From match day 13, Serie BKT returns to Rai. It will be on Rai Sport, with a dedicated programme on Saturday evenings, curated by the football editorial team. The agreement will allow the league to expand its visibility and give fans a new channel to follow the progress of the Italian second division.
The public broadcaster has accepted the market offer that the Lega Serie B made available to broadcasters in recent weeks.
The programme, which will be called “Serie B al 90°”, will be broadcast at midnight and will contain all the highlights of the matches played on Friday and Saturday. It will be presented by Giacomo Capuano. He will be joined in the studio by guests and commentators. “Serie B al 90°” will then be available after the live broadcast on Rai Play, Rai’s free video streaming platform that allows viewers to watch programmes on demand.
The purchase of the Highlights package will also allow Rai to broadcast other weekend matches in the various sports programmes scheduled.
The agreement with Rai, which had been missing since the 2020/2021 season, is for two years and includes any playoffs and playouts.
It kicks off tomorrow, Saturday 22 November, with the weekend’s matches on the 13th match day.
