Sky Sports is serving up a festive feast of football as 2017 comes to a close but the action keeps coming in 2018.
A new year brings new hope and the Sky Sports cameras will track every twist and turn as you follow your side's key clashes, quest for glory or battle to survive.
From the Premier League title race, the tension of the Sky Bet EFL play-offs and the climax in La Liga, as well as the start of fresh competition for the home nations, football in 2018 on Sky Sports promises yet more unrivalled drama and emotion.
Whether you are watching on our dedicated channels at home or following on the go with the Sky Sports app, we will make sure you feel it all. Here is a taste of what's in store for football fans...
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are leading the way in the Premier League but though they head into 2018 fighting for silverware on four fronts, Jose Mourinho has warned that nearby foes Manchester United will battle for Premier League glory "until the very last match".
Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham are all tussling for a top-four spot - look out for showdowns between Arsenal and Chelsea and Liverpool and Tottenham in the opening months of the year - while Sean Dyche's Burnley are mixing it with the heavyweights; will they take their fine form into the New Year?
The scrap for survival is sure to be just as fiercely fought. Will Rafa Benitez inspire an upturn in form at Newcastle? And will a change in manager see Swansea edge towards safety?

Wigan and Luton are hoping to seal promotion from Leagues One and Two respectively, while the breathless drama of the play-offs is sure to make for an unmissable May.
