title: 2nd June 1984: International Football

overview: Match of the Day was back on Saturday nights as a highlights show but was supplemented by live matches on Friday evenings. The BBC and ITV had been allocated seven games each with the commercial channel choosing to broadcast theirs on Sunday afternoons. This was a radical change in strategy by all involved as prior to this new two year contract the only regular live domestic football had been the FA Cup Final, England against Scotland and the European Cup Final. Match of the Day was cancelled from 15 October to 19 November due to strike action at the BBC.

overview: At the start of the season, opinion was widely held that if Liverpool were to be denied a fourth successive Championship, the prize would be most likely to go to Manchester United or Arsenal. Experts are sometimes right, and in the early months of 1984-85 United and Arsenal have gone above Liverpool in both the table and the odds.

overview: Since spending £350,000 to install England's only artificial playing pitch in 1981, QPR have put together the finest home record of any club in the four divisions of the Football League-better even than that of Liverpool, champions for the past three seasons. Liverpool's one previous experience of this wall-to-wall carpet pitch brought no complaints-substitute Steve Nicol's lone goal earned them three points in October last year.

overview: Jimmy Hill presents the best moments and follows the after-match celebrations of the winners.

overview: The show celebrated its 20th anniversary and matches were still being broadcast on Fridays. Most other sports were now seen live on television so the production team wanted to continue the football experiment as well. Jonathan Martin, the Head of Sport at the time, recalled that the experiment was disappointing: "We only got six or seven million viewers on a Friday night which was poor for the slot so we moved to Sundays in the following year." This was to be the last time that Match of the Day contained weekly League highlights until the beginning of the 1992-93 season.

title: 12th January 1986: Watford v Liverpool

overview: Watford's exciting, direct style of football made them runners-up to Liverpool on their arrival in the Canon League First Division in the 1982/3 season. With Liverpool's polish and Watford's constant effort, the fixtures between these two clubs have usually led to plenty of goals, with Liverpool so far having the edge. With the top of the table now sorting itself out, Liverpool need a good result at Vicarage Road today to maintain their thrust for the Championship.

title: 2nd March 1986: Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool

overview: The feathers could fly at today's live coverage from the Canon League Championship. The cockerel that looks down from his perch high above the White Hart Lane stand has seen all the glories of Tottenham football. Today he is challenged in his own roost by Liverpool's equally proud liver bird.

title: 10th May 1986: FA Cup Final: Everton v Liverpool

overview: From Wembley Stadium, highlights of the first all-Merseyside FA Cup Final, Everton versus Liverpool. Jimmy Hill presents the best action, analyses the key moments and talks to the players and manager of the victorious side.

overview: In 1985 the television rights came up for renegotiation and BBC and ITV offered £16m for four years. This was in return for 19 live games plus weekend highlights. The Football League met on Valentine's Day and rejected it. Football was, however, in a weak negotiating position as the game was rife with hooliganism and the two sides became deadlocked. The result was a total black-out for the first part of the season which annoyed fans and concerned the sponsors. The Football League finally backed down and agreed a deal that gave them less money per game than before on a short term two and a half year contract. The remaining six months was worth £1.3m with a two year £6.2m extension confirmed in June. The supporters were delighted and Match of the Day resumed in January. It concentrated mainly on FA Cup highlights and the occasional live League match on a Sunday.

title: Season 1985/86

Season 1986/87

title: 21st September 1986: Everton v Manchester United

overview: For the first of the season's Football League fixtures to be shown live, a visit to Goodison Park for a match featuring two of the game's foremost clubs.

title: 2nd November 1986: West Ham United v Everton

overview: The new strike partnership of  Frank McAvennie and  Tony Cottee formed last season helped West Ham into third position in the league, their highest finish. Between them the two young internationals scored 54 goals for the Hammers, and they are on target again this season, with Cottee well on schedule to reach the tally of 30 he has set himself. Everton's treatment room has been filled by this season's most celebrated injury list. It is a measure of their squad strength that, though permanently below full compliment - and with last season's 40-goal Gary Lineker now exiled in Spain - they stayed unbeaten longer than any other First Division team at the start of 1986-87.

