Live on Sky Sports this month

Live on Sky Sports this month

  

The US Open, Test cricket, Formula One and the return of the Premier League – it’s all happening on Sky Sports this month. Plus a new service is bringing you more live sport than ever before

By Chris Miller, Feature Writer

This huge summer of sport continues on Sky Sports throughout August and September. The year’s final Grand Slam tennis tournament begins this month and as we face up to life in a post-Andy Murray world, we’ve got high hopes for Emma Raducanu, who’s on the comeback trail. It’s the final of cricket’s the Hundred, followed swiftly by another England Test series. There are two big Formula One races as the drivers battle for supremacy, as well as rugby league’s Magic Weekend.

 

And of course, August means the start of a new football season, and the Premier League, EFL and Bundesliga campaigns all get under way this month. You can see all the Premier League title contenders live ahead of the September international break. And as for the EFL, the viewing options are almost endless, as the new Sky Sports+ service brings you dozens of live games from the EFL and Carabao Cup.

 

Virgin TV 360 and Stream viewers can make the most of Sky Sports+ on their box with the red button or watch on the Sky Sports app. If you watch on our TiVo® or V6 box (powered by TiVo), you can watch on the app or upgrade your package. Find out all you need to know here.


Don’t forget to bookmark this page for monthly updates – and remember you can follow all the live action on Sky Sports wherever you are in the UK, as long as there’s WiFi, 3G or 4G, thanks to Virgin TV Go. Simply download the free app, which is available to all Virgin TV customers and is compatible with Android, Apple iOS, Windows 10 and PC/Mac.

 

Here’s all the action you can enjoy live on Sky Sports this month.

Football: Premier League


It’s as if it’s never been away… The Premier League is back this month and we’re straight into the thick of the action on Sky Sports. There are five live games over the opening weekend including Manchester City away at Chelsea – arguably last
season’s most and least predictable teams. Can new Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca, a protégé of City coach Pep Guardiola, mastermind a victory over his mentor? It would certainly shake things up early doors.

 

Other matches featuring potential title contenders include Aston Villa v Arsenal on 24 August and Man Utd v Liverpool on 1 September. Newcastle and Tottenham are both capable of a challenge if they can find the consistency that eluded them last season, and they meet at St James’s Park at the start of September. And could the likes of Crystal Palace or Bournemouth make a charge into the European places after serious improvement in 2023/24? We can feel it building – the thrilling anticipation that comes only with the start of the Premier League. Here we go.

Football: Scottish Premiership

They may have won 12 of the past 13 titles but Celtic are not about to start resting on their laurels, and they’ll be aiming to hit the ground running this season. You can check on their early progress on Sky Sports with live away games at Hibs and St Mirren. Neither team got any joy against the Bhoys last term, losing every time they faced them, but a new campaign brings new hope. St Mirren in particular have raided the EFL for some smart signings, and boss Stephen Robinson will aim to give the champions a scare.

 

The first Old Firm game of the new season comes on 1 September, and after Rangers improved significantly following the appointment of Phlippe Clement midway through last season, the blue half of Glasgow will expect the title race to be closer in 2024/25. They’ve made some intriguing signings, including Brazilian left back Jefté, and secured Ivory Coast midfielder Mohamed Diomande on a permanent deal after a successful loan. They’ll have to get past new Celtic keeper Kasper Schmeichel, who brings masses of top-flight experience to the team.

Football: EFL Championship

Sky Sports’ coverage of the EFL is hugely expanded this season with the advent of Sky Sports+, available to all Sky Sports subscribers at no extra cost. Fans of Championship teams will see their club featured at least 20 times during the season, and from day one there’s a packed schedule of live matches.

 

The big question is: can Leeds do it this season? Despite a talented squad and some periods of blistering form in 2023/24, they’re still in the second tier, and patience with coach Daniel Farke isn’t infinite – from board or fans. They kick off against fellow promotion hopefuls West Brom. Coventry City had the nation’s sympathy last season after the narrowest of FA Cup semi-final defeats but Mark Robins and co would no doubt prefer a sustained challenge in the Championship. And of course the relegated teams – Burnley, Luton and Sheffield United – will be among the strongest squads. It’s all to play for, and you can see it all play out live on Sky Sports.

