All football fans love a tight title race and it’s a big week for some of the most intriguing leagues this season. There are crucial clashes guaranteed to be tense and thrilling among the packed schedule of live sport on Virgin TV this week (Monday 27 March to Sunday 2 April).

The season has reached boiling point in Germany thanks to Borussia Dortmund’s incredible form – 28 points from a possible 30 since the league’s restart in January – and this Saturday they take on defending champs Bayern, with just a point between the two. That’s live on Sky Sports, while on BBC Two there’s a crunch game in the WSL between Arsenal and Man City, two of the four clubs separated by just three points as they fight for the title (and just three European places).

Man City’s men are in action against Liverpool on BT Sport as they try to reel in Arsenal in the Premier League, while in the men’s A-League Western Sydney and Adelaide United – battling to catch Melbourne City – meet at the CommBank Stadium. There’s a chance to see one of the most impressive teams in Europe this year as Serie A leaders Napoli face last season’s winners AC Milan. And while it’s not a huge game in the context of this season, the clubs’ names mean Angers v Nice is one of our favourite fixtures. 

Europe and South Africa’s top rugby clubs return to action in the Champions Cup, with seven live matches to enjoy on BT Sport and ITV1. There’s rugby union and league and Aussie rules from the southern hemisphere as well, plus Super League action on Sky Sports and Channel 4 and women’s Six Nations on the BBC.

Cricket comes from New Zealand and South Africa, while for fans of whacking a fast-moving ball with a slightly differently shaped bat, the new Major League Baseball season begins as the Yankees host the Giants.

There’s basketball from the NBA, BBL, EuroCup and NCAA, Tour Championship snooker, horse racing, golf, netball, boxing and a huge weekend of motorsport featuring the F1 Australian GP and the MotoGP of Argentina. All in all, another superb week of live sport on Virgin TV.