title: 23rd November 1986: Everton v Liverpool

overview: Live soccer action at one of the classic 'derby' matches of the season: Merseyside's 135th League derby, all of them in the First Division, kicks off with honours exactly even: 47 wins for Everton, 47 wins for Liverpool and 40 games drawn. Only in goals scored do Liverpool have the edge -184 to 171. But in terms of Championship success, the men of Anfield stand head and shoulders above everyone. They have won the title 16 times, with Everton and Arsenal sharing second place at eight apiece.

title: 23rd November 1986: Everton v Liverpool

title: 7th December 1986: Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur

overview: Television's first full-length examination of two of the game's glamour clubs since they came under new management. United's troubled start to the season led to  Ron Atkinson being replaced a month ago by  Alex Ferguson from Aberdeen. Tottenham changed their manager in the summer,  David Pleat moving in to the big city spotlight after an eight-year spell with Luton Town.

title: 14th December 1986: Liverpool v Chelsea

overview: When it comes to contention for the League Championship, little or nothing changes at Anfield. Liverpool have won it 16 times and as this season's halfway stage approaches they are in their familiar position as one of the foremost challengers. This time last year, Chelsea were in the shake-up too, but they faded in the second half of the season and are still trying to find themselves. The Kop, no doubt, expects three points this afternoon from a fixture that Liverpool have not lost for 51 years. Chelsea manager John Hollins' response to such a statistic would be that all bad things must come to an end. After all, Chelsea did get a draw at Anfield last season.

title: 14th December 1986: Liverpool v Chelsea

title: 4th January 1987: Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal

overview: New Year soccer live on TV starts with a cracker in prospect and the supremacy of north London at stake as Tottenham and Arsenal meet for the 100th time in the Football League. They kick off with the record exactly level: 39 wins a piece, followed by a draw for the 21st time when they clashed at Highbury in September.

title: 11th January 1987: FA Cup Third Round: Luton Town v Liverpool

Manchester United v Coventry City

Wimbledon v Portsmouth

Bradford City v Everton

title: 31st January 1987: FA Cup Fourth Round

title: 22nd February 1987: FA Cup Fifth Round: Wimbledon v Everton

overview: Ten years ago Wimbledon were non-league nobodies. Now they're not only rubbing shoulders with the elite in the championship, but they have knocked over quite a few too. Not Everton though - they have taken the full six points off 'the Dons' this season. But this is the Cup, which for Everton represents one leg of the double that was achieved last year by the Red half of Merseyside. It's a tie with a whiff of Cup history about it, whoever wins. Everton have played in the last three finals and now go for a record fourth in a row. Wimbledon's target is to reach the quarter-finals for the first time. This same fifth round two years ago is the furthest they have gone.

title: 1st March 1987: League Cup Semi-final Second leg: Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal

overview: This is more than a north London derby - they are playing for a place in the Littlewoods Challenge Cup Final at Wembley on Sunday 5 April, which you will be able to watch live on BBCtv.

title: 8th March 1987: Watford v Everton

overview: The first Littlewoods Cup Final is the 27th in the history of the League Cup competition, and Liverpool head the honours list with four triumphs (1981-4).

title: 16th May 1987: FA Cup Final: Coventry City v Tottenham Hotspur

overview: Highlights of this afternoon's FA Cup Final from Wembley Stadium between Coventry City and Tottenham Hotspur.

title: 19th March 1989: FA Cup Sixth Round: Everton v Wimbledon

overview: Last season, Wimbledon defied both logic and the critics, as they beat League Champions Liverpool to win the FA Cup. The trophy they cherish; their ambition is to retain it. Can the south west London side upset the odds again by winning at Everton, football's 'school of science'? It's an intriguing prospect, with the guarantee of goals at half-time.

It's now Liverpool's turn to face the 1992 giant-killers in an intriguing Wembley clash. Will John Byrne, the Sunderland striker who has scored in every round of the Cup so far, add a Wembley goal to his tally?

overview: After several years of speculation it was announced in February that a new, breakaway FA Premier League was going to be formed.

In May 1992 the rights were decided and each club had one vote. BSkyB were awarded live matches on Sundays and Mondays and the BBC gained the Saturday night highlights as part of a five year deal. The two companies also joined forces to sign a new five year deal to cover FA Cup and International matches. ITV would be covering the Football League and the League Cup.

