Hey up mate,I'm an oldie so don't bother with town these days. So here goes for a bit of info,travelodge just off city centre,literally four or five min walk to nightlife,you've got Weatherspoons three doors round the corner from you.
The Westgate run is a run of around 8 drinking pubs where you only have to walk twenty yards before you hit another,if you set off at the beginning which is the Westgate redoubt around 6pm you'll be hitting Westgate which is the flashing lights bit around nine o'clock,ready for clubs.
Keep your head down and walk away from knobs and you'll be fine.
Can't help with the football as we live around 4 miles away but just take note as you walk round and someone will advertise it,thing there's a sports bar at the traffic lights. Enjoy but hop you go home miserable after the game!!!
