How to watch Wales against New Zealand and England against Japan: TV channel and kick off times

Exterior of the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, seen from Westgate Street

Key facts. Wales host New Zealand at 2.10pm UK time on Saturday 14 November at the Principality Stadium, then England play Japan at 4.40pm at Twickenham. Both are live on ITV1 and ITVX, with Welsh language coverage of the Cardiff game also listed on S4C.

Saturday is a heavy rugby afternoon on free-to-air television, which does not happen every weekend. At 2.10pm UK time (Europe/London, GMT), Wales host New Zealand at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. At 4.40pm, England play Japan at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham. Both matches are live on ITV1 and can be streamed for no extra charge on ITVX. BBC Radio 5 Live has commentary on both.

They sit in the autumn block of the Nations Championship, with a finals weekend due at the end of November. Wales need a result against the unbeaten All Blacks. England, after a convincing win over Australia last weekend, will be expected to make it four in a row before that finale.

Wales against the unbeaten All Blacks

Steve Tandy’s Wales go into Saturday’s match on the back of a 28-21 win over Japan last weekend, a result that came with a cost. Number eight Aaron Wainwright picked up a leg injury in that game, and his availability is the obvious selection question in the buildup. Radio Times’ match preview, published on Friday morning, puts Wales on two wins and two losses from four matches, fifth of six in the northern hemisphere pool. That is a mid-table snapshot, not a crisis, but it is not a position from which you can afford a flat home performance against New Zealand.

The All Blacks arrive with a perfect record, four wins from four under Scott Robertson. They are level on points with South Africa and sit second on points difference, according to the same preview, with that finals weekend still ahead. Cardiff in November, roof usually shut, a packed Principality Stadium, is still one of the more awkward away days in world rugby even for a side in that kind of form. Wales have made a habit, over the years, of finding something extra for this fixture. Whether this group can do it again, with Wainwright a doubt and a mixed record in the pool, is the question ITV’s afternoon will try to answer.

Kick-off is 2.10pm, with ITV1 on air from 1.40pm. If you are not near a television, ITVX carries the same programme on a phone or tablet, still without a paywall. Rugby World also notes Welsh language commentary of Wales matches on S4C, BBC iPlayer and S4C Clic. Radio listeners can follow it on 5 Live, on DAB, on the BBC Sounds app, or on the usual medium-wave frequencies. Those terrestrial times come from the Radio Times how-to-watch guide dated 13 November 2026. If a kick-off is moved by 10 minutes for television, it will be ITV and the union accounts that say so first.

England, Australia still fresh in the memory, then Japan

Later in the afternoon the camera shifts to Twickenham, now operating as Allianz Stadium for sponsorship purposes. Steve Borthwick’s England beat Australia 45-22 there on 8 November, a result confirmed across BBC Sport’s match coverage. England scored seven tries, including two in three minutes from Henry Pollock, and Fin Smith converted five of them. That win left England second in the northern hemisphere pool, two points behind France, and it set up Saturday as a chance to make it four successive victories heading into the end-of-month finals.

Japan are a dangerous but familiar opponent. Radio Times notes that England beat them 59-14 when the sides last met in 2024, and that England are yet to lose to Japan. Even if that history holds, it is not a fixture to treat as a training run, especially with a short turnaround before the next assignment in this championship. Borthwick will want a performance that looks like the Australia game, not a second-week dip of the kind international windows often produce when a big win is already in the bank.

ITV1 is on air from 4.30pm for a 4.40pm kick-off, which is a tight join if you have stayed with the Wales match to the final whistle. In practice, that is the point of the afternoon: one remote, two Tests, no extra subscription. ITVX and 5 Live again cover the official streaming and radio end. If you are out of the country, look for the licensed rugby broadcaster in that market rather than a random replay site. The UK rights for this championship, as advertised this week, sit with ITV.

A free-to-air Saturday, used properly

It is still worth writing the UK times down plainly. Wales against New Zealand, 2.10pm, Principality Stadium, ITV1 and ITVX, with S4C also listed for Welsh language coverage, and radio on 5 Live. England against Japan, 4.40pm, Allianz Stadium in Twickenham, ITV1 and ITVX, radio on 5 Live. No club season ticket is required, and no unofficial stream is required either.

The wider championship picture will sharpen after these two results. New Zealand are trying to reach the finals weekend still unbeaten. Wales are trying to turn a home Test against the All Blacks into the kind of afternoon that changes a pool table. England are trying to add a professional win over Japan to last week’s seven-try display against Australia. If you only watch one, watch the 2.10pm in Cardiff. If you can stay for both, it is one of the better free Saturdays the autumn has offered.

