The 15 Coventry City matches already for Sky Sports live coverage in 2024/25
Sky Sports will announce more fixtures set for live broadcast but there are already 15 which will definitely be shown on television
Sky Sports will confirm in the next few days which Saturday fixtures in the opening couple of months of the Championship season are set for live television coverage and will subsequently be moved to suit day and time slots.
But there are already 15 Coventry City matches from August until May that are in the diary for live broadcast as part of a £935 million new five-year deal struck by the EFL.
Sky will show 10 matches on a regular weekend. That is five from the Championship and five from across League One and League Two. They will mostly be spread between Friday night and Saturday and Sunday 12.30pm kick-offs, with occasional Thursday and Monday night games too.

Wolves have made ‘very important offer’ for signing – Attempt made to tempt player with ‘higher salary’
Wolverhampton Wanderers have made an attempt to sign Sevilla’s Isaac Romero in the summer window, according to Vamos Mi Sevilla FC.
The striker has managed six goals and four assists from 16 games since he was promoted to the Spanish club’s first team at the start of this year.
Wolves have tried to tempt the 24-year-old to join them this summer.
Last month, the Spaniard committed his long-term future to the La Liga side by signing a deal until 2028. The report claims it includes a €30m release clause.
Prior to Romero signing a new contract, Gary O’Neil’s side made a firm approach to secure his services. It’s claimed there was a ‘very important offer’ to Sevilla from Wolves, who have also proposed a higher salary than what he currently earns.
The attacker has never considered leaving the Andalusian club and his plan is to continue with them, probably for at least one more season.
Romero believes he could still have an opportunity to earn a big contract elsewhere in the future if he were to impress at Sevilla next season.
Taking all these into consideration, the player has rejected Wolves’ important offer.
