Get ready to enjoy a bumper football-filled festive period over the next couple of weeks and you won’t miss a match with our unique Christmas TV guide.
With matches from the Barclays Premier League, Sky Bet Football League, Scottish Premiership, Scottish Championship, FA Cup Third Round and many more, there are plenty of reasons for football fans to be jolly over the festive season.
Two of the big pre-Christmas head-to-heads kicks off in the north east as Newcastle United and Sunderland renew hostilities in the Tyne-Wear derby on Sunday, December 21, with Liverpool’s clash with Arsenal at Anfield comes hot on the heels of that clash, both exclusively live on Sky Sports.
The Magpies have failed to beat Sunderland in their last five attempts and go into this match looking to end a three-game losing run against the Black Cats, while Arsenal will be eager to erase memories of their last trip to Anfield, when the Gunners went into the game as league leaders but found themselves 4-0 down inside the opening 20 minutes.
A bumper Boxing Day of live football begins on Sky Sports at lunchtime with Chelsea hosting West Ham in what should be a fascinating London derby against Sam Allardyce’s flourishing side, followed by a Premier League double-header on BT Sport as Manchester United host Newcastle United, followed by Arsenal’s home match against QPR.
Another Premier League triple-header follows on Sunday, December 28, featuring Tottenham’s lunchtime kick-off against Manchester United on BT Sport.
Then just a few hours after the chimes have sounded to signify the start of 2015, five more live TV games will help ease your New Year’s hangover, featuring the London derby between Tottenham and Chelsea on BT Sport.
The festive period concludes on the opening weekend of 2015 with one of the undoubted highlights on the football calendar – the Third Round Proper of the FA Cup – with six ties set to be broadcast live across the BBC and BT Sport.
Added to that, there will also be plenty of top class football from Europe to feast on over the weekend before Christmas, before the Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga all take their customary winter breaks.
There will also be special editions of Match of the Day, Final Score and The Football League Show covering all the festive action on BBC TV.
Tune in and sit back this Christmas as the football fixtures calendar throws up some real crackers live across all the major UK networks.
