Live football on TV today

A blockbuster weekend of live football on TV awaits as the domestic season heads toward its conclusion.

Arsenal will look to build on their advantage over Man City at the top of the Premier League, while it could be a defining few days for both Tottenham and West Ham in the relegation battle.

It's squeaky bum time in the three-horse Scottish Premiership title race. A Hearts victory at Motherwell could go some way to ending the Old Firm dominance north of the border, particularly given Celtic and Rangers do battle on Sunday.

There really is no drama like play-off season in the EFL and National League – and viewers can tuck into plenty of high-stakes fixtures this weekend – while the quest for silverware continues in the Women's FA Cup semi-finals.

Sky Sports boast the lion's share of football TV rights in 2025/26, including a huge number of Premier League and FA Women's Super League games, as well as a deal that will broadcast over 1,000 English Football League and Carabao Cup matches over the course of the season.

TNT Sports will show Premier League, Champions League, Europa League and Conference League action throughout next season, with all of the action available with a discovery+ Premium Monthly Pass.
