When are the FA Cup fifth round TV ties announced?

The FA Cup TV schedule should be confirmed by the end of the week (Friday, February 20).

How many TV games will there be?

Last season seven of the eight ties were televised live. This is the first year of a new FA Cup TV deal and it is highly likely all eight matches will be available on TV.

Will any TV games be free-to-air?

Yes. TNT Sports holds the rights to the tournament and will show all games on its main channels and discovery+ streaming service. However, it agreed a deal for the BBC to show a selection of matches so at least two of the games will be on BBC One too.

When is the FA Cup fifth round?

The FA Cup fifth round is due to be played across the weekend of Friday, March 6 to Monday, March 9.

WHEN IS THE CARABAO CUP FINAL AND WHAT CHANNEL IS IT ON?

When is the final?

The final will take place at Wembley on Sunday, March 22.

What channel is it on?

The match is live on both Sky Sports and ITV 1 in the UK.

Will Sky and ITV have their own teams covering the match?

Although Sky hold the UK TV rights for the Carabao Cup and screen every game from the competition live, they struck a deal with ITV that the free-to-air broadcaster could show ten games a season from the tournament.

ITV use Sky’s live match pictures for those games in the run-up to the final, but have their own commentators, presenters, pundits, reporters and pre and after-match coverage and their own branded graphics. However, last season for the final itself, ITV took a straight simulcast of Sky’s coverage so that could well happen again this season. It might be this is part of the agreement as having Sky’s full broadcast on ITV gives the subscription service a huge bonus of promoting its others sports and programmes to a free-to-air audience.
