Why is Match of the Day not on TV tonight?
Match of the Day will not be broadcast tonight despite five Premier League games being played this week
www.radiotimes.comI don’t have live access to current schedules right now, but here’s how you can quickly check MOTD time tonight.
- Check BBC One schedule for tonight: MOTD typically airs around 10:20–10:35pm UK time on Saturdays, with MOTD2 on Sundays. If you’re in Valletta, note UK time applies (BST/GMT depending on date) and there may be regional or channel variations.[1][9]
- If Gary Lineker is unavailable, expect a guest presenter or a reduced-format edition; recent updates have seen shifts in who hosts but the start time generally remains late evening.[2][5]
- For the exact running order and start time, consult official BBC schedule updates or the BBC iPlayer page on the day of broadcast, as late changes can occur due to breaking news or late kicks.[9][1]
If you’d like, I can monitor for you and summarize the latest official broadcast time and running order once you confirm you want me to fetch updates. Would you like me to do that?
