lizo mzimba, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's ben. a bit ofa a bit of a mixed week ahead but it doesn't mean it is all bad new, some warmth and sunshine as we saw in eastern parts of england today, in fact some north sea coasts were warmer than they were over the weekend. but, out toward the west, very different scene, a lot of cloud, rain, hammering down there in haverfordwest. as a result of this swirl of cloud. an area of low pressure and a frontal system, slow—moving so it has been raining for much of the day in the south—west, wales, northern ireland, that rain slowly pushing a bit further northwards and eastwards as we go through what will be a very mild even warm night and behind that rain band, clear skies getting into parts —— parts of wales but we will see showers breaking out here as we head through tomorrow. all things

being considered a brighter day than today, where as for of the of the eastern coasts we will see cloud and rain, rain lingeren on the north coast. northern scotland will see sunshine, that may be where we have a the highest temperatures, but generally speaking 16—20 still not bad going for this time of year, now that slow—moving weather front still just about in place on wednesday, cloud and some rain in northern england, the odd sharp shower in the south—west of scotland. 23 in the highlands, as we head through wednesday, low pressure in charge of things this week but tending to slip southwards as we head towards the end of the week, so across the northern half of the uk, there will still be a decent amount of dry weather, temperatures, parts of scotland, particularly still getting up scotland, particularly still getting up into the low 20, further south i think there be more in the way of shower, some of those on the heavy side but still bright spells in

between and not feeling too bad. that's it. i'll be back at ten, but you can keep up with all the latest coming up on bbc london this monday evening... hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm gavin ramjaun. it's between arteta and guardiola in the title race. could there be another twist? arsenal's rivals tottenham face man city tomorrow, so how many spurs fans would happily take a defeat? 50% 20%, i% 50% 20%, i% just 50% 20%, i% just give me a rough estimate in your mind. the end of era at arsenal for vivianne miedema. but where next for the all—time wsl top scorer? and england expects — with just over a month till the euros, gareth southgate talks to us about whether this time they can go all the way. also coming up on sportsday... and we speak to wales�* first female

boxing champion lauren price — adding to her glittering collection of achievements following victory in cardiff this weekend. hello there, and welcome along to sportsday. and the build up to a nervy week in the premier league title race has begun. the season will be decided on the final day — with arsenal currently top, following their win at manchester united yesterday. champions manchester city though have their fate in their own hands. and how about this for a potential twist — they take on arsenal's rivals tottenham tomorrow — leading many gunners fans praying for a favour from their arch—rivals. anything other than a city win will keep arsenal top, before the last round of matches. ben croucher reports. and then there were... how many? to teens in this title race and for

manchester city, two games between them and another premier league. if it weren't for city we will be showering arsenal for victory over manchester united and ensuring it will go down to the final day. the maths is pretty simple they are a part behind arsenal but have the game in hand again spurs when that and at home against... on sunday and any dropped points it is a vintage arsenal. you are thinking this is manchester city at the stage of the season and you would be right. 21 had been in the league at the start of the december scoring for fun of late as well but this is the but. they have never one and the lead at the tottenham hotspur is stadium. we the tottenham hotspur is stadium. - played really, really good many times in scoring when the games. but at the same to do something in this country another team has never done it so you have to do something especially exceptional, i would say. it has not happened in the premier league, never ever. we have to do it

this time so the story is in front of us so we have to accept we have not done it. it is the time to do it. , ., , ., not done it. it is the time to do it. , . , ., , it. otherwise, arsenal will be champion- — it. otherwise, arsenal will be champion. the _ it. otherwise, arsenal will be champion. the irony - it. otherwise, arsenal will be champion. the irony of - it. otherwise, arsenalwill be i champion. the irony of arsenal it. otherwise, arsenalwill be - champion. the irony of arsenal until he make doing arsenal a favour will not be lost on you. some fans will not be lost on you. some fans will not be lost on you. some fans will not be too lost if they lost to city. so could it be an odd atmosphere?— city. so could it be an odd atmoshere? ~ ., ., , city. so could it be an odd atmoshere? ~ . ., , .,, atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, ou atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, you haven't— atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, you haven't told _ atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, you haven't told me _ atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, you haven't told me see - atmosphere? what atmosphere was here, you haven't told me see you l here, you haven't told me see you think_ here, you haven't told me see you think a _ here, you haven't told me see you think a majority of the fence will want _ think a majority of the fence will want us — think a majority of the fence will want us to— think a majority of the fence will want us to not win tomorrow night. i don't _ want us to not win tomorrow night. i don't see _ want us to not win tomorrow night. i don't see it — want us to not win tomorrow night. i don't see it that way. majority of our fans— don't see it that way. majority of our fans will create the atmosphere at the _ our fans will create the atmosphere at the witt— our fans will create the atmosphere at the will of always created at our home _ at the will of always created at our home games and irrespective of the game _ home games and irrespective of the game of— home games and irrespective of the game of football is to try to win and that's— game of football is to try to win and that's what we will try to do. in the _ and that's what we will try to do. in the test — and that's what we will try to do. in the last 283 days it will all come down to the final five. city are hoping to make it. how many in a burnout? got it. —— in a row now. there's premier league action tonight too — and potentially a lot riding on the race for champions league positions. liverpool are safely

