Will El Clasico be live on UK TV?
Confirmed information at this time suggests that El Clasico will not be live in the UK. This is as a result of the rule preventing live soccer matches from being aired in the United Kingdom between 14:45 and 17:15 (BST) on Saturdays. With the game between Barcelona and Real Madrid scheduled for 3:15pm (BST), La Liga rights holders Sky Sports will have to do with delayed coverage.
