Barclays Premier League

Manchester City’s critical game against Southampton is one of three Barclays Premier League matches to be shown on BT Sport in April. City, who are close on the heels of Chelsea and Arsenal, will be hoping for three points but Southampton, under Mauricio Pochettino, have proved to be tricky opposition this season. In fact, they took a point off City in December when Dani Osvaldo scored a sensational equaliser for the Saints.

Everton will also face the Saints in April, another match that will feature exclusively live on BT Sport. Roberto Martinez's Toffees have had a strong season and will be seeking three vital points in the hope of a top four finish.

Fifth placed Spurs are one of the teams battling with Everton for that coveted fourth place and the chance to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. They will also feature live on BT Sport in April when they take on Fulham at White Hart Lane in a London derby. That match will be of huge importance to Fulham who are bottom of the league and in danger of being relegated from the Premier League for the first time since 2001.