in third place come the end of the campaign, after their title challenge fell away. later, they face an aston villa team in fourth. defeat for villa could put spurs, who are fifth, back in with a shot of making the top four. liverpool bossjurgen klopp, in his final away match before leaving the club, paid tribute to his opposing number in the dugout. unai emery is one of the best we have in the business, ioo%, one wherever he was it was a success some clubs are not ready to wait he always organised a club extremely well. thejob he's doing is absolutely exceptional and we all know how important it is for a club to qualify for the league, how difficult it is to do so and that he probably very likely will do that, it is obsolete exceptional. —— absolutely. rangers have to win against dundee tomorrow night — if they're to maintain hopes of an outside chance of winning the title in scotland.

the 2—1 defeat to celtic on saturday left them six points behind their rivals — and with a goal difference inferior by seven — with both teams having two games remaining. rangers are without several key players, but they're not giving up hopejust yet. even with two losses and a draw, we are one point in the six months in this last six months. so, no, it is not a big game but we need to prove on the pitch and the results against each other and in the other games also because it is not only against each other. news in the women's super league now — and after seven years, vivianne miedema is to leave arsenal at the end of the season. the dutch international — a household name of the wsl, has set plenty of benchmarks in her career so far. she's the league's all time top scorer, with 79 goals winning the golden boot, as the season's top scorer, twice. miedema has smashed club records too. with an incredible 125 goals,

in 172 appearances. in that time, winning one wsl title, and three league cups, sincejoining from bayern munich in 2017. but she's struggled for form since returning from a serious knee injury. ourfootball reporter emma sanders told me she still has a lot to offer. some fans are a bit frustrated at the club's decision not to offer her a new contract. it was expiring in the summer so i think the club felt it was a natural and to her career there. but the main thing is she has suffered in acl injury at the end of 2022. have not quite found her form against his returning since she had not quite returned to full fitness and it was the end of her contract, it was a good time for them to look forward in i think they are eyeing up another attacker and the transfer window as well as i think they arty have their eyes on the future as well. ., ., ., ,., ., , well. you mention about that in'ury there, miedema i well. you mention about that in'ury there, miedema put i well. you mention about that in'ury there, miedema put out i well. you mention about that in'ury there, miedema put out a i well. you mention about that injury there, miedema put out a letter . well. you mention about that injury there, miedema put out a letter on j there, miedema put out a letter on social media, paying tribute to the fence as well as her team—mates acknowledging tough times as well. we know how good of a football or she is but she has found it

difficult to be on the side regularly over the last couple of seasons i think that will have paid the bully played some part in the decision of arsenal but in the later she thanked the team—mates saying that they had become like family through the tough times. but she did i mention the manager and that letter so it was an interesting one for fans to look into.— letter so it was an interesting one for fans to look into. where may she potentially end _ for fans to look into. where may she potentially end up _ for fans to look into. where may she potentially end up next _ for fans to look into. where may she potentially end up next because - for fans to look into. where may she potentially end up next because she| potentially end up next because she is still relatively young for a footballer. what is the talk of her and where she may end up after arsenal? ,, and where she may end up after arsenal? . , and where she may end up after arsenal? ,, , ., , , arsenal? she is only 27 so there is understandably _ arsenal? she is only 27 so there is understandably a _ arsenal? she is only 27 so there is understandably a lot _ arsenal? she is only 27 so there is understandably a lot of _ arsenal? she is only 27 so there is understandably a lot of interest i understandably a lot of interest around miedema but we understand that manchester city do you have big interest in her and we are expecting them to act on that when the transfer window opens, which becomes a free agent. we expect them to engage in discussions and it would not surprise me if those moved through quickly. that would be a interesting move for all parties. manchester city have been such a big rival of arsenal and the ws also