Their fanbase will also hope new goalkeeper Mark Bosnich , who has filled the yawning gap left by Peter Schmeichel , adapts quickly to continental competition in United's first night of European action this season. Lazio lost striker Christian Vieri to Inter Milan in a world-record deal in the close season, but their side is still one of Europe's strongest, with the Argentinian duo of Diego Simeone and Juan Veron providing midfield inspiration. Coach Sven Goran Eriksson's side narrowly missed out on the Italian league title last season, but clinched the last ever Cup Winners' Cup when they beat Real Mallorca at Villa Park in May.

title: 11th June 2000: Euro 2000

overview: Group D: Netherlands v Czech Republic from the Amsterdam Arena. The Dutch are many people's favourites to win the tournament and will be hoping to capitalise on their home advantage, but the Czech side, largely unchanged since reaching the Euro 96 final, will be hoping to make their mark early on in the competition.

title: 13th June 2000: Euro 2000

title: 14th June 2000: Euro 2000

overview: Group B: Italy v Belgium from the King Baudouin stadium in Brussels. As automatic qualifiers, Belgium have had the tricky task of preparing for the tournament without the benefit of competitive matches, but their recent results have included their first-ever victory on Italian soil - a 3-1 win over tonight's opponents - in Lecce last November. Italian coach Dino Zoff will be looking for a significant improvement in his side's patchy form since being eliminated on penalties in the 1998 World Cup quarter-finals by host nation France. Although they should start as favourites tonight, the Italians will be wary of an upset, having not beaten Belgium in four attempts since 1977.

title: 16th June 2000: Euro 2000

title: 17th June 2000: Euro 2000

overview: Group A: England v Germany at the Stade Communal in Charleroi, Belgium. In a tight group England cannot afford to slip up against their old rivals as they bid for a quarter-final place. Four years ago Germany ended England's hopes of a place in the Euro 96 final in a sudden-death shoot-out. Today's match will not go to penalties, but offers Euro 96 survivors such as David Seaman , Tony Adams and Alan Shearer the ideal opportunity to redress the balance. Neither side impressed in qualifying, but that means nothing as two of the big names in world football go head to head once again.

title: 17th June 2000: Euro 2000

title: 18th June 2000: Euro 2000

overview: Group C: Norway v Yugoslavia from the Sclessin stadium in Liege, Belgium. Some familiar faces are more than likely to feature in the Norwegian side, with Manchester United's Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Henning Berg , as well as Chelsea's Tore Andre Flo in the squad. The team qualified by finishing top of their group by a comfortable margin and are a difficult side to beat. The Yugoslavs, however, are for many people the dark horses of the competition and could do well if the likes of Fiorentina striker Predrag Mijatovic and Lazio defender Sinisa Mihajlovic can hit top form.

title: 18th June 2000: Euro 2000

overview: Group C: Yugoslavia v Spain, Slovenia v Norway. On the day that the group stage reaches its conclusion, these Group C matches will decide the quarter-final places.

title: 18th October 2001: UEFA Cup: Ipswich Town v Helsingborgs IF

overview: Coverage from Portman Road of this Uefa Cup second round, first leg tie. Following their success against Torpedo Moscow in the first round of the championship, Ipswich face another tough test when they take on Swedish side Helsingborgs.

title: 2nd August 2015: Community Shield: Chelsea v Arsenal

overview: Highlights of the season's traditional curtain-raiser at Wembley Stadium, which sees Premier League champions Chelsea take on FA Cup winners Arsenal. The match will be the first between the clubs since long-serving Blues goalkeeper Petr Cech was allowed to move across the capital to join the Gunners, although it remains to be seen whether the 33-year-old makes his debut against his former employers. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger may see this match as an opportunity to rid himself of an unwanted statistic - he is winless in 13 matches against Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho. Wenger's men have failed to score a single goal in their last five games against the Blues, but they will have fond memories of their last trip to Wembley in May, when they thrashed Aston Villa 4-0 to win the FA Cup.

Meanwhile, Everton take on reigning champions Chelsea at Goodison Park, which played host to a remarkable game between these sides last season - Jose Mourinho's side eventually winning 6-3. Elsewhere, Arsenal host Stoke, Manchester City travel to Crystal Palace and West Brom are home to Southampton.