Football: EFL League One


League One fans will also benefit from Sky Sports’ greater live coverage. The division is full of big clubs who we’re sure were in the Premier League about five minutes ago – Birmingham, Bolton, Reading, Wigan – but there’s little doubt about which team will be attracting the most attention. After successive promotions, Wrexham are back at this level for the first time in almost two decades, and their celebrity owners have made no secret of their ambition to climb even higher.

 

Those who’ve watched the documentary series Welcome To Wrexham will be familiar with keeper Arthur Okonkwo, now signed on a permanent deal, and the club have brought in more players with experience higher up the league including defender Lewis Brunt from Leicester. Can they make a serious challenge? Well, manager Phil Parkinson has won promotion from League One twice before, with Colchester and Bolton. They start their campaign at home to Wycombe on Sky Sports+.

Football: EFL League Two

Sky Sports has much more coverage of League Two than ever before as well, thanks to the new Sky Sports+ service. The first team to feature are promoted Chesterfield, who will be hoping to “do a Wrexham” and continue their upward trajectory after six years outside the EFL. They face Swindon on 9 August, and then the rest of the first round of matches are live on Sky Sports too, including new boys Bromley at Harrogate and defeated play-off finalists Crewe away to Barrow. Doncaster, who put together an incredible run at the end of last season to go from 20th in March to a play-off place, will start at home to Accrington as they look to continue that form.

Football: EFL Cup

It’s Wrexham again. After their memorable FA Cup exploits in 2022/23, when they lost to Sheffield United in a replay after a thrilling 3-3 draw at the Racecourse Ground, they’ve drawn the Blades in the EFL Cup (aka Carabao Cup) this term. But there are plenty of interesting ties, including a local derby between two newly promoted teams as Derby host Chesterfield, an all-Yorkshire clash between Sheffield Wednesday and Hull, and a meeting of two of the best-supported sides in the Championship as Middlesbrough visit Leeds.

 

Every game of the EFL Cup this season is live on Sky Sports with Sky Sports+, so you can choose whichever match you want, or flick between them to catch the best of the action. The second round is on 27 and 28 August so keep an eye out for the draw.

Football: Bundesliga

The shockwaves are still reverberating around Bavaria as for the first time in 12 years, Bayern failed to win the Bundesliga title – despite adding the firepower of Harry Kane, who scored 36 goals in 32 league matches. They’ll be extra determined to return to the peak as soon as possible, and have shown their ambition by splashing over €100 million on two of the Premier League’s most eye-catching performers: Michael Olise from Crystal Palace and João Palhinha from Fulham.

 

The good news for Bayer Leverkusen as they look to build on their title win is that they’ve held on to all their key players – at the time of writing, anyway – as well as talismanic coach Xabi Alonso, who’s committed to the club for at least another year. They’ll kick off the new season away at Mönchengladbach, who flirted alarmingly with relegation last term. You can see promoted St Pauli, the cult club playing their first Bundesliga season in 13 years, away to Union Berlin on 30 August.

Tennis


The tours head for North America this month, with hard-court tournaments in Montréal, Toronto, Cincinnati, North Carolina and Monterrey, Mexico, ahead of the big one – the US Open, which begins on 26 August. Novak Djokovic and Coco Gauff will be defending their singles titles after mixed fortunes at the Olympic Games but perhaps the most scrutiny will be on two players who didn’t go to Paris 2024.

 

Men’s world number one Jannik Sinner took time off after his Wimbledon quarter-final defeat and will be hungry to add this Grand Slam title to the Australian Open he won in January. Emma Raducanu skipped both Wimbledon and Paris to focus on getting back in shape for the tournament she won in 2021. The British player is rising up the rankings following some successes over the summer – could she make an impact at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center? Tune in to Sky Sports Tennis and Sky Sports+ to find out.

Cricket: Men’s Internationals

Sri Lanka are in England this month to play their first Test matches in the UK since 2016. They’re not exactly an unknown quantity, sitting two places above England in the World Test Championship table. But in the period covered they’ve played just four Tests to England’s 13, and while captain Dhananjaya De Silva is an experienced Test batsman, he has only a handful of games as skipper under his belt.

 

England dominated the West Indies for all but a couple of sessions in their three-test series earlier this summer, but the Sri Lankans should provide more of a challenge. New strike bowler Gus Atkinson will look to continue his success in the matches at Old Trafford, Lord’s and the Oval. In September, the Australians arrive for T20 and ODI matches.