miedema will know them very well but i think her style of play, she's a very intelligent footballer and likes to play with the ball at her feet and i think it will suit city. so you can see why they are interested in her but definitely one to keep an eye on. let's have a quick look at some other football stories. more milestones for english referee rebecca welch, who has been picked to officiate the women's champions league final between barcelona and lyon later this month. earlier this season, she became the first woman to referee a premier league game bournemouth head coach andoni iraola has signed a i2—month contract extension — to keep him at the side for at least the next two years. the 41—year—old has bournemouth in 11th, with their highest points total of 48 in the premier league, during his first season in charge. everton captain seamus coleman has said he considering a new offer from the club. coleman, who has made a club—record 363 premier league appearances for the side, led a tough campaign, where the side just about managed to avoid relegation and were handed point deductions on two occasions.

just over a month until the european championship in germany. and the england manager gareth southgate will be hoping to steer his side to success this summer and will equal the number of games managed by the late sir bobby robson. southgate — along with our reporter alex howell — has been to the hospital in newcastle that treated the late england manager throughout his cancer diagnosis. he started by telling him what the expectations are for his team heading into the tournament. well, excited, which i think everybody i seemed to bump into feels the same. i think everybody knows we've got some really exciting players. gareth southgate is one of the longest—serving england managers. he has been in charge for nearly eight years. this summer, he and the squad will head to germany for his fourth major tournament. is this the most expectation you've had going into a tournament? well, i would say yes, because of what we've done in the previous tournaments.

and i think there's always expectation with england anyway, we know that. but i think there's belief within the playing group. perhaps the expectation matches the capability a little bit more than it has done historically. you have players like jude bellingham, harry kane, phil foden, ollie watkins all arguably having their best seasons they've had. good options to have, but also a problem as well, trying to fit them all in one team? well, we won't fit them all in but, yeah, they're nice problems to have. you'd rather have talent and have to make decisions based on form than not have those options. and they seem to have a really different mentality — this young group players — particularlyjude bellingham. just a few words on what you've seen from him this last year and what he's doing at real madrid. to have the impact that he's had — the number of goals, big goals, winning goals. you know, he's got an insatiable desire to win. and, you know, that mentality is possibly the thing that stands out.

we're here at the freeman hospital. why are you making a visit here today? it's a great privilege to be able to come here where sir bobby obviously came for treatment, but also had such a massive impact on the fundraising that's allowed the hospital to continue with the trials that they do. take it down... no, no, no... sir bobby, of course, huge in the north east but, of course, with his england connection as well. after the two warm—up games ahead of the euros, you're going to be on the same number of games managed as england manager, as sir bobby robson. what does that mean to you to match someone with that history in the game? he's one of the icons of english football, really, so i'm hugely proud to be mentioned in the same sentence. so gareth, it's mental health awareness week and the players

going into a tournament, they're under so much scrutiny and pressure. how much do you have to deal with the players�* mental health or consider it when you're going into a tournament like this? the live unusual lives. you know, there's a huge commitment to theirjob — an obsession at times with being the best they can possibly be. and that leads them to putting huge pressure on themselves. so clearly, when you're part of an england team, there's a lot of external noise and you've got to try to navigate your way through that. but i think, ultimately for everybody, the most important thing to control is the voice in their own head. that's the voice that can give you doubt. can cause you anxiety. we feel in a good place, but it's knock—out football and knock—out football anything can happen. a lot has been made about your future. your contract�*s expiring at the the end of the year in december, and obviously you've been linked to jobs elsewhere. do you think it'll be a talking point heading into the tournament?

well, for me, it's not an issue and never has been. i have to deliver a successful tournament for england and my focus is on how do we go a step further than we went in the last euros? it'll be very hard to leave, i'm guessing if the tournament went perfect and england win the euros. well, if that's a problem we're worried about, then i'd be very happy. and you can watch the full interview with gareth southgate on the bbc iplayer and the bbc sport website. osian roberts — part of wales' euro 2016 coaching staff — has made history — becoming the first welshman to secure promotion to italy's top league. como appointed roberts just 5 months ago — after being recommended by one of the club's owners — the france and arsenal legend — thierry henry. more now from tomos dafydd. with its breathtaking views at the foot of the alps, little wonder lake osian roberts is a

two matches at the italian open in rome were disrupted by climate activists the last 16 tie between madison keys and sorana cirstea was interrupted when two protestors wearing orange vests ran on to the court and threw confetti. others glued themselves to a stand before police and firefighters arrived. staying in rome and british number one cameron norrie lost his bid to make the last 16, losing to stefanos tsitsipas in straight sets. norrie battled hard to force a second set tie—break before eventually going down 6—2, 7—6. russian number four seed andrey rublev was knocked out by a qualifier. 104th ranked alexandre muller of france. the 27—year—old lost the first set but then won the next two for the biggest victory of his career. naomi osaka is also out. the four—time grand slam champion was beaten in straight sets in the last 16 by china's qinwen zheng. osaka is yet to get beyond the quarterfinals at any wta event since her return to the court this year after having herfirst child.