How to watch the Saturday Tests

In the United Kingdom, ITV has the exclusive rights to the Nations Championship, and Rugby World’s 12 November guide says every match this weekend, including France against South Africa on Friday and Scotland against Australia on Sunday, is on ITV1 and ITVX. Wales against New Zealand is at 2.10pm, with ITV1 on air from 1.40pm. England against Japan is at 4.40pm, with ITV1 from 4.30pm. S4C, BBC iPlayer and S4C Clic are listed for Welsh language coverage of Wales games. BBC Radio 5 Live has commentary. ITVX is free with registration, and you need a valid TV licence to stream live television in the UK.

In Ireland, Rugby World lists Virgin Media Play for every match, with Virgin Media One also showing this weekend’s Tests. In France it lists TF1 and the TF1+ stream, and says Wales against New Zealand is on TF1 this weekend, with England against Japan on TFX. In New Zealand the official outlet named is Sky Sport NZ. In Australia it lists Stan Sport. In South Africa it lists SuperSport. In Japan it lists WOWOW. In Italy it lists Sky Sport Italia. In the United States, and in other countries without a local rights holder, it points to World Rugby’s RugbyPass TV, which it describes as free with registration. Use those official services only.

What time is England against Japan and what channel is it on?

4.40pm UK time on Saturday 14 November, at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham. It is live on ITV1 and ITVX, with radio commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Can I watch these matches outside the UK?

Yes, on the official local broadcaster. That includes Sky Sport NZ in New Zealand, Stan Sport in Australia, Virgin Media in Ireland, TF1 in France, SuperSport in South Africa, WOWOW in Japan, and RugbyPass TV in the United States where no local rights holder is listed. Do not use an unofficial stream.

Watch safely

Use official TV channels and legal apps only. A virtual private network can help if you are on public Wi-Fi, in a hotel, or travelling, and it can protect the connection when you sign in to those official services. It is not a way to dodge a subscription or to find an unofficial stream, and we will not point you to one. These are the services I point people to: NordVPN, Surfshark, IPVanish, CyberGhost, PureVPN and Ivacy.

If you want a living room box for official sports apps, these are two I point people to. The NVIDIA Shield TV Pro is still the one I put first if you want a proper Android TV Play Store. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max is the simpler stick option, with official apps from Amazon’s own store. These product links were checked on 13 November 2026:

England all out for 131 in Perth: how to watch the second Australia ODI TV channel and start time

The stands and playing surface at Perth Stadium, also known as Optus Stadium, seen on an open day

Key facts. Australia beat England by seven wickets in the first ODI in Perth, after England were bowled out for 131, Mahli Beardman taking 6-24 on debut. The second ODI is in Adelaide on Sunday, with UK coverage from 3.00am on TNT Sports 1 and HBO Max.

England’s winter in Australia began with a familiar kind of collapse. On Friday 13 November at Perth Stadium, Harry Brook’s side were bowled out for 131 in 33.4 overs and lost the first one-day international by seven wickets, with Australia cantering home in 23.3 overs and 26.3 overs to spare. The wrecking ball was a 21-year-old fast bowler on debut. Mahli Beardman took 6-24, a debut analysis better than any previous Australian in this format, and England never recovered once that spell was underway.

It was only 12 months, almost to the week, since England were bundled out of the first Ashes Test at the same ground in two days. The format is different this time, a white-ball tour of three ODIs and five Twenty20s, but the method of dismissal looked painfully similar: batters driving at balls that bounced and left them, and a total that never threatened to be enough.

Beardman, and a familiar Perth problem

BBC Sport’s report from the ground is unsparing, and the scorecard backs it up. Beardman had Gus Atkinson to thank for the only unbeaten resistance of any note, 29 not out, while Will Jacks made 25. Almost everybody else came and went. Beardman had Brook caught behind in his second over, his first wicket in international cricket, then removed Joe Root for 17, Jordan Cox for two and Sam Curran for a seven-ball duck. He later added Liam Dawson and Jofra Archer, finishing with those debut figures of 6-24 after an opening burst of 5-18 from five overs. At times, the BBC says, he was clocked at more than 90mph.

The top order had already given him a platform. Tom Banton edged a drive with his feet stuck, and Ben Duckett sliced left-armer Spencer Johnson to backward point. From 65 for 8 the innings was a salvage job, and it still ended inside 34 overs. BBC Sport noted that this was the 15th dismissal in England’s 29 one day internationals under McCullum as white-ball coach, 11 of those after they batted first. Michael Vaughan, on Test Match Special, said he did not see last winter’s “go harder” message so much as basic errors on a pitch that demanded more care.

Australia’s chase was a formality even after Travis Head, the man who had taken England apart in last year’s Perth Test, dragged on first ball. Captain Mitchell Marsh hammered a 29-ball fifty with four sixes over the leg side, Cooper Connolly made 27, and Josh Inglis and Matthew Renshaw finished the job at 132 for 3. The BBC reports that Australia have only twice before chased down an England total with that much of the innings still unused.

