HD Premiership & European football on Sky Sports HD

For the English Premiership season Sky Sports will be broadcasting a significant proportion of those matches - 138 to be precise - in glorious high-definition (HD).

Sky will also be showing matches from the Coca-Cola League, Carling Cup and selected UEFA Champions League fixtures on Sky HD.

The first Premiership match will be Sheffield Utd vs Liverpool on August 19th, with every club being seen live by mid-October.

Vic Wakeling, Managing Director of Sky Sports, commented, "All 138 live games on Sky Sports and PremPlus will be offered in HD. It's something we've been working on for a year, and the results have been superb - the most exciting development in sports broadcasting since the introduction of colour. We think the Premiership - and our subscribers - deserves this quality of coverage."
