Why some 3pm Saturday matches are not on TV
14 matches in the next week kick off between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on a Saturday (Saturday 7 November). UK broadcasting rules stop any of them being shown live in the UK, on any channel, so they are left off this page rather than listed as missing.
Where these listings come from
Matches and channels come from published fixture listings, checked against the Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Freeview schedules for the same week. Highlights and radio commentary come from the Freeview and BBC listings. Amazon Prime Video, DAZN and Premier Sports are only partly covered, so a match missing here may still be on somewhere. Channel assignments for later rounds are often announced only a week or two ahead.
