6:30 pm
matt taylor, bbc news. and that takes us to the weather prospects. here's louise lear. i suspect that the only white christmas most of us will see will be from cloud cover. rather gray on christmas day. scotland could see a few flakes of snow. today has been quite cloudy and grey with outbreaks of light rain. snow showers into the northern isles which is where we have the colder air at the moment. this weather frontally dividing line between the very mild air which is driving in south—westerly winds at the moment. we have reign some of it heavy pushing into western scotland. as it bumps into that coal there we will see snow through the night. 2-10 will see snow through the night. 2—10 centimetres possible. the
6:31 pm
temperature here at the ground one degree. but elsewhere a mild start for many, heavy rain moving its way through scotland. that will gradually push the snow out of the way and across the west, with that south—westerly flow always driving and more cloud it will be rather drab and dreary at times. east of the pennines we should get breaks in the pennines we should get breaks in the cloud, some sunshine to the south—east and the temperature again mild for this time of year. most of us looking at 12—13, once again the far north—east staying on the cold side. as we move into christmas eve it will continue to be mild, even record—breaking mild, but also when they with gusts of wind at 50—70 so if you are travelling keep abreast of the forecast, tune into your local radio and we will see pulses of wet weather to the west. if we get above 15.6 it will be the warmest christmas eve on record. into christmas day, cloudy and wet
6:32 pm
and mild for most of us but we keep the cold air in the far north so here is the chance to see if you flakes of snow. thank you very much and that's bbc news at six. goodbye. hello and welcome to sportsday this friday night, i'm chetan pathak, coming up on the programme... can aston villa give their fans an early christmas present — beat sheffield united and they'll be top of the premier league tonight. no festive cheer for england's cricketers — beaten by the west indies in their t20 series decider. making all his christmas wishes come true — 16—year—old luke littler continues his fairy tale run at the pdc world championship.
6:33 pm
i have never really tried to get into college because of all of my pro talk so it has been funny because i know i will never have to go to school again. also coming up on sportsday before 7... we look ahead to a blockbuster night of boxing — can anthonyjoshua complete his rebuild mission and stay on track to fight deontay wilder... welcome along, thank you forjoining us. not many people had aston villa as their team at the top of the premier league a few days before christmas — but they could move ahead of liverpool and arsenal tonight if they beat bottom of the table sheffield united at villa park. kick off is at 8 o'clock and our football reporter john bennett is there for us...
6:34 pm
aston villa are a winning machine here and it would be 16 premier league wins in a row if they get the victory against sheffield united so it is very difficult to see how chris wilder will get anything from this game. his fourth match in charge of picking up only one win. they do seem to have improved, sheffield united since his takeover. i've seen them a few times this season, at times they can be impressive in games but it is the difference between their championship and the premier league, there is a different intensity and you can see it in games, they don't take chances, the fine margins are not going either way so it will be very difficult for them today. unai emery is doing an amazing job and they could be taught by christmas, aston villa, for the first time in 25 years. the fence here at villa park are loving what is happening the season. there is real belief that they could not only challenge for the top four, but also
6:35 pm
a win for villa might only take them top for under 2a hours because this people making comparisons with leicester city. hat people making comparisons with leicester city.— leicester city. not quite as profound- _ leicester city. not quite as profound- - _ leicester city. not quite as profound. . a _ leicester city. not quite as profound. . a real- leicester city. not quite as profound. . a real step - leicester city. not quite as profound. . a real step up| leicester city. not quite as . profound. . a real step up still leicester city. not quite as - profound. . a real step up still for unai emery, you mentioned how he has been doing, how can he turn them into title competitors? he been doing, how can he turn them into title competitors?— been doing, how can he turn them into title competitors? he talked to the -la er into title competitors? he talked to the player is _ into title competitors? he talked to the player is an _ into title competitors? he talked to the player is an i — into title competitors? he talked to the player is an i love _ into title competitors? he talked to the player is an i love working - into title competitors? he talked to the player is an i love working for i the player is an i love working for him. tactically they know what they are doing and they know their roles and he sets them up brilliantly, defensively, going forward, they are so good to watch. really at the moment. we should not be surprised, of course in the premier league, he had a difficult time, unai emery and look at what he did at villareal and sylvia, he is a broke class manager
6:36 pm
