in history” Crawford and Spence will fight, although nobody believed
👊 7:00 am: Dustin Poirier (United States) vs. Justin Gaethje (United States), UFC 291
*Combat time is approximate
Intrigue: we are waiting for a bloody felling for the strangest belt in the UFC
Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje are the unluckiest contenders for the lightweight belt. These guys are incredibly talented, they always put on a show, but they can’t become champions. The UFC decided to meet the fighters halfway and play each other for the BMF title, which is awarded to the main “bad guy” of the promotion. Yeah, this isn’t a full title, but Dustin and Justin will definitely put together a merciless cut.
Explaining why the BMF belt is a strange idea:
Is it still UFC or is it already wrestling? The BMF Belt Is The Most Ridiculous Idea Of A Big Promotion
⚽️ 10:00 am: Switzerland vs New Zealand Women’s World Cup 3rd round Group A
Intrigue: Tournament hosts risk not leaving the group
The decisive matches of the group stage of the 2023 World Cup begin! New Zealand will secure their place in the World Cup playoffs for the first time if they can beat Switzerland, in the event of a tie it will all depend on the outcome of the side match between the Philippines and Norway. Switzerland topped the A quartet with four points and managed to keep clean sheets in their last two games. Earlier, the Swiss defeated the Philippines 2:0 and drew 0:0 with the Norwegians, while the New Zealanders scored a historic 1:0 victory in the opening game against Norway and lost to the Philippines 0:1.

⚽️ 12:30 pm: Germany vs Colombia Women’s World Cup Round 2 Group H
Intrigue: The main party of the group
In the first round, the German team defeated Morocco 6:0 and today they can continue their record streak of reaching the playoffs in all world championships in history. The Germans will definitely go to the round of 16 if they beat the Colombians, and Morocco will score at least one point in the game with South Korea. The Colombian team, also aspiring to leave the group, defeated the Koreans 2-0 in the first round, but in the match with the Euro 2022 finalists they risk playing without Linda Caicedo. One of the best players of the team collapsed in training and could miss the main game of the Colombian team in the group stage of the 2023 World Cup.

⚽️ 15:00: Rubin – Orenburg, RPL, round 2
💬 Match with text streaming
Intrigue: which team will get the first win in the new RPL season?
Rubin and Orenburg showed a good game in the first round of the RPL. The Orenburgers caught Spartak on counterattacks, in the middle of the second half they took the lead with a score of 2:1. But they didn’t even manage a tie. And Rubin prevailed a few minutes from the end of the away game against Loko. But he missed 88 and took only one point from Moscow. Now the teams have a chance to get the first victory of the season. Also, both clubs lost in the Russian Cup. We need to rehabilitate ourselves in front of the fans. Rubin, playing at home, has more chances. But “Orenburg” has already shown that it is good in a foreign field.

⚽️ 4:00 p.m.: Torpedo – Chornomorets, First League, 3rd day
Intrigue: “Torpedo” rushes back to the RPL.
Torpedo left the Russian Premier League at the end of the 2022/2023 season. Now the black and white plan to return. The coach Josep Clotet continues to work, and for the moment it is paying off. In two opening rounds of the First League, Torpedo beat Dynamo Makhachkala and Khimki. Ahead – a meeting with “Chernomorets” Konstantin Zyryanov. The Novorossiysk club at the start shows great results for a rookie in the league. Chernomorets played a draw with two division favourites: Alania (1:1) and Rodina (0:0). Will they stop the third candidate for promotion?

🏎 4:00 p.m.: Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix race
Intrigue: who guessed blindly?
Due to the traditionally rainy Belgian weather and the unusual format of the weekend with only one practice session, the teams did not have the chance to properly prepare for the race. In fact, no one knows how their cars will behave, whether the choice of settings will be successful, how long the tires will last. In such a situation, even the invincible Red Bull could theoretically fail! Furthermore, Max Verstappen, due to a penalty for ordering the gearboxes, does not start from pole position, but sixth. Let’s see if Charles Leclerc, Sergio Pérez, Lewis Hamilton and all the others will have a chance in this situation.

⚽️ 5:30 p.m.: Fakel – Lokomotiv, RPL, matchday 2
💬 Match with text streaming
Intrigue: Will Vadim Evseev take points from the main team in his playing career?
Home “Torch” is always an unpleasant opponent. In Voronezh, they always cheer for his team. And the first home game of the season will definitely gather an audience. In addition, one of the favorites of the RPL, Lokomotiv, comes to visit. Last season, the clubs exchanged victories on their fields. Will Vadim Evseev be able to repeat the trend and “upset” the team in which he spent six years as a footballer? There are chances, but Loko also plans to win. In the first round, the team tied at home with Rubin. To fight for the highest places, it is important not to stumble again.

⚽️ 6:00 p.m.: Leningradets – Rodina, First League, matchday 3
Mystery: Will Sergei Kiryakov’s team be able to stop one of the First League favourites? The modest “Leningradets” under the leadership of Sergei Kiryakov made a great debut in the First League. The team first played a draw with Tula Arsenal (0: 0), and then beat Enisey (1: 0). Rodina is one of the favorites for promotion. But the club has already lost points. In the first round, the Muscovites beat Sokol (4:0), but in the next match they did not beat Chernomorets (0:0). Will the cheeky Primera Liga debutant manage to take points away from Rodina?

⚽️ 20:00: Akhmat – CSKA, RPL, round 2
💬 Match with text streaming
Intrigue: Will CSKA take another win away from Grozny?
CSKA got off to a bad start to the new RPL season, losing to Ural in the first round. Akhmat also lost at home to Wings of the Soviets. But in the second round, Vladimir Fedotov’s team goes to Grozny. CSKA historically plays well away from Akhmat. In the last 10 games, the team won seven times in Grozny, drew once and lost only two games. A good chance for the army team to score three points. But Akhmat, in case of loss, finds himself in a mini-crisis. In addition to the RPL, the team also lost in the Russian Cup to Zenit.

And already in the second round the teams will face each other in the southern derby. Six points for one of the teams at the start of the championship is a great start to a good season. We expect great football!
