However, the planned output has been severely affected by technical issues.

This has resulted in channel changes for broadcasts of some matches.

Sky Sports has apologised to fans for the issues with a statement on social media.

A statement read: “We are experiencing technical issues across our football output today, which is affecting our advertised coverage.”

One game that has been affected by the issues is Leicester City‘s crucial clash at Fratton Park against Portsmouth.

The match was due to be shown on both Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Football.

However, the stream on Sky Sports Football is instead showing Derby County‘s fixture with Oxford United.

Fans have been left furious on social media as they reacted to the update from the broadcaster.
