How to watch England on TV & stream live
A new player has emerged on the scene when it comes to England coverage in 2022, with Channel 4 wrestling some rights away from more established broadcasters in the sports market.
ITV have seen ties severed with the Three Lions outside of major tournaments, while Sky Sports continues to focus more on club competition than international matters – with England in the Nations League slipping through their net.
Coverage of the World Cup finals will continue to be split between BBC and ITV, which are free-to-air in the UK, with both competing for an audience in the final itself – which England will be hoping to grace this time around for the first time since 1966.
All of the Three Lions’ fixtures in the Nations League will be shown on Channel 4, alongside their All 4 streaming service, with home and away games being picked up by the same broadcaster.
England’s opener at the World Cup against Iran will be shown by the BBC and iPlayer, as will a final group stage outing against the winner of a final play-off, while ITV and the new ITVX streaming service will be the place to catch a meeting with the USMNT.
