ITV's Live Euro Plans Revealed

ITV has announced a stellar line-up for its live coverage of Euro 2024 to guide viewers through the tournament, with comprehensive plans to bring fans the very best action on TV, on demand and online.

Live games and highlights broadcast on ITV1 and ITV4 and simulcast on ITVX, as well as across STV and STV Player, will be complemented by a range of bespoke content on ITV Football's platforms and on ITVX so wherever they are, viewers can immerse themselves in all the action from the tournament.

Led by main presenter Mark Pougatch along with Laura Woods, ITV’s star-studded Euros squad will offer a wealth of insight, expertise and opinion from a punditry line-up of Ian Wright, Roy Keane, Gary Neville, Karen Carney, Graeme Souness, Eni Aluko, Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou, Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Röhl and refereeing analyst Christina Unkel.

Commentary will come from Sam Matterface, Clive Tyldesley, Seb Hutchinson, Pien Meulensteen and Joe Speight, supported by co-commentators Lee Dixon, Ally McCoist, and Andros Townsend, with Gabriel Clarke reporting from the England camp, Connie McLaughlin with the Scotland squad, and Celina Hinchcliffe rounding up the news from the tournament.

UK television coverage of the tournament kicks off on ITV1 & ITVX [plus STV & STV Player in Scotland] on June 14, with exclusive live coverage of the opening match between hosts Germany and Scotland in Munich. ITV will show England’s final Group game against Slovenia and will have picks one, two and three of the Round of 16 as well as first pick of the Semi-finals.

ITV will show what is likely to be one of the most anticipated early tournament games - the Group B match between Spain, who are among the favourites, and Italy, the holders. ITV’s Group stage coverage includes games featuring many pundits’ favourites, France [against Austria on 17 June] as well as other heavy-hitters in Portugal [v Turkey on 22 June], Croatia [v Spain on 15 June] and Belgium [v Slovakia on 17 June].

Moving into the knockout rounds, ITV will have the first three picks, plus the fifth and seventh picks from the Round of 16 ties, the second and fourth Quarter-final picks and first pick of the Semi-finals. Both ITV and the BBC will show the Final. All ITV games will be shown on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player.

In the build up, throughout the tournament and beyond, comprehensive Euros content will be available on ITVX. Exclusive mini-highlights shows of every tournament match will be available soon after the live coverage finishes.

And from early June, a mix of classic archive matches and documentaries focussing on previous tournaments, plus highlights from Euro '96 and brand new content shows building up to this year's event will all be available on demand, and on a special Euros 24/7 Channel on ITVX.

ITV and ITVX’s live coverage, highlights shows, online and social media content, will capture all the action and all the talking points, so fans and viewers can immerse themselves in the tournament.”
