SOCCER

Brighton lead the way in the opening Premier League game of the day.

Lewis Dunk netted the goal to give Graham's Potter's side a 1-nil lead over Wolves at Molineux.

Three points for the visitors will guarantee them safety, with the second half getting underway around now.

From five-past-two, Manchester United play the first of three games in just five days.

Today's trip to Aston Villa is followed by home games against Leicester on Tuesday and Liverpool on Thursday.

West Ham continue their push for a Champions League place at half four.

The Hammers host Everton at the London Stadium, where a win will bring them to within two points of fourth place.

The late kick-off could see West Brom's battle to stay in the league come to an end.

They'll be relegated if they lose to Arsenal at the Emirates, where there's a seven o'clock kick-off.

***

There's one game in the SSE Airtricity Women's National League this afternoon.

Treaty United host Shelbourne from 2 o'clock.



GAELIC GAMES

Action is underway in today's Allianz Hurling League.

The ball has just been thrown in at Corrigan Park in Belfast, where Antrim are in action against Clare in Division 1B.

The other game of the day in that section gets going at a quarter-to-two, with Wexford hosting Laois.

From a quarter-to-four, Cork and Waterford clash at Pairc Ui Chaoimh in Division 1A.

Seamus Power and Shane Lowry begin their final rounds from five and six over respectively.



Seven birdies and an eagle in 13 holes has propelled Niall Kearney up the leaderboard on the final day at the Canary Islands Championship on the European Tour.
