Sky Sports and the EFL are about to deliver the biggest shakeup to the lower-league calendar in years. Are you ready for it?
A new broadcast deal comes into effect next season, whereby Sky will take ownership of the streaming of EFL games.
More than 1,000 matches a year will be shown on the new Sky Sports + platform, with the old iFollow club streaming system turned off for UK audiences.
The Saturday 3pm slot will remain almost entirely off-limits as part of the blackout rule designed to protect the football pyramid, although every EFL opening-day fixture will be shown, as the legislation only covers matches taking place during the regular Premier League campaign.
