Watch Greece v England on BBC's audio feed and ITV highlights with Vicki Sparks, Rachel Brown-Finnis and Seb Hutchinson
The FIFA Women's World Cup 2027 qualifiers continue on Saturday, 10 October 2026, when Greece take on England in what promises to be a lively British-friendly. With kick-off set for 17:30 UK time, the country's sports media are once again covering the match from more than two angles, and this time both the BBC and ITV have their names attached to the line-up. Those wanting a full audio play-by-play can tune into the BBC's Radio 5 Live feed, the BBC Sounds app or the BBC Sport Online audio player, while those after a punchier highlights reel can follow ITV's coverage.
On the BBC side, commentary comes from Vicki Sparks, co-commentated by Rachel Brown-Finnis. ITV have their own pair in Seb Hutchinson and Lucy Ward, with the ITV highlights channel fronted by presenter Laura Woods. The larger ITV roster also brings Karen Carney and Anita Asante in as pundits, alongside reporter Katie Shanahan. It is a substantial house of voices for one friendly, and it echoes the BBC/ITV head-to-head format the nation has come to expect.
The BBC audio line-up
Vicki Sparks is a well-established figure in the women's football commentary circuit, having featured among the commentators for both BBC and ITV coverage ahead of Women's Euro 2025. She lines up alongside Rachel Brown-Finnis, whose career has seen her bring a tactical edge to match commentary in the past. Together they will walk listeners through the Greece vs England match on the BBC's audio channels, giving a running account as the friendly develops.
The ITV highlights roster
ITV have chosen Seb Hutchinson as their main commentator for the highlights coverage, working alongside Lucy Ward. The two have been paired for ITV's women's football coverage before, and they are joined in the wider ITV lineup by presenter Laura Woods, who fronts the studio. Pitting Seb Hutchinson and Lucy Ward against the BBC's pair makes for a natural head-to-head, with both channels covering the same friendly from different angles.
