How to find what channel the football is on tonight
Start with the competition, not the team: the broadcaster owns the rights to a whole competition, so once you know it is a Champions League night or a Sunday Premier League game, the channel follows. Sky and TNT announce their picks about four to six weeks ahead, which is why "what time is the football on tomorrow" can usually be answered from the slot table above.
Premier League matches moved for TV appear in Sky Sports and TNT Sports schedules and in the 7-day programme guide inside your IPTV app. Matches that stay at 3PM on a Saturday are not shown live in the UK; see our guide to Saturday 3PM kick-offs.
If you want every channel above in one place, a Streamelio plan includes Sky Sports, TNT Sports, Premier Sports and the BBC channels with a 7-day guide, from £10 for a month or £3.75 a month on 12 months.
