Who is commentating and where to watch: Adam Carruthers and the world feed guide for Chelsea v Tottenham Hotspur

On Thursday 24 October 2026, the English Premier League returns to action with a classic London-on-London clash, as Chelsea take on Tottenham Hotspur. The match kicks off at 17:30 UK time, and there is plenty of commentary on offer from across the world feed, Sky Sports and a string of other channels. The Astro GO, Astro Grandstand HD, Astro Premier League HD and Astro Sports UHD channels carry the broadcast, presented by Adam Carruthers, with the world feed commentators filling in the main and co-commentator roles.

For those who prefer the BBC, the BBC Final Score programme is presented by John Murray and John Southall, while BBC RADIO 5 LIVE, the BBC Sounds App and BBC Sport Online deliver the audio experience. There, Mark Chapman presents, with John Murray as main commentator and Robert Green as co-commentator, and John Southall reporting.

The world feed and the Astro channels

The world feed brings its two most trusted voices back to the mic, with Jon Champion taking the main commentator role and Andy Townsend providing co-commentary. These two have built up a reputation over many years of watching England's Premier League, and their partnership remains a staple for viewers who want a familiar pair covering the full match.

The Astro channels mirror this approach, with Adam Carruthers presenting and the world feed commentators filling in the commentary. He has a substantial career behind him: as he describes it, he is a host with a vast array of experience leading him to his current position covering the Premier League for Malaysian viewers. From hosting live terrestrial TV at the age of 18, he has branched out to be a radio announcer for Malaysia's number one destination. That background makes him a fitting figure to anchor the Astro broadcast.

The Sky Sports lineup

Sky Sports is well represented across the board. The Sky Sports Main Event HD, Sky Sports Main Event UHD and Sky Sports Premier League HD channels are presented by Kelly Cates, with Bill Leslie as main commentator and Gary Neville as co-commentator. They are joined by two further pundits: Jamie Redknapp and Daniel Sturridge, while Patrick Davison handles reporting.

The Sky Sports News and HD channels add a third pair of reporters, with James Savundra and Michael Bridge alongside Patrick Davison. For those who follow the highlights reel, the Sky Sports highlights channel carries the commentary from Bill Leslie and Gary Neville.

The world feed's supporting players

Several world feed pundits bring their own experience to the table. Scott Minto, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Brad Friedel all feature across the various channels. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has a notable pedigree as a former Netherlands striker and assistant coach with England, having worked alongside Gareth Southgate's player in the past. Brad Friedel is known as a US goalkeeping legend, while Scott Minto has a long history as a Premier League commentator and has appeared on the world feed in previous seasons.

Other channels and feeds

The FlashScore audio, FlashScore App and Flashscore UK channels bring commentary from Feargal Brennan. The NBC USA feed, including the NBC App, NBC USA HD and Peacock USA channels, is presented by Rebecca Lowe, with Peter Drury as main commentator and Lee Dixon as co-commentator, supplemented by the punditry of Robbie Mustoe and Tim Howard.

Other channels round out the options. SpursPlay carries commentary from Rob Daly, while beIN Sports MENA English 1 HD uses the world feed commentators with Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink providing punditry and Carrie Brown reporting. talkSPORT is covered by Ian Abrahams, and the talkSPORT Ireland feed is presented by Trevor Welch.

With such a wide range of channels and commentators available, viewers have plenty of ways to follow the Chelsea v Tottenham Hotspur match on Thursday. Whether you prefer the world feed, Sky Sports, the BBC or one of the many regional and audio feeds, there is a commentator for you.