Cricket: The Hundred


Both the Oval Invincibles teams began the Hundred season as if they were determined to live up to their nickname. Inspired by Aussie spinner Adam Zampa, the men’s side saw off Birmingham Phoenix at home and Welsh Fire away, while Paige Scholfield and Alice Capsey starred with the bat in convincing wins over the same opponents. They’ve both been champions before – the women’s team twice, the men’s last year – and the rest of the squads are going to have a job to stop them in 2024. There’s fast-paced, six-smashing action from the Hundred on Sky Sports every day until 15 August, with the finals on 18 August.

Cricket: T20 Blast

September brings the return of the T20 Blast and it really is a quickfire blast of matches, with the quarter-finals taking place over a single week and the finals the following Saturday. Somerset, the defending champions, face a trip to Northampton to face a Steelbacks side who won their final three games in the North Group and will aim to continue that form. There hasn’t been a Blast winner from the North group since 2020 and Northants will be keen to put their name on the trophy, which they last won in 2016. Surrey are the bookies’ favourites, but curiously – despite their wealth and domestic success in other competitions – have not won this tournament since its first staging in 2003.

Motorsport: Formula One


Strange things are afoot in Formula One. We’d got used to Max Verstappen victory after Max Verstappen victory, so it was a shock to see that end. But the last two races have thrown up all sorts of odd occurrences. In Hungary, McLaren’s Lando Norris was leading as the chequered flag beckoned, only to grudgingly give way on team orders to his team-mate Oscar Piastri, who scored his first Grand Prix win. Then in Belgium, George Russell crossed the finish line first for what he thought was his second win of the season only to be disqualified thanks to an underweight car, with the win handed to Lewis Hamilton. Absolute, as they say, scenes.

 

This rash of non-Verstappen race winners hasn’t obscured the fact that the Dutchman still has a healthy lead at the top of the drivers’ standings, but his Red Bull clearly isn’t as reliable as it’s been. He was relegated 10 places down the grid in Belgium because the team elected to take a fifth different engine following problems, which exceeded the prescribed limit. Verstappen is still the favourite – but his travails will give his rivals hope as they head for Zandvoort and Monza.

Motorsport: IndyCar

Defending champ Álex Palou is leading the IndyCar driver standings but with five rounds of the championship to go, he’s not out of reach of the chasing pack – and he hasn’t won any of the last four races. The Antipodean pair of Will Power, who beat Palou into second place at the Iowa Speedway, and Scott Dixon are doing their best to breathe down the Spanish driver’s neck but they’ll need to put big points on the board quickly, starting in Illinois. There could be fireworks in the final few races.

Golf


The men’s majors and the Olympic medals are done and dusted, which just leaves one major championship: the Women’s Open, which takes place on the Old Course at St Andrews at the end of August. Last year’s winner Lilia Vu will be among the favourites again, while you certainly wouldn’t rule out world number one Nelly Korda and Australia’s in-form Hannah Green. But could it be time for a British winner of this tournament for the first time since Georgia Hall in 2018? Charley Hull was runner-up last year and has a solid record in this year’s majors. It could be her time.

 

Preceding this huge competition is the Women’s Scottish Open at Dundonald Links in Ayrshire, while there’s plenty of action from the men’s tours too, including the PGA’s Tour Championship from East Lake club in Georgia and the British Masters at the Belfry.

Rugby League: Super League XXIX


There’s magic in the air… Yep, it’s time for Magic Weekend, that heaven on Earth for rugby league aficionados, when all 12 teams in the Super League play at the same venue over the course of two action-packed days. This year it’s the turn of Leeds’ Elland Road to host, and that means the Rhinos get a prime Saturday night slot to take on pace-setters Warrington Wolves, preceded by the always massive derby clash between St Helens and Wigan.

 

The league has been unpredictable this season, with no one able to dominate, the leading teams taking points off each other and the odd shock result like Leigh’s 46-4 thrashing of St Helens. The one thing we can be sure of is that London Broncos and Hull FC will be propping up the table. When they met in May, the Broncos scored their only win of the season so far. Can they repeat that win on Magic Weekend? Tune in to find out.