and i think he is loving the second chance he is getting in the english premier league —— world class. you can players on their toes and saying the fans can enjoy it and dream, but for the players exist about the next game in the game after that. they will be fully focused on the scheme and will not be underestimated sheffield united are and i think that aston villa are in a for an exciting 202a. that aston villa are in a for an exciting 2024.— that aston villa are in a for an exciting 2024. that aston villa are in a for an excitin: 2024. ,,. , ., , exciting 2024. same questions we asked if leicester _ exciting 2024. same questions we asked if leicester and _ exciting 2024. same questions we asked if leicester and whenever i asked if leicester and whenever there is a top surprise team at the second half of the season, can you keep it up and once you are top, staying top, the hardest challenges are to come. {iii staying top, the hardest challenges are to come-— are to come. of course in'uries will -la a bi are to come. of course in'uries will play a big part. i are to come. of course in'uries will play a big part. ollie _ are to come. of course injuries will play a big part. ollie watkins - are to come. of course injuries will play a big part. ollie watkins couldj play a big part. ollie watkins could score his 50th primary legal, if he gets injured that would be a big blow. other players on the team, they are out than they miss, pau torres missing the game tonight, but at the moment and the other player comes in and knows exactly their
6:37 pm
role, i rememberat comes in and knows exactly their role, i remember at the season there was a serious injury at the start button villa coped with it. so at the moment they are answering every question and beating top teams, arsenal, not too long ago. so at the moment villa are ahead to stay with this title race.— this title race. thank you. updates on bbc radio _ this title race. thank you. updates on bbc radio five, _ this title race. thank you. updates on bbc radio five, that _ this title race. thank you. updates on bbc radio five, that match - on bbc radio five, that match kicking off at eight o'clock. a win for villa a win for villa might only take them top for under 24 hours because this time tomorrow liverpool will be playing arsenal at anfield with whoever wins guaranteed to be top of the premier league at christmas. it's liverpool's third game in a week at anfield, after the draw against manchester united and mid—week win over west ham. managerjurgen klopp was critical of a section of fans at that game for not creating a good atmosphere — and was asked to elaborate on that today. it's not crazy, i enjoyed 99.7% of
6:38 pm
each second in that stadium. i love these people, and not different people, not other people, sometimes some are in and others are, i'm happy with everything, but it is like if he can do it better, show us. i have said something and i cannot change it, i have nothing to say about the atmosphere, unless it is that we need energy tomorrow. that is 100% true and i can't wait for the first. arsenal haven't won in their last 10 league visits to anfield — and it's arguably the ground where their title hopes floundered last season when they threw away a 2—0 lead. still for manager mikel arteta the progress is clear, with his side in the knockout stages of the champions league and leading the way in the title race — things he would easily have taken when he took over 4 years ago. iam sure i am sure i would, but we still have
6:39 pm
not won enough important things and we want to be better and more successful. there are a lot of things that we have achieved together in those four years, but thatis together in those four years, but that is things for other people with this journey together and the ones behind us as well. well that top of the table game is the focus of the latest edition of the football news show which you can watch right now on bbc iplayer. former liverpool goalkeeper david james was asked for his score prediction and reckons the midfield is where the game could be won.... is where the game could be won. go to guard i think is the key for arsenal, i think he is the out to out best player in the end of the other players have got individual qualities the likes of sarkar but odegaard pulls the strings to get the opposition into the position to control the game and i have seen manchester city do it on a number of occasions keeping quiet and then all of a sudden arsenal to have the
6:40 pm
function. if he starts they could win this 3—1. and david reyes will start with a question. with his positioning is questioning and if i'm a liverpool player trent alexander—arnold particular i will assure you funny places and possibly stories. so i will go through— when liverpool not knowing the teams course. a week after their captain tom lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest during their abandoned game at bournmouth — luton town will take to the field again tomorrow with newcastle the visitors at kenilworth road. speaking for the first time since the incident, luton boss rob edwards is expecting an emotionally charged game. lockyer�*s now recuperating having had an icd device fitted in his chest which helps to restore a regular heart rhythm when needed. james burridge reports. rob edwards speaking to the media after a distressing few days. that moment his captain tom lockyer collapse on the pitch for the second

6:44 pm
40 seconds injeddah — a miscued clearance from marcelo went straight to nathan ake, he was allowed to shoot, and as the ball rebounded off the post, julian alvarez improvised to give city the lead. they've since made it two after a phil foden shot was deflected in off brazilian defender nino. england's cricketers have fallen short in completing a stunning comeback in their t20 series in the west indies. having fought back after losing the first two matches — last night's decider ultimately went against them, but onlyjust as our sports correspondent joe wilson reports. it is always a precarious business, but however simple they make it look. phil salt resumed his big hitting in this decisive match. easy, well it's not. west indies tightened up their new bowling and excelled with their fuelling. this hit so hard andre russell rest his fingers to catch it. in the evening, west indies only needed 133. who would be the series winner. not sherfane rutherford come out for 30
6:45 pm
