Old foes Carragher and Neville to team up for Monday Night Football on Sky Sports as Redknapp lands revamped Saturday show

Sky have announced their exciting line-up for the new season, with Jamie Redknapp appearing on a revamped Saturday show in front of a live audience and Jamie Carragher joining Gary Neville on Monday Night Football.

Sportsmail columnist Redknapp, along with host David Jones, will be the face of Sky's revamped Saturday show – with a live Premier League game – and a live audience to debate the major issues.

And then Carragher and Neville, two outspoken former rivals, will go head-to-head on their Monday night show. It is believed Carragher has been in training throughout the summer to prepare for the task.

Sky are also offering a free opening weekend, as they look to fend off the threat of debut broadcasters BT, who offer their entire sports package to their broadband users at no extra cost.

A press release from the broadcaster said: 'Sky Sports will launch its biggest ever season of Premier League football by offering free live action from the first day of the season for every home in Britain.

‘From August, Sky Sports viewers can enjoy more live Barclays Premier League matches than ever before. There will be 116 live fixtures on Sky Sports featuring the big head to heads and every club at least five times across Saturday evenings, Sunday double-headers, Monday nights and bank holidays.

‘To celebrate the first day of the Premier League season and Sky Sports’ new line up of football, programmes from Sky Sports 1 will replace the regular programming on Sky 2 (on Sky and other pay TV services) and Pick TV (on Freeview and You View) on Saturday 17th August. The takeover means millions of home viewers can enjoy a live Premier League match, a Football League fixture, plus a host of other football shows at no cost.

‘The free day will include the brand new show, Saturday Night Football, for Sky’s 5.30pm Saturday evening Premier League fixture. The show is part of Sky Sports’ new look "weekend of football" which also includes the new pairing of Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville for Monday Night Football and a new Saturday schedule running from Soccer AM all the way through to extended evening highlights of all 3pm matches.’

Barney Francis, managing director of Sky Sports, said: 'It’s our biggest ever season of Premier League football and we’re inviting every home in Britain to enjoy the opening day. All fans can join the action as we launch our new Saturday schedule for the most eagerly awaited Premier League season in years.

'With more matches than ever before, including 116 live Premier League fixtures, there’s never been a better time to be a Sky Sports viewer. If you don’t have Sky Sports, this is a great opportunity to sample what our football coverage has to offer throughout the year.'

Redknapp added: 'There’s so much to look forward to with the new football season including more live Premier League matches on Sky than ever before. This is a brilliant way for everyone to follow the action from first day of the Premier League season with Sky Sports.'

Sky Sports executive producer for football, Gary Hughes, said: 'For over 20 years we’ve offered our viewers the best live football coverage with brilliant analysis and incredible innovations.

'Our new programmes and schedule will raise the bar again, providing viewers with an unrivalled weekend of football alongside week night action from the UEFA Champions League, Capital One Cup, Football League and international fixtures.'