Rugby League: NRL Men’s

Melbourne Storm, Penrith Panthers and Sydney Roosters have already qualified for the finals, with the Sharks about to join them, so the intrigue lies further down the table around the final few qualifying places. The face-off between the Bulldogs and Dolphins on 17 August could be a crucial one, while the Raiders – among a clutch of teams looking to gatecrash the top eight – are in action against the Sea Eagles and Cowboys this month, live on Sky Sports.

Rugby League: NRL Women’s

In the women’s NRL, it was the Raiders who got off to the best start, as the team from the ACT thumped Wests Tigers 32-12. The Sharks and Titans made winning starts too – as did the Eels, and their 22-10 victory away to Brisbane was all the more impressive considering they won just a single game last season. Could their fortunes be turning around? They’re featured live on Sky Sports four times this month, so you can keep a check on their progress as long as you don’t mind the odd early start/late night. If you’re looking for a team who play at a more reasonable time, the Dragons have two 9.10am kick-offs.

Rugby Union: Rugby Championship


Four giants of rugby union face off again to establish southern hemisphere supremacy, and it’s live on Sky Sports starting this month. This became a four-nation tournament in 2012 and – to no one’s great surprise – the All Blacks have won 10 of the 12 titles since. South Africa may be double world champions, beating New Zealand in the 2023 final to defend their title, but they just can’t find a way past their great rivals in this competition. Could this be the year that changes? Don’t miss the top-quality rugby this month – and pay close attention to what times the games start, because they’re all over the place thanks to all the different time zones.

Rugby Union: NZ NPC

New Zealand’s National Provincial Championship is often rated one of the most entertaining competitions in the world by rugby fans. It takes place over a relatively short period (August to October) and many of the players are taking time away from their main employment by Super Rugby teams, so there’s a perception that they’re under less pressure and more able to focus on fast, free-flowing rugby. But don’t make the mistake of thinking it’s amateurish – it’s a fully professional, high-commitment contest. Last season Wellington topped the table but lost out in the play-offs, and it was Taranaki who went on to claim the prize. The live coverage of the 2024 campaign starts this month on Sky Sports.

Rugby Union: Currie Cup

The Blue Bulls (based in Pretoria) and Cheetahs (Bloemfontein) have been the dominant teams in South Africa’s Currie Cup in recent years, winning four of the past five titles between them (two apiece). And they’ve made successful starts to the 2024 season, the Blue Bulls sitting top of the table after four wins from four games. They’re both in action live on Sky this month, and first up for the Blue Bulls is a tough trip to Mbombela to meet the Pumas.

NFL

September brings the return of the NFL, with five live games a week on Sky Sports every week from now until the end of the regular season in January – plus, of course, the play-offs and Super Bowl LIX. Reigning champions the Kansas City Chiefs kick off the new campaign when they host the Baltimore Ravens on the first Thursday night game (and we note that the Chiefs’ most famous fan ends the current leg of her Eras tour in August, giving her all the time she needs to support the team). No, ahem, Swift exit needed.

 

These two teams, who met in the last AFC Championship game, will be among the favourites again this year thanks in no small part to their star quarterbacks, the Ravens’ Lamar Jackson and the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes – a triple Super Bowl winner already after just seven seasons in the NFL. In the NFC, Super Bowl runners-up San Francisco look strong again, but could this finally be the year for the Detroit Lions after a drastic improvement in the past couple of seasons? They host the LA Rams on the opening weekend.

Boxing

The IBF featherweight title is on the line in Albuquerque, New Mexico, when champ Venado Lopez meets challenger Angelo Leo in the latter’s home town. Then it’s on to Québec City, where France’s Christian Mbilli takes on Ukrainian Sergiy Derevyanchenko in a super middleweight clash. And then, in Tokyo, Naoya Inoue will have his second fight as undisputed super bantamweight champion. In May, he saw off Luis Nery, and now he faces former IBF champ TJ Doheny with all his belts at stake again.

You can see two of the highlights of the international nine-ball pool season this month on Sky Sports. The European Open comes from Fulda in Germany, as Spain’s David Alcaide defends the title he claimed with a thrilling 13-12 win over the Philippines’ Anton Raga in last year’s final. Then Atlantic City is the venue for the US Open, with a top prize of $50,000 – Taiwan’s Ko Ping-chung is the defending champ here.