brilliantly held by sam curran. only 11 he did after the last 12 balls, andre russell only found livingston. 19th over only went for two. but when shai hope threw his band he did it with certainty. victory with four balls to spare. two teams looking for their revival. west indies seemed closer. and this will definitely help. time now for some other sports stories. sydney sixers didn't need banned england all rounder tom curran to win their latest game in the big bash league. their match at home to adelaid strikers went down to the last ball. england's jamie overton needing a boundary for the win, but came up just short handing the sixers victory by one run. world rugby's record cap—holder alun wynjones has revealed he was diagnosed with a heart condition as his career drew to a close. he's called for players to be screened for heart issues more often after undergoing tests before finishing his career at toulon last month. uruguay striker luiz suarez has

fight night away from heavyweights anthonyjoshua and deontay wilder finally facing each other next year. what happens tomorrow night in saudi arabia could decide that. joshua, now 34, faces sweden's otto wallin and on the same bill — is deontay wilder — who'll be fighting joseph parker on a huge night of boxing in riyadh. steve bunce is there for us. let's start with anthonyjoshua — 18 months ago when he lost to oleksander usyk for a second time some people were saying he was finished — how do you sum up his rebuild across the past year and a half and his challenge tomorrow night? the rebuild has been gradual, slow and methodical and i have liked it because they have notjumped straight back in. he has had two wins since that particular loss and they were not spectacular. just nice and slow. and in the build up here, i have seen an old dj. in a day i

saw five or six years ago and when i use the word that people don't like musing about boxing, i have seen a nasty anthonyjoshua and that is the macro and i like. it's also a contradiction in terms, no more kissing babies heads, at this time for a nasty anthonyjoshua to re—emerge. for a nasty anthony joshua to re-emerge-— for a nasty anthony joshua to re-emerue. , ~ ., , re-emerge. sounds like mentally usina re-emerge. sounds like mentally usin: a re-emerge. sounds like mentally using a different _ re-emerge. sounds like mentally using a different place. _ re-emerge. sounds like mentally using a different place. he - re-emerge. sounds like mentally using a different place. he says l re-emerge. sounds like mentally using a different place. he says if i do not get past this, there no future. is it all over if he loses tomorrow night? it future. is it all over if he loses tomorrow night?— tomorrow night? it is not necessarily _ tomorrow night? it is not necessarily all _ tomorrow night? it is not necessarily all over - tomorrow night? it is not necessarily all over but i tomorrow night? it is not necessarily all over but ifj tomorrow night? it is not - necessarily all over but if you were to lose, to deontay wilder, a very live opponent and last year he pushed tyson fury over 12 rounds. it's not as if his career is over if he loses, but it is a long way up. what's more, possibly not the a side. you're probably going into negotiations knowing for the first time in anthonyjoshua's career that a man in the opposition corner is

6:55 pm
have not been eating a lot of kebabs. so looking to add another trophy. keep across the latest on bbc radio five. aston villa against sheffield united at eight o'clock kick—off. regular updates on five alive. a win for villa would take them top of the table. for now, at that's all from sportsday. hello there. full christmas forecast coming up in just a moment, first of all, i thought we'd start off with these rare nacreous clouds that are once again being spotted overhead in the uk. these form really high in the earth's atmosphere — between 13 and 19 miles above the ground. that's two or three times the height of which aeroplanes fly at and you need temperatures in this part of the atmosphere to be at —78 celsius or even colder. normally, that really
6:56 pm
cold air is concentrated around our polar regions, but right now it's moved a bit further southwards. and it's cold enough across the uk for next week or two to see some of these rare clouds. best chance before sunrise or just after sunset, so eyes to the skies. further down in the atmosphere, we've got this mild flow of air to take us through the rest of the night. it will be quite a damp night across western areas. some heavy rain for western scotland. as that rain band bumps into the cold air across northern scotland, some of it turns to snow. could bring some disruption here as we head into the first part of saturday morning. 2 to 10 centimetres possible, the larger amounts over the hills. if you're planning a journey maybe set out later in the day because it will eventually turn milder, the snow eventually will turn back to rain. lots more rain to come across western scotland. it's been a very wet month for these areas and so this extra rain could bring some flooding concerns. some damp weather elsewhere in the west of the uk. best chance of any cloud breaks east wales, the midlands, east anglia and southern parts of england. for most it will be quite a mild day. saturday night sees heavy rain set up across mid—wales, could bring
6:57 pm
some localised flooding here. it's also been another part of the world where we've seen more rain than average so far this month. sunday, which is christmas eve, another big travel day and it's going to be a windy day, particularly for western and northern scotland over and to the east of the pennines — where we could get gusts of wind of 50 to 70 miles an hour. those stronger gusts could knock down a few high sided vehicles, maybe even blow over one or two trees. so the message, if you're planning a journey on christmas eve, check conditions out on the roads and the railways before heading out. there could be some disruption. christmas day, monday, we've got these south—westerly winds, mild air across vast majority of the uk. so not a white christmas for most of you. a gray, cloudy, wet and windy christmas for many. the one exception really is across the far north of scotland, where we still have that colder air with us. some of the rain could start to turn to snow over the hills here. so forjust one or two of you, it might yet be a white christmas. bye for now.
6:58 pm
could be close to the christmas eve record. a mild and when they day on christmas eve, christmas day looks likely to be a wet affair at times with outbreaks of rain and as we move into boxing day, the
