BT Sport unveils Soccer Saturday rival

BT Sport will go head-to-head with Sky Sports' popular Soccer Saturday after launching a new scores programme for the new season.

ITV football presenter Mark Pougatch will host the new BT Sport Score which will air every Saturday afternoon from August 13 between 2.30pm and 5pm.

Pougatch will be joined by a host of pundits such as Jermaine Jenas, Harry Kewell, Robbie Savage, Harry Redknapp, David James and ex-referee Howard Webb.

It will be the warm-up for BT's Premier League coverage with Saturday evening 5.30pm kick-offs moving to BT for the new season. Sky will now show the Saturday lunch-time kick-offs.

BT Sport bosses say the new show will "keep people up-to-date with all the news whilst offering diverse opinions in a relaxed and informal way".

BT are also launching Premier League Tonight at 8pm on Saturdays. It will see Jake Humphrey and pundits from the live 5.30pm match stay on to talk about the day's matches and big moments from the day.

Fletch and Sav, which aired on BT Sport last season on Saturday mornings, won't be returning for the new season.

BT Sport Europe has also be renamed BT Sport 3.
