Your complete guide to upcoming editions of Match of the Day to soak up all the Premier League highlights.
The Premier League is back, which means normal service will resume for Match of the Day as well.
2025/26 has brought one key change to your Saturday night routine: Gary Lineker is no longer the host of the iconic highlights show on the BBC. It was first announced back in November that the 2024/25 campaign would be his last in the role, but he made an early exit due to controversy surrounding a social media post shared by Lineker.
Gabby Logan, Kelly Cates and Mark Chapman have taken the reins on a rotational basis while Match of the Day 2 has been rebranded to simply Match of the Day but will remain on Sunday evenings.
After an extended break – for international fixtures and the FA Cup quarter-finals – the Premier League resumes for the start of the run-in, with every game carrying a little extra weight at this point in the campaign.
Leaders Arsenal will be under the microscope on Saturday's show, while Chelsea v Man City is the pick of the games on Sunday.
Radio Times brings you everything you need to know about when you can get your weekly football fix through Match of the Day.