A series played under a cloud, but the cricket was one-sided

The tour arrived in a week when Australian cricket has been talking about something else entirely. Usman Khawaja’s autobiography has put the 2018 sandpaper scandal back on the front pages. Joe Root, speaking in Perth before the game, declined to speculate when the subject was raised. By Friday morning the noise had not died down. BBC Sport reported that the day began with David Warner, on Australian television, accusing Pat Cummins of throwing Khawaja “under the bus”, hours after Cummins had responded to Khawaja’s comments. Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood are being rested from this white-ball series, which is also why a 21-year-old like Beardman was given the new ball in an ODI.

England, for their part, cannot hide behind the sideshow. They came here after finishing bottom of a 50-over tri-series in Pakistan against Pakistan and Sri Lanka, and they have now lost four of their last five ODIs. McCullum is still the limited-overs coach, with a World Cup next year in his in-tray. He is no longer the Test coach, having been removed during the English summer after last winter’s Ashes. The preparation this time included a 50-over warm-up against a Western Australia XI at the WACA on 7 November, a clearer attempt to get used to Perth than the brief red-ball work a year ago. On Friday it did not show in the scoreboard.

McCullum, speaking to TNT Sports, did not pretend otherwise. “It all happened pretty quickly,” he said. “I thought we weren’t quick enough to adapt to the conditions, we talked extensively leading into the game about the surface here at Optus is a bit like batting on a trampoline.” He pointed out that the last four games at the ground had been finished in a little over 30 overs, so a low-scoring match was no surprise, but 130 was still well short of what they had expected. The lessons, he added, will matter in South Africa at the next World Cup, on pitches that may not bounce quite like Perth but will still test them.

Adelaide is next, very early on Sunday morning

The second of the three ODIs is in Adelaide on Sunday 15 November. Cricket Australia lists that match at 2.30pm AEDT, which is 3.30am UK time, and TNT Sports says UK coverage starts from 3.00am on TNT Sports 1 and HBO Max. The third ODI follows in Hobart on 18 November, again with UK coverage from 3.00am.

Three ODIs, then five T20s, is a decent block of cricket if England can remember how to occupy the crease. Root was set to reach his 200th ODI on this tour, a landmark that should have been a subplot, not a footnote to a 131 all out. Brook’s team have a couple of days to decide whether Perth was a one-off on a lively pitch or another warning about their 50-over batting. Beardman, who had previously played just one international, a Twenty20 against Pakistan in January, will not care which of those it was. He has a debut six-for, and England have a deficit to chase in Adelaide.

How to watch the second ODI

In the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands and Gibraltar, Cricket Australia’s official global TV guide names TNT Sports, with radio coverage from the BBC. TNT Sports’ own how-to-watch guide, updated on 12 November, says the second ODI is on TNT Sports 1 and HBO Max from 3.00am UK time on Sunday 15 November. If you cannot stay up, wait for official highlights rather than a random replay site.

In Australia, the official outlets are Kayo Sports and Fox Cricket, with radio on ABC Sport, SEN and Triple M. In New Zealand, Cricket Australia lists Sky NZ. In the United States, Canada and several US territories it lists Willow. In India and a group of neighbouring countries it lists JioHotstar. In much of sub-Saharan Africa it lists SuperSport. Other regions are set out on cricket.com.au’s global guide, including Cricket TV in a large part of Europe. Use those official services only.

If you are staying up anyway, Saturday also has Zuffa Boxing 13 on Sky Sports and Wales against New Zealand plus England against Japan on ITV.

How to watch Zuffa Boxing 13: Adames against Warburton TV channel and start time

A professional boxing ring and arena seating at ExCeL London during the 2012 Summer Olympics

Key facts. Carlos Adames meets Gerome Warburton in a 10 round super middleweight main event at Zuffa Boxing 13 in Riyadh on Saturday 14 November. It is on Sky Sports in the UK and Paramount+ in the United States.

A Welsh super middleweight is headlining in Riyadh on Saturday, which is not a sentence British boxing has been able to write all that often. Gerome Warburton meets Carlos Adames over 10 rounds at The Venue, on a Riyadh Season card promoted as Zuffa Boxing 13. The official weigh-in story, published by UFC on Friday 13 November, lists that bout as the main event and confirms the show is on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom and Paramount+ in the United States.

It is the next step in Zuffa’s boxing series after a noisy night in London last Saturday, when Chev Clarke stopped former cruiserweight world champion Chris Billam-Smith at the Copper Box Arena. Saturday’s card in Saudi Arabia is a different assignment: a road trip, an afternoon start for UK viewers, and a main event that should tell us more about Warburton on a bigger stage.

