Saturday Soccer Action Live Updates: The Reds v The Seagulls, The Blues v Everton along with More Fixtures

Good day here in the capital, where the sunshine is actually shining, although by the time we're at half-time, dusk will be falling. Speaking of which, can there be a happy send-off for Mohamed Salah? Furthermore, that doesn't have to be one permanently, of course. The player, like many others will be heading to the continental tournament, regardless of what transpires. We are waiting for the starting lineups from Liverpool's game with the south coast side.

News from La Liga, 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 sidelined 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 receiving a red card.
