TNT Sports continues to deliver top-tier coverage of the Premier League in the UK, holding key broadcasting rights alongside Sky Sports.

Joining her in analysis are Owen Hargreaves, the former Bayern Munich and Manchester United midfielder who won the Champions League with both clubs, offering tactical insights from his playing days, and Joe Cole, the Chelsea legend with over 400 appearances for the Blues, known for his silky skills and now a sharp pundit dissecting attacks.
On commentary duty, Darren Fletcher brings his authoritative voice, honed over years calling games for BT Sport (now TNT) and Sky, while Ally McCoist, Scotland's record goalscorer with Rangers, provides his trademark passion and wit as co-commentator. Reporters Jules Breach and Liam MacDevitt will deliver pitch-side updates. Later, TNT Sports will air highlights with the same Fletcher-McCoist duo.