The card, as officially announced

UFC’s preview and weigh-in pages agree on the shape of the main card. Adames, from the Dominican Republic, and Warburton, from Wales, are listed for 10 rounds at super middleweight. Australia’s Jason Moloney meets Mexico’s Andres Teran at bantamweight. France’s Bruno Surace faces Poland’s Kamil Bednarek, also at super middleweight. The preliminaries stretch from heavyweight to lightweight. The Friday weigh-in report names, among others, Jakhongir Zokirov against Brandon Colantonio at heavyweight over six rounds, Radzhab Butaev against Alexander Castro at middleweight over 10, and Ivan Ortiz against Dariial Kuchmenov at lightweight over eight, and it publishes those fighters’ official weights.

There is a small wrinkle in the published start times, so it is worth being precise rather than pretending the two official pages say exactly the same thing. The event preview, dated 11 November, says the prelims start at 7.15am Eastern Time, with the main card at 11.00am ET, which is 4.00pm UK time (Europe/London, GMT). The weigh-in article dated 13 November says the first bout is at 8.00am ET, which is 1.00pm in the UK. If you are setting an alarm or a reminder, use Sky Sports’ on-the-day listing as the final word, and treat 1.00pm UK time as the earliest official first-bell figure published on Friday, with the main event not expected until the late afternoon UK window around 4.00pm.

Tickets for the live gate are being sold through webook.com, according to the same UFC pages. For everyone watching at home, the legal routes named by the promoter are Sky Sports and Paramount+.

Why last week in London still matters

Zuffa Boxing 12, at the Copper Box on 7 November, was a useful trailer for UK interest in this series. Official UFC and CBS Sports reports describe Clarke dropping Billam-Smith twice in the seventh round before the referee stopped the contest at 1 minute 24 seconds. It was, they say, the first time Billam-Smith had been put down as a professional, and it continued a rivalry that had already produced two amateur wins for Clarke. Denzel Bentley, the former middleweight titleholder, won a tight unanimous decision over Shane Mosley Jr on scores of 96-94, 96-93 and 95-94. Heavyweight prospect Da’Mazion Vanhouter stayed unbeaten with a first-round stoppage of Ivan Balaz, his fourth Zuffa appearance of 2026.

Those results do not tell us who wins in Riyadh. They do explain why a Sky Sports audience is being asked to spend Saturday afternoon with this brand again. Clarke’s stoppage was the sort of finish that makes a casual viewer stay for the next card. Warburton now has the less comfortable task of doing his work thousands of miles from home, in a 10-round main event, against Adames.

I am not going to invent form lines or official records I have not checked on a commission site. What we can say from the promoter’s own material is straightforward: this is a 10-round super middleweight main event, it has made the official weight-in cycle on Friday, and it is being shown on a major UK sports channel. That is enough to justify sitting down for it. It is not enough to dress it up as a world title fight that it has not been announced as.

How to watch Zuffa Boxing 13

In the United Kingdom, the official outlet named by UFC this week is Sky Sports. Sky customers can watch on the Sky Sports boxing or main sports channel listed in the Sky guide on the day, and through the Sky Sports app. If you do not have Sky, use only an official pass or official highlights, not a Facebook link from a stranger. In the United States, UFC says the whole event streams on Paramount+. Those are the two territories the promoter has named on its preview and weigh-in pages. If you are elsewhere, look for a licensed local partner, and treat 1.00pm UK time as the earliest official first-bell figure published on Friday, with the main event not expected until the late afternoon UK window around 4.00pm.

Saturday is also a big rugby afternoon. We have kick off times and official channels for Wales against New Zealand and England against Japan, both on ITV. If you are up early on Sunday, the second Australia against England ODI is on TNT Sports from 3.00am.

FAQs

What channel is Zuffa Boxing 13 on in the UK?

Sky Sports, according to UFC’s official weigh-in and event pages published this week. Check the Sky guide on Saturday for the exact channel name.

What time does Zuffa Boxing 13 start?

UFC’s 13 November weigh-in article lists the first bout at 8.00am Eastern Time, which is 1.00pm UK time. An earlier official preview listed prelims at 7.15am ET and the main card at 11.00am ET, which is 4.00pm UK time. Use Sky’s on-the-day listing as the final word.

Who is fighting in the main event?

Carlos Adames of the Dominican Republic against Gerome Warburton of Wales, over 10 rounds at super middleweight, at The Venue in Riyadh.

How to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix: start time TV channel and Norris Sao Paulo win

Spectators in the grandstands at Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, Interlagos, during a Formula 1 weekend

Key facts. Lando Norris won the Sao Paulo Grand Prix on 8 November and Mercedes sealed the constructors title. The Las Vegas Grand Prix race is at 4.00am UK time on Sunday 22 November, live on Sky Sports F1.

Lando Norris won a messy, absorbing Sao Paulo Grand Prix on Sunday 8 November, and Mercedes left Interlagos as constructors’ champions. The two facts belong together, even if they come from different parts of the same wet afternoon. Norris took his third victory of the season after a 71-lap race that started on a damp track, dried, then threw a late shower at the field. George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, after a pair of expensive spins, still brought home fourth and fifth, which was enough for Mercedes to wrap up the title.

