That's not all, TNT Sports also has at least 52 Premier League games this term and is the primary broadcaster of both the men's and women's FA Cup.

It has locked in the Premier League's Saturday lunchtime kick-off, starting with Hull City v Man Utd, and will have a smattering of other games from the top flight.

Fan favourites like Laura Woods, Ally McCoist, Steven Gerrard, Peter Crouch, Owen Hargreaves, and Karen Carney will be central to the TNT Sports coverage once again.
