Jeff Stelling to make broadcast return to cover Liverpool clash after Sky Sports exit
Former Sky Sports Soccer Saturday presenter Jeff Stelling will return to UK football coverage next week.
Stelling will return to the screens in a presenting role as host of Prime Video’s Every Game Every Goal show, the on-demand streaming service has announced. The 68-year-old left Sky Sports at the end of last season after being in his position for over 25 years.
The 68-year-old, who joined Sky in 1992, took on hosting duties for what was originally ‘Sports Saturday’ in 1994. He was replaced on ‘Soccer Saturday’ by Simon Thomas during the summer.
Prime Video has revealed that Every Game Every Goal on December 6 will show all the goals and key moments from every game as soon as they go in across all six of the evening’s fixtures, including Sheffield United v Liverpool. Everton's game against Newcastle United will not be part of the show as they play at Goodison Park on Thursday night.

The former Football Focus and BBC Breakfast presenter Dan Walker, who now presents 5 News, will also host some of Prime Video’s new shows, which will cover two rounds of Premier League fixtures.
Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer and Patrice Evra will return to Prime Video’s coverage as pundits alongside Michael Owen, Eni Aluko, Roberto Martinez, Jermain Defoe and Stuart Pearce. The show’s presenting and commentary team will bring the return of Gabby Logan, Ally McCoist, Jon Champion, Clive Tyldesley, Robyn Cowen, Jim Rosenthal and Guy Mowbray.