The official winning margin was 14.6 seconds. Max Verstappen finished second from 21st on the grid. Isack Hadjar made it a Red Bull double podium in third. Oscar Piastri was sixth for McLaren. The paddock now packs for Las Vegas, with both 2026 titles already decided and three races still to run.

A wet start, a dry middle, and a late shower

Drama arrived before the lights even went out. Antonelli, already the drivers’ champion after the previous weekend in Mexico City, spun on his reconnaissance lap at Turn 12 and ran through the grass. He made it back to the grid, then jumped Norris off the line from second place and led. Liam Lawson, starting on the second row, swept around the outside into second, and polesitter Norris had to be patient.

The intermediates began to overheat as the circuit dried. Hamilton, on his 400th Formula 1 start, had rocketed from 20th to ninth on the opening lap, was investigated for an off-track pass, gave the place back, and later became one of the first to pit for slick tyres. Norris, Russell and Hadjar stopped at the end of lap 16. Russell then spun at the pit exit, clipped the process of turning the car around, and lost a chunk of the afternoon. Antonelli and Verstappen stayed out a lap longer. The Mercedes driver rejoined still in front, but only just, and reported that something felt odd with the car.

On lap 20 Antonelli spun at Turn 1 and Norris was through. The Italian ran deep at the same corner a lap later and slipped behind Hadjar, then Verstappen. From there Norris managed the race. He kept his head through the second change of tyres when the rain returned in the closing laps, and he came home in 1:35:23.504. “The main thing today was I just kept it cool and I didn’t make any mistakes,” he said afterwards, calling it “nice to be back on the top step”. BBC Sport noted it was his first victory since Zandvoort at the end of August.

Mercedes win the constructors’ title the hard way

Antonelli eventually finished fifth after that early lead, a pre-race spin and further trips through the Turn 1 runoff. Russell recovered to fourth. According to BBC Sport, those two results were enough for Mercedes to seal a ninth constructors’ championship, on 652 points, with Ferrari second and 140 points behind. Sky Sports noted that Antonelli had become Formula 1’s youngest ever world champion at the Mexico City Grand Prix a week earlier, completing a title double for the team once the constructors’ trophy was confirmed in Brazil.

It was not a clean parade. Lewis Hamilton finished ninth after starting 20th and spinning as the late rain arrived, glancing a wall but reaching the pits. Charles Leclerc passed Lawson on the penultimate lap, then was handed a five-second sanction after contact between the pair, which dropped him back behind the Racing Bulls driver after the flag. Nico Hulkenberg took the final point for Audi. Valtteri Bottas never took the start, his Cadillac being pushed away with a problem before the lights went out, and Lance Stroll retired mid-race. Rafael Camara finished 20th on his Formula 1 debut for Haas.

The supporting picture for the last three races is tighter than the two settled titles suggest. Sky Sports reported that Verstappen has now finished on the last eight podiums, moving 17 points clear of Russell in the fight for second in the drivers’ standings, with Hamilton a point further back. In the constructors’ table, Red Bull lead McLaren by 17 points in the contest for third, and Haas sit three points ahead of Audi in the scrap for seventh. There is still plenty to play for, even with the big trophies already claimed.

Las Vegas comes next, very late at night in the UK

The calendar now heads to the Las Vegas Strip Circuit for 20 to 22 November, the first leg of a closing triple-header before Qatar and Abu Dhabi. Sky Sports F1 will show every session live. Because Las Vegas runs in the late afternoon and evening locally, and is eight hours behind the United Kingdom, the UK times are brutal. Practice one starts at 12.30am UK time on Friday 20 November. Practice two is at 4.00am the same morning. Practice three is at 12.30am on Saturday 21 November, with qualifying at 4.00am. The race itself is at 4.00am UK time on Sunday 22 November, with build-up on Sky Sports F1 from 2.30am.

Sky customers can watch on Sky Sports F1, and on the Sky Sports app. If you do not have Sky, the official route Sky itself points to is a NOW Day pass or a cancel-anytime Month pass. Session re-runs go out on Sky Sports F1 and Main Event each morning, which is the civilised option if 4.00am is not realistic. There is no need to go hunting for a random feed. The official UK home of this race is Sky.

The track, Sky Sports reminds us, is 3.8 miles long with 17 corners and a 1.2-mile straight down the Strip. Sky Sports, writing on 12 November, said evening temperatures were expected to be chilly and that no rain was then forecast on track days, which would be a very different assignment from Interlagos. Norris will go there as the man in form. Mercedes will go there as champions, and perhaps as a team that still wants a cleaner Sunday than the one that just won them the title.

