The latest EFL TV selections for the 2025/26 season have been revealed by broadcaster Sky Sports for the next few months.
The broadcast selections for the period up until to the end of September have now been confirmed, with every EFL team due to feature at least twice.
All opening weekend matches in the Championship, League One and League Two are once again set to be broadcast live on Sky Sports, along with all Carabao Cup and Vertu Trophy fixtures.
Before the 2024/25 season, we used to see most Championship teams picked a few times within two months, and barely any picks from Leagues One and Two.
Before a ball is kicked in the 2025/26 season, all TV selections will be confirmed for the period up to the FA Cup Third Round on the weekend of 10 January 2026.
You can view the full list of TV selections up until the end of September below.
EFL fixtures will be broadcast via either an existing Sky Sports channel or Sky Sports +. This has been the new way for fans to discover and stream live sport.
Integrated into the current Sky TV experience and the revamped Sky Sports mobile app, Sky Sports+ is available at no extra cost for subscribers of the full Sky Sports package.
All televised fixtures will also be available on streaming service NOW.

Twitter users reacted to the latest EFL TV selections revealed by Sky Sports…
@Biggsy1980: What is the point anymore! Absolutely fucking ridiculous. Football clubs, Leagues & Sky fucking TV won’t be happy until grounds are empty & we all watch at home. Thanks a fucking lot. Another handful of games I won’t be able to go to this is just the start. Put the fans first!
@ChrisBr08824474: Sky tv just don’t give a s**t about fans moving Saturday games to Friday nights when supporters might work shifts and have to use holidays to watch there teams. Bring back Saturday 3:00pm kick offs to all leagues!!!
@kingpowers: Sky TV is fucking shit 🎶
@Biggsy1980: Fuck off and leave game at 3 o’clock. Football for the fans.
@Raking5:
So it begins…..🙄
Coventry (H) 1230 kickoff
Bristol City (H) Friday night
Wrexham (A) 1230 kickoff
Thanks @SkySports
#DCFC
@mattmadrid1982: @SkySports absolutely ruining football for the fan that actually goes the game 🤢
@skol_ding: Fuck off @EFL and @SkySports. Literally no one gives a fuck about either team except those who would go to the game or have an ifollow pass (or whatever it’s called) anyway. And now less people will bother to show up. Load of shit these 12.30s #readingfc
@Ricey04: At least sky don’t want us on tele anymore #swfc
@The_Watts: Sky might as well rebrand as “Fuck the fans”
@Tyler7Smith: Cracking work 🤦🏻♂️ Just the 277 miles for #colu fans to do for a 12:30 kick off. 0 consideration for fans up and down the leagues again
@DonnyBladesman: Ipswich away Friday night with no trains back. Thinking of the fans as always. 👏🏻
@ValiantKyle: @SkySports congratulations, you win the biggest strings award of broadcasting. Vale Vs Cardiff – first home game on a Thursday? You can’t keep doing this to fit your stupid agenda. Football isn’t for the fans anymore and you’re playing your part in that. #efl #pvfc #bluebirds
