Matchweek 16 in the Premier League is here, with USA Network and NBC promising to televise a combined six live matches from the upcoming round, including this weekend's standout fixture.
Five of those six matches will be available on USA Network, starting with Newcastle's showdown with Leicester City. That is the only game scheduled for Saturday, with the remaining four taking place on Sunday and Monday.
The headline match is the Manchester Derby, with Manchester United visiting the also-struggling Manchester City this Sunday at 11:30 a.m. ET. The Red Devils enter this clash on a two-game losing streak in the league, having lost to Arsenal and Nottingham Forest, while Guardiola's side boasts only one win in their last 10 fixtures across all competitions.
Chelsea wrap up Sunday's action with an interesting clash with Brentford. The London giants sit behind only league leaders Liverpool in the standings in what has so far been a promising season for the Blues. Can Enzo Maresca's side maintain this streak against the Bees? Here are all the matches being covered by USA Network on Saturday through Monday.

NBC USA, on the other hand, will deliver only one live tie during the upcoming round, with that being Aston Villa's trip to Nottingham Forest. Interestingly, the hosts currently sit in fifth, level on points with Unai Emery's side but narrowly ahead on goal difference. A win for Villa would see them leapfrog their rivals into the top five.