How to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix

In the United Kingdom and Ireland, Formula 1’s official broadcast list names Sky Sports and Channel 4. Live sessions this weekend, including qualifying at 4.00am UK time on Saturday 21 November and the race at 4.00am on Sunday 22 November, are on Sky Sports F1, as set out in Sky’s own Las Vegas schedule. Sky customers can also watch on the Sky Sports app. If you do not have Sky, the official route Sky itself points to is a NOW Day pass or a cancel-anytime Month pass. Session re-runs go out on Sky Sports F1 and Main Event each morning. Check Channel 4’s listings for any free to air coverage or highlights; do not assume the race is live on Channel 4 unless that schedule says so.

In the United States, Formula 1 lists Apple TV as the official broadcaster. In Australia it lists Fox Sports, Foxtel and Kayo. In Germany the official outlets are Sky Deutschland and RTL. In France it is Canal+. In Canada it lists TSN, RDS, RDS 2 and Noovo. Formula 1 also offers an F1 TV subscription in many territories. Always use those official services, not a random stream.

The Premier League returns the same weekend; the UK and international TV grid is here. Before that, Spain against England is on Sunday 15 November.

FAQs

What time does the Las Vegas Grand Prix start in the UK?

The race is at 4.00am UK time (Europe/London, GMT) on Sunday 22 November 2026, with Sky Sports F1 build-up from 2.30am. Qualifying is at 4.00am on Saturday 21 November.

What channel is the Las Vegas Grand Prix on in the UK?

Sky Sports F1 for the live sessions. Formula 1 also names Channel 4 as a UK and Ireland broadcaster, so check Channel 4’s own listings for highlights or any free to air programme.

Who won the Sao Paulo Grand Prix and did Mercedes win the constructors title?

Lando Norris won in Brazil on 8 November, from pole, in wet then dry then wet conditions. George Russell came home fourth and Kimi Antonelli fifth, which was enough for Mercedes to seal the constructors championship.

How to watch the Premier League return: TV channels kick off times and Liverpool against Manchester United

Exterior view of the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, home of Manchester City

Key facts. The Premier League returns on Saturday 21 November. The first live UK game is Manchester City against Fulham at 12.30pm on TNT Sports, with Liverpool against Manchester United at 4.30pm on Sunday on Sky Sports.

The Premier League is having a pause, not a holiday. The second international break of the 2026/27 season runs from 9 to 17 November, with national teams busy until Tuesday, and club football returns on Saturday 21 November. If you have spent the week wondering when the league comes back, and which channel has which match, the official broadcast grid is now clear.

There is no Friday night fixture immediately after this window. The first match is Manchester City against Fulham at 12.30pm UK time (Europe/London, GMT) on Saturday 21 November, live on TNT Sports. The 5.30pm game that evening is Newcastle United against Arsenal on Sky Sports. Sunday belongs, in the public imagination at least, to Liverpool against Manchester United at 4.30pm, also on Sky Sports.

The full return weekend, with official times

These times and selections come from the Premier League’s own fixture amendments, later mirrored on the BBC Sport scores and fixtures page. All times below are UK time. Saturday’s 3.00pm kick-offs are Aston Villa against Sunderland, Bournemouth against Nottingham Forest, Chelsea against Leeds United, Coventry City against Crystal Palace, and Tottenham Hotspur against Ipswich Town. Those 3.00pm games are not listed for live UK television in the league’s amendment notice, which is the usual pattern.

Sunday 22 November has Hull City against Brighton and Hove Albion at 2.00pm on Sky Sports, then Liverpool against Manchester United at 4.30pm on Sky Sports. Monday 23 November closes the first block with Brentford against Everton at 8.00pm, again on Sky Sports.

A week later the calendar gets even busier. Nottingham Forest against Chelsea has been moved to Friday 27 November at 8.00pm on Sky Sports. Saturday 28 November has Leeds United against Coventry City and Manchester United against Brentford at 3.00pm, plus Ipswich Town against Aston Villa at 5.30pm on Sky Sports. Sunday 29 November is a full live slate: Everton against Liverpool at 12.00pm on TNT Sports, then 2.05pm kick-offs for Brighton against Newcastle, Crystal Palace against Hull City, Fulham against Bournemouth and Sunderland against Tottenham, with several of those Sunday afternoon games moved because of UEFA Europa League or Conference League commitments. The 4.30pm match that day is Arsenal against Manchester City on Sky Sports.

Why the league stopped, and what fills the gap

The Premier League has three international breaks this season. The first, from 21 September to 6 October, was a longer window in which European countries played four matches rather than the usual two. This November break is shorter: two matches in a nine-day window, sitting between Matchweeks 10 and 11. The last break is due from 22 to 30 March.

The league’s own explainer is blunt about the point of the pause. Domestic rounds are not staged on a Monday night before a break, or on a Friday night immediately after one, which is why we wait until Saturday 21 November rather than sneaking a match in on Friday 20 November. European nations are in the UEFA Nations League this week. African sides are in Africa Cup of Nations qualifying. The United States, Mexico and the other qualified CONCACAF teams are in the Nations League quarter-finals. South American and Asian sides are scheduled for friendlies.

