Tottenham are set to welcome Ipswich Town in a fixture which won’t be televised in the UK.
It’s one of four games in the Premier League today (November 10). The visitors, who have only managed to amount five points from their first 10 games, face a daunting task on their travels in the capital.
Spurs have been formidable at home this season, losing just once and boasting a six-game winning streak across all competitions. On the other hand, Ipswich are yet to taste victory this season, with Leicester’s stoppage-time equaliser denying them a win at Portman Road last weekend.
The match promises to be a goal fest, with Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs leading the league in scoring and Kieran McKenna’s Tractor Boys having the second-worst defensive record behind Wolves. However, UK fans will miss out on the live action.
Why is Tottenham vs Ipswich not on TV in the UK?
The game was rescheduled to Sunday due to Tottenham’s Europa League match away against Galatasaray on Thursday. Manchester United and Chelsea, who are hosting Leicester City and Arsenal respectively, find themselves in the same predicament.
The London derby at Stamford Bridge will be Sky Sports’ Super Sunday main event at 4:30pm, but neither of the other matches were chosen for broadcast. Instead, viewers will be watching Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle.
Starting next season, all matches except those kicking off at 3pm on Saturdays will be televised live in the UK. However, for now, teams competing in Europe’s second and third tiers can’t bank on their domestic fixtures being shown.

How to watch Tottenham vs Ipswich
While the match won’t be televised in the UK, it will be broadcast by local Premier League TV rights holders in other countries. For instance, Sky Germany will be showing the game.
Canal+ in France have opted for United’s match instead, but fans in the United States can tune in as NBCUniversal holds the rights to all 380 games in the Premier League this season.
Fans based in the UK will have to hold out for highlights which will be released by Sky shortly after the final whistle. Extended coverage and analysis will be available on Match of the Day 2, airing from 10:30pm on BBC One.
