BBC and ITV confirm World Cup 2018 coverage
The BBC and ITV have confirmed how they will split TV coverage of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
BBC One will show England’s opening two games, which will see them face Tunisia (Monday 18 June, 7pm) and Panama (Sunday 24 June, 1pm). The BBC will also have the first two choices of quarter final games, including England’s match if they progress.
ITV will show the last England group game against Belgium and will have first pick in the round of 16.
In the Group games, the BBC will also show the hotly anticipated clash between Spain and Ronaldo’s Portugal – the European Champions, two peak time matches with Lionel Messi’s Argentina and two of the games with World Champions Germany.
Both BBC and ITV will show the final live.

Hi got all hd channels except itv hd for world cup not great in sd got sky hd box 1.2 dish with black ultra twin lnb la nucia area outside benidorm
No ITV HD will be that either your dish is slightly too small for those channel where you are, the black ultra twin lnb is not the best for pulling in those channels, your dish is not aligned correctly…any or all three of these may be the issue