That is a lot of travel for a squad already mid-season. It is also why the return fixtures have been placed with one eye on European club competitions later in the month. If your club is in the Thursday night UEFA competitions, do not be surprised to see a Sunday 2.05pm kick-off rather than the old 3.00pm habit.

The matches most people will plan around

City against Fulham is an early lunchtime start, which suits TNT Sports and anyone hoping to watch two live games in a day. Newcastle against Arsenal in the Saturday teatime slot is the other national TV appointment that day, and it will tell us plenty about both clubs once players are back from international duty. Chelsea against Leeds at 3.00pm is the sort of fixture that used to be a staple of Saturday afternoons and, unless a late change is announced, will be followed by the usual highlights programmes rather than a live UK broadcast.

Liverpool against Manchester United on Sunday 22 November is the headline. Sky Sports has the 4.30pm slot. It is the first time the two sides meet in the league after the break, with a full week for any late returning internationals to get back on the training pitch. Everton against Liverpool, eight days later at lunchtime on TNT Sports, will keep the city of Liverpool on the fixture list twice in a week.

Arsenal against Manchester City on Sunday 29 November, at 4.30pm on Sky Sports, is the other magnet in this run. Between those two Sundays sits a fairly ordinary-looking midweek-free stretch, then that Friday night Forest against Chelsea game. If you only mark three live slots in the diary, make them City against Fulham, Liverpool against United, and Arsenal against City.

How to watch the Premier League return

In the United Kingdom, live coverage sits with Sky Sports and TNT Sports, as the Premier League’s own fixture amendments make clear. Sky customers can watch on television or through the Sky Sports app. People without a Sky subscription can use NOW, subject to NOW’s own packages. TNT Sports is available through its official apps and participating television platforms. The BBC does not show Premier League matches live in the UK. It does show highlights, usually on Match of the Day and BBC iPlayer, after the full-time whistles have gone.

In the United States, NBC Sports says every Premier League match in 2026/27 is available across NBC, USA Network and Peacock. For this return weekend it has listed Manchester City against Fulham, Tottenham against Ipswich, Newcastle against Arsenal, Hull City against Brighton, Liverpool against Manchester United and Brentford against Everton on USA Network, with the Saturday 3.00pm UK kick-offs (10.00am Eastern) going to Peacock, including Chelsea against Leeds. In Australia, 2026/27 rights guides including FourFourTwo list every match live on Stan Sport. In Ireland, the same UK rights holders, Sky Sports and TNT Sports, are the starting point, with local listings the final check. Elsewhere, use the Premier League’s official broadcaster list for your country. Kick-off times can still move, so glance at the official club or league channels on the morning of the game.

Sunday 15 November, before the league returns, is also Spain against England in the Nations League, live on ITV1. The Formula 1 calendar then heads to Las Vegas the same weekend the league resumes; we have the Las Vegas Grand Prix start time and official TV outlets in a separate piece.

How to watch Spain against England: TV channel kick off time and Kane record night

The arch and pitch at Wembley Stadium seen from inside the ground before a match

Key facts. England beat Croatia 2-1 at Wembley on 12 November, Harry Kane winning his 126th cap and scoring the decisive penalty. Spain against England is on Sunday 15 November at 7.45pm UK time, live on ITV1 and ITVX.

Harry Kane has spent a decade making Wembley nights feel inevitable. On Thursday he added another line that will sit in the record books long after the scoreline has faded. The England captain walked out for his 126th cap, passed Peter Shilton’s mark of 125, and then scored the penalty that beat Croatia 2-1 and put the Three Lions into the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals.

It was a historic evening that began with ceremony and ended with a hard, slightly anxious win. Morgan Rogers had given England a first-half lead. Petar Sucic levelled just before the hour. Kane, as he so often does, settled it from the spot in the 64th minute, his 92nd goal for his country. Sunday’s trip to Spain now decides who wins Group A3 and goes into the last-eight draw as a seeded side.

A record night, complete with the Ballon d’Or

England’s official match report is worth lingering on, because the pre-match scene was not a sideshow. Kane showed his Ballon d’Or trophy to the Wembley crowd. Peter Shilton, the man whose appearance record he was about to overtake, and the Prince of Wales handed him a commemorative shirt. Luka Modric, himself a former Ballon d’Or winner, presented a gift from the Croatian Football Federation. Kane started; Modric began on the bench.

Thomas Tuchel lined England up in a 4-2-3-1. Jordan Pickford started in goal, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jarell Quansah, Dan Burn and Lewis Hall behind Declan Rice and Elliot Anderson. Rogers, Jude Bellingham and Anthony Gordon supported Kane. That is the side that went looking for a first-half foothold after a cautious opening, with Croatia, perhaps still sore from England’s 7-0 win in Rijeka in October, forcing early corners.