could history be about to repeat itself for rory mcilroy? after a stunning performance to clinch the wells fargo championship late last night — the world number two said he feels the �*stars are aligning' ahead of what could be an end to his ten year wait to win another major. the pga championship takes place at valhalla this week — the same venue where he took the honours back in 2014. mcilroy won his latest event on the tour by five shots, and was humble with how things have come together. i don't know what is more unbelievable, winning a pga tournament for the fourth time for getting my 22nd. when i hit some of these milestones or do these things i always think back to for example 20—year—old me playing in this tournament for the first time and if had i known back then this is how it would turn out i would not have believed you. so i time things like this happen i feel incredibly lucky

and grateful that i have the opportunity to do what i do and i was able to play got enough golf today to take advantage of that opportunity. and i've been banging this drum for the last few years but i am a way better player now than i was back then. i have not had the major record to back that up, but i've had the winds in i've done everything i need to do in the game since 2014, the only thing left to do is get another major and a win like this, going into the pga championship next week is a good way to prep for that. let’s championship next week is a good way to prep format-— to prep for that. let's see how he fares this week. _ and just before we go a reminder that there's one premier league game tonight. aston villa are hoping to get themselves into the champions league for next season. liverpool, who have already secured third spot, stand in their way at villa park. there is the aston villa boss

arriving slapping hands and shaking hands. everyone is loving it. the home game at villa park. the smoke might have to clear by then of course. everyone is loving the scenes. team news is coming up in the next few minutes on the bbc sport website and on five live where the monday night club is just about to get under way with mark chapman. it's not just it's notjust the title race that is interesting it is the race for the top four as well. this could prove a pivotal game. that's all from sportsday. keep up—to—date on the website and out. thank you for watching and we will see you soon. hello there. we've seen a real mixture of weather across the country today, across the country today. across parts of northern and eastern scotland and down the eastern side

of england, there has been some warm spells of sunshine. i've seen temperatures go to 23 degrees in a few spots, but it's a different story further southwards and westwards, with outbreaks of rain for northern ireland, wales and south—west england. the rain has all been tied in with this curl of cloud, which is an area of low pressure. these weather fronts have been particularly slow—moving, so it's been raining for most of the day for these areas and the front will continue to be slow—moving as we go through the night. eventually, the rain crawls its way across the midlands into eastern england, gets into more of scotland through the night. but it should start to ease off across parts of wales, and the south—west of england, although there could be a few showers here. temperatures overnight for most around 11 to 14 degrees. so we are looking at a mild night and a mild start to tuesday. this time, though, the rain will be pushing its way in across scotland and eastern areas of england. so that's where some of the wettest weather's going to be. a bit brighterfor northern ireland, wales and south—west england, but not dry. it will be a day of sunshine and showers for these areas and some of the showers through the afternoon could turn out to be quite heavy with an odd rumble of thunder. for many areas, temperatures

reached the upper teens. it is a bit above average for this time of year and where the sunshine comes out, it won't feel too bad. for the middle part of the week, wednesday we've still got our low pressure still in the same kind of area, still a day of sunshine and showers for many of these southern and western areas, although we could have some more persistent outbreaks of rain for eastern england. the driest, warmest weather, it's likely to be across northern scotland where the warm spots could get up to around 22 or 23 degrees celsius or so. otherwise, high teens to low twenties. again, not feeling bad where the sunshine bothers to put in an appearance. thursday, low pressure is still with us. this time we could have some lengthier heavy outbreaks of rain moving into central and eastern parts of england. but again, the driest weather is likely to be across northern scotland, where locally could see temperatures of around 22 or so. otherwise, generally our temperatures into the high teens. through friday and indeed the weekend start of next week, it's the north of the country that will have the driest and some of the warmest weather as well.

with some pockets might we see temperatures into the twenties across northern scotland for england and wales though, different story generally it's going to be quite unsettled with plenty of showers around. it's 7pm in london. this is the world today
