Brought to you by NOW.

It’s another huge weekend of sporting action.

There is some top-class sporting action on TV this weekend from the Premier League to Formula 1, rugby to the GAA Hurling Championship.

And here is how to stream it all with a NOW Sports and Sports Extra Membership.

Friday, April 22.

The sporting weekend gets going with Ulster v Munster in the United Rugby Championship. Ulster will be looking to bounce back with a victory following their narrow loss to Toulouse in the Heineken Champions Cup last weekend.

Munster, meanwhile, come into the game at Ravenhill after securing their place in the quarter-finals of the Heineken Champions Cup with a 34-20 win over Exeter Chiefs.

The provinces are separated by three points in the URC, so it should be a keenly-fought encounter on Friday evening.

Kick-off is at 7:35 pm and you can stream the match live with a NOW Sports Extra Membership.

Saturday, April 23

Saturday’s sporting action starts with a pivotal game in the race for the top four in the Premier League.

Arsenal host Manchester United at the Emirates, and you can stream it with a NOW Sports Extra Membership. Only a win for either side will keep their Champions League hopes alive.

Manchester City play Watford at 3 pm. And, with Liverpool putting pressure on Man City and Watford deep in relegation trouble, both sides know that only a win will suffice. You can stream the game from the Etihad Stadium with a NOW Sports Extra Membership.

Elsewhere in the Premier League on Saturday, you can watch Brentford v Tottenham Hotspur with a NOW Sports Membership, with kick-off at 5:30 pm.

GAA fans are in for a treat on Saturday, with a Hurling Championship double-header.

First up, in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship, Dublin play Wexford, with throw-in from Wexford Park at 5 pm.

All-Ireland champions Limerick then face Waterford at the Gaelic Grounds in the Munster Hurling Championship, with throw-in at 7 pm.

You can stream both games live with a NOW Sports Membership.

Sunday, April 24.

There are two live Premier League games on Sunday and both are available to stream with a NOW Sports Membership.

Chelsea face off against West Ham United in a London derby. The match between the two rivals, which could prove vital in the battle for European places, kicks off at 2 pm.

After the game at Stamford Bridge, the focus switches to Anfield, where Premier League title-chasers Liverpool, fresh from hammering Man United 4-0, play relegation battlers Everton in the Merseyside derby. Kick-off is at 4:30 pm.

Formula 1 also returns this weekend with the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

You can stream the practice and qualifying sessions, and Sunday’s race, live with a NOW Sports Membership. The big race gets underway on Sunday at 2 pm, with practice and qualifying on Friday and Saturday.