England’s first sight of goal arrived after 16 minutes, Anderson shooting over from the edge of the box. Eight minutes later the lead arrived in familiar fashion. Kane dropped into a pocket and clipped a diagonal ball for Bellingham, whose first-time delivery was forced in from close range by Rogers. Officially it will go down as a poacher’s finish. In the stands it felt like the night had found its shape.

Sucic punctures the mood, Kane restores it

The remainder of the first half was tidy rather than thrilling. Hall had a shot deflected wide. Alexander-Arnold blazed over from distance. Pickford’s work was mostly routine, dealing with efforts from Mateo Kovacic and Martin Baturina. After the interval Gordon curled wide and Kane was denied by a block from Josip Stanisic, his Bayern Munich teammate, after Rice had cut the ball back.

Croatia’s equaliser, in the 59th minute, was the sloppy spell Tuchel later admitted to. England failed to deal with a corner and Sucic was first to the loose ball, poking it past Pickford. Sky Sports’ report described a casual header back towards the goalkeeper from Quansah. Either way, it was a gift Croatia accepted, and it left a record-breaking night suddenly in the balance.

England needed only five minutes to reply. Quansah was pulled down by Ivan Smolcic, a VAR review followed, and Danish referee Morten Krogh pointed to the spot. Kane went straight down the middle. England’s official report put his tally for this 2026-27 Nations League campaign at seven. The captain later called the whole evening “incredible”, thanked Croatia and Modric for their gift, and said the night was easier to enjoy once the result was safe.

The closing stages were not comfortable. Nikola Vlasic shot inches wide. James Garner thought he had a first England goal, only for the offside flag to go up. Substitute Ante Budimir headed over in stoppage time, after earlier being denied by a vital intervention from Quansah. Tuchel’s side held on. His own verdict was measured: an “okay” performance, slow to solve Croatia’s shape, then “sloppy” from a set piece, followed by the reaction a desperate result required.

Spain in Madrid, and the rest of the window

The prize is a quarter-final place already banked, with a chance to win the group in Madrid. Spain, the world and European champions, beat Czechia 2-0 on the same night, through an Alex Baena penalty and a late finish from Marc Pubill. UEFA’s round-up framed Sunday as the match that decides who advances from Group A3 as group winners. The Evening Standard, writing on 13 November, said England trail Spain by three points after five games each, so only a win would take Tuchel’s side top, while a point would be enough for Spain to stay there. The last-eight ties themselves are due in March, with group winners seeded for two-legged quarter-finals and the finals scheduled for June.

Spain against England kicks off at 7.45pm UK time (Europe/London, GMT) on Sunday 15 November at the Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid. The under-21s are on a different path: they host Portugal at Ashton Gate at 7.30pm on Friday 13 November, with that game streamed on the England app.

Elsewhere in this Nations League window, Friday’s slate includes Scotland against North Macedonia and Germany away to Serbia, all at the usual 7.45pm UK time unless a late change is announced. On Saturday, Wales travel to Norway for an 6.00pm CET kick-off, which is 5.00pm in the UK, and the Republic of Ireland are away to Austria. Those kick-off times come from UEFA’s matchday schedule. Check the official broadcaster listings on the day, because international rights can shift at short notice.

Kane now stands alone on the appearance list and remains, by a distance, England’s record scorer. The night will be remembered for that, and for the penalty. The football in between was patchy enough that Tuchel will demand a sharper performance in Madrid. Spain will not need a second invitation if England again switch off at a corner.

How to watch Spain against England

In the United Kingdom, England Football lists the match live on ITV1. The Evening Standard and UK listings confirm it is free to air, with coverage from 7.00pm ahead of the 7.45pm kick-off, and that the official stream is on ITVX (free with registration). In Northern Ireland, UTV is also listed. Radio coverage is not the main official TV outlet here; if you want audio, check BBC Radio 5 Live’s schedule on the day.

In Spain, RTVE says the game is live and free on La 1 and on RTVE Play, at 8.45pm local time. In Australia and New Zealand, beIN SPORTS holds the Nations League rights this season and lists Spain against England at 6.45am AEDT on Monday 16 November, with official streams via beIN SPORTS CONNECT and the partners named on beIN’s own guide. In the United States, FOX Sports is the official 2026/27 Nations League rights holder across FS1, FS2 and FOX Soccer Plus. Check FOX’s listings for which of those channels has this specific Sunday match (2.45pm Eastern Time). Do not use an unofficial feed. If you are in another country, start with the official UEFA or national broadcaster list rather than a random website.

If you are also filling the rest of the weekend, we have a TV guide to Wales against New Zealand and England against Japan on Saturday, plus how to watch the Premier League when it returns on 21 November.
