Match of the Day is a national institution. From the moment the first note blares, you’re in – win, lose or draw, you’re in.
Gary Lineker has ruled the roost since 1999 and continues to bring Premier League drama to the nation alongside a host of pundits and ex-players.
Premier League highlights remain a crown jewel in the BBC’s arsenal and the current TV rights deal will see Match of the Day run up to 2025 at least, with Lineker also committed to presenting until then.
The 2021/22 season has thrown up plenty of curveballs in the first half of the season and the season half of the campaign is perfectly primed for explosive action from top to bottom.
Manchester City boast a strong lead at the top of the table, can Liverpool catch them? At the foot of the table, Norwich have shown signs of life lately and have stirred the pot with only one of the defined bottom four likely to survive.
RadioTimes.com brings you everything you need to know about when you can get your weekly football fix through Match of the Day.
