It’s a battle between two top-10 squads in the Premier League standings as Aston Villa hosts Chelsea from Villa Park in Birmingham, England. Aston Villa enters the game with 39 points, while Chelsea sits above the Lions with 43 points. The two teams last played in December, with Chelsea blanking Aston Villa by a score of 3-0.

Aston Villa cannot buy a Premier League win with four draws and one defeat in their last five contests. January 15 was the date of Aston Villa’s last Premier League victory. Time is running out for the Lions to make a push into the top five. Meanwhile, Chelsea has to be happy to see a team other than Brighton. The Blues lost consecutive games to Brighton, including last weekend’s head-scratching 3-0 defeat. Chelsea has been fading ever since they climbed to second place in the standings back in December.

Mississippi State vs. Alabama: How to watch, results, and highlights

Fans watch the basketball game inside Coleman Coliseum.

The Battle for Highway 82 hits the hardwood as the Mississippi State Bulldogs (19-8) head to Tuscaloosa to face the Alabama Crimson Tide (22-5). The SEC continues to be a gauntlet this season. The Bulldogs are a top-25 basketball team, yet they can't even crack the top-7 within their conference. The Tide are tied for second in the SEC with Florida, as top-ranked Auburn remains in first place.
After two ranked wins against Ole Miss and Texas A&M, the Bulldogs were upset by the Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday. While the loss won't derail their tournament chances, it will impact their seeding. Meanwhile, the Crimson Tide snapped their two-game losing streak with an impressive 96-83 victory over Kentucky. Good luck beating Alabama when they make over 10 3-pointers per game.

With just under two weeks remaining in the regular season, many teams will be jockeying for positions before the conference tournaments. Find out how to watch the game between the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide. Read our NCAA men's basketball March to the Madness guide for more coverage.

Houston vs. Texas Tech: How to watch, results, and highlights

Kelvin Sampson of Houston stands and stares on the sidelines.

It's "Big Monday" in college basketball, and with a name like that, there must be a gigantic game. Luckily, the phrase holds true, as the Houston Cougars (23-4) travel to Lubbock to face the Texas Tech Red Raiders (21-6). Both teams are peaking at the right time and enter the game ranked inside the top 10. Texas Tech is one of the few teams to beat Houston, as the Red Raiders pulled off a one-point overtime victory over the Cougars on February 1.
Since the Texas Tech loss, Houston has won six consecutive games, including Saturday's 68-69 win over Iowa State. The Cougars are relentless on the defensive end and will give teams trouble in March. Speaking of the Red Raiders, Grant McCasland will have Texas Tech in the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season.
The winner of this game will gain a competitive advantage heading into the Big 12 Tournament, where they could face off in the championship.

Basketball players on the court at Memorial Coliseum.

It's a Sunday showcase in women's college basketball. Flau'jae Johnson and the No. 7 LSU Tigers (26-2) take on Georgia Amoore and the No. 14 Kentucky Wildcats (21-4). LSU and Kentucky are ranked third and fourth in the SEC. This will be the only matchup in the regular season between the two squads.
Last weekend, LSU stumbled and lost to Texas 65-58. It was the Tigers' first loss since January 24. Like every Kim Mulkey team, LSU bounced back and defeated Georgia 79-63 earlier this week. Similar to LSU, Kentucky also lost to Texas last week. The Wildcats enter Sunday's game on a two-game winning streak, with their most recent victory coming on Thursday against Missouri.
LSU and Kentucky will make the NCAA Tournament. Both teams still have an outside chance of securing a No. 1 seed. However, that dream will end with a loss on Sunday.
