Coverage is available on iFollow for fans in the UK and overseas, with revenue from match passes purchased going to the Sky Blues.

4-camera iFollow video coverage is available in HD and as this is a home game it will also include commentary provided by BBC CWR, with City legend Steve Ogrizovic.

Sky Sports Red Button

The game is available to watch via the Red Button on Sky Sports Football.

This is one camera standard definition coverage, without replays, and with commentary from Sky Sports.

Coventry City do not receive additional revenue from fans watching via this method. We are not able to provide any technical support for fans watching via the Red Button.

 

PIRACY:

The EFL and Coventry City are actively taking steps to prevent illegal streaming of matches to other fans via accounts on Facebook, YouTube etc, 

Illegal streaming is depriving Coventry City of important revenue at a time when funds for the Club are already affected by the Coronavirus Pandemic, and when money received from iFollow is vital in providing support for the Football Club and Manager Mark Robins.

The EFL are actively looking to prosecute people caught streaming these games illegally.

Commentary on iFollow - Clarification

For home games, iFollow video coverage will continue to also include commentary from BBC CWR as previously.

Unfortunately for away games, current BBC coronavirus reporting restrictions mean that BBC commentary teams, including BBC CWR, are now not attending away games in person. This means that the commentary that we normally provide will no longer be available for away matches.

BBC CWR are providing their audio commentary from their studios using our video footage which is streamed on iFollow - this means it is not possible for this audio commentary to then be added to the video footage on iFollow.

For all away games, the default audio setting for all Sky Blues supporters is now the in-stadium sound. Subject to availability, a feed from the opposition club commentary will be provided as an additional option for Sky Blues fans.
