ENGLAND’s Euro and World Cup qualifying matches, friendlies and Nations League games return to ITV from Friday after the broadcaster wrestled back the live TV rights from Channel 4.

ITV will show all England’s World Cup 2026 qualifiers, all their Euro 2028 qualifiers, all Nations League games and all friendlies.

The four-year deal – struck between ITV and UEFA – covers matches both home and away and starts with Friday’s debut match for new manager Thomas Tuchel against Albania. ALL INTERNATIONAL MATCHES LISTED HERE

It means the end of Channel 4’s two-year spell as the home of England’s friendlies and qualifying games.

ITV’s deal covers at least 40 England matches, working out at about ten matches per season.

The BBC has also secured a TV deal with UEFA to cover all of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland’s international games between now at next year’s World Cup.

The BBC’s coverage starts with Scotland’s Nations League play-off match on Thursday. The games will be shown on the respective nations’ version on BBC One and on BBC iPlayer with some games also being covered on the main BBC networks too.

The BBC and ITV agreed a deal with FIFA late last year to share the rights for the 2026 and 2030 World Cups.

WHAT CHANNEL IS THE CARABAO CUP FINAL ON?

Posted on by Leave a comment

When is the Carabao Cup Final?

It’s on Sunday March 16 at Wembley Stadium with a 4.30pm kick-off.

What channel is the Carabao Cup Final on and is it being streamed anywhere?

It’s on Sky Sports Football and Sky Sports Main Event and also FREE-TO-AIR on ITV 1. Coverage starts on both channels at 3.30pm. It’s also streaming on Sky through Sky Go and NOW TV and through ITVX.

But I thought it was only on Sky?

Sky Sports holds the rights to all the EFL competitions, but it struck a deal with ITV which sees them show nine Carabao Cup games a season and ten games a season from the EFL. These are game which are shown on Sky in any case.

Although ITV will have its own presenters, pundits, reporters, commentators and on-screen graphics, the actual match coverage will use Sky’s pictures.

Sky shows more than 1,000 games a season from the EFL competitions.

Are there any Carabao Cup Final highlights on?

Yes, ITV 4 have a highlights show at 10.20pm.

FA CUP ON TV FROM NEXT SEASON

There are big changes coming to FA Cup coverage next season. TNT Sports has agreed an exclusive deal with the Football Association which will see more games shown on TV than ever before – TNT has pledged to screen every game outside the 3pm Saturday ‘blackout’ period. However, the BBC has struck an agreement with TNT to show 14 matches each season – two games from each round through to the quarter-finals as well as showing one semi-final and the final. The BBC games will also be on TNT. The final has to be made free-to-air under UK broadcast legislation as one of sport’s “protected” events.

ITV – who currently share the rights with the BBC – will have no FA Cup games from next season.
