Carabao Cup Last-16, League 1, League 2 and Scottish Premiership Matchday 9 games, plus PGA Tour golf from Mexico are the highlights of the sporting week from Tuesday 27th October through Thursday 29th October 2026.
Sky Sports and ITV1 on Tuesday 27th October and Wednesday 28th October have full coverage of the Carabao Cup 4th Round. All games are viewable on Sky Sports+ with Tuesday and Wednesday featuring a single match on Sky Sports Main Event or simulcast with ITV1 (Wednesday) with 8pm kick-offs. Tuesday 27th October sees Bradford City vs Peterborough United in an all-League 1 clash live on Sky Sports+ at 7:45pm. The carrot of a Quarter-Final is massive for both. The 8pm Sky Sports Main Event feature match is Fleetwood Town vs Arsenal. Unsurprisingly this a first competitive game between the two clubs, so expect a sell-out 5,300 crowd at Fleetwood’s Highbury Stadium.
Tuesday 27th October also sees EFL League 1 action with a couple of games affecting the top of the table – Oxford United vs Stockport County (Sky Sports+) and Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United (Sky Sports+)
Wednesday 28th October sees 4 kick-offs all on Sky Sports, namely Manchester City vs Brighton (7:30pm), Bournemouth vs Aston Villa (7:45pm), Fulham vs Crystal Palace (7:45pm) and Sunderland vs Brentford (7:45pm). ITV1 / Sky Sports Main Event features Liverpool vs Chelsea from Anfield at 8pm. Across the last 10 Premier League meetings at Anfield, Liverpool have won 4, Chelsea 1, and 5 have been draws, with Chelsea’s win here coming in 2021.
Wednesday 28th October features a full Scottish Premiership Matchday 11 set of fixtures with an intriguing match live on Sky Sports Football, kick-off 8pm. Rangers, who are well in touch with champions Celtic, have a tough trip to Tynecastle to play Hearts. Aberdeen vs Falkirk, Celtic vs Dundee United, Dundee vs Kilmarnock, St Johnstone vs Motherwell, and St Mirren vs Hibernian are the other Wednesday fixtures.
Thursday 29th October then sees Everton vs Newcastle available to Sky Sports subscribers via Sky Sports+. Newcastle across the last three completed EFL League Cups, have reached one semi-final (2025/26), lifted the trophy (2024/25), and suffered one Quarter-Final exit (2023/24). Everton reached the Quart-Finals in 2023/24, so this is a big opportunity for the home side.
