Today we take a look at the best of the live football on TV on this week.

There is no Champions League this week but the Carling Cup is back and that makes up two of the 11 live games on this week. Here we preview the week ahead.

Monday

Two games live on TV tonight, a live offering form the Russian Premier League on ESPN at 5pm and what promises to be an exciting game between Brighton and West Ham from the Championship, we feel this game should be a good one for a Monday evening’s entertainment.

Tuesday

Three live games on Tuesday, Granada host the mighty Barca at 7pm on Sky and Juventus host Fiorentina live on ESPN, but if its giant killing you are looking for then Aldershot v Man United is the game for you and the match that football on the TV will be watching.

Wednesday

Four live games on TV on Wednesday. Hibs v Celtic is only live on BBC Scotland and Wolves V Man City is the live offering form Wednesdays Carling Cup action on Sky. If neither of these tickle your fancy then Napoli v Udinese is live on ESPN and Real Madrid v Villarreal is live on Sky from 9pm.

Thursday

Not much too much live football to chose from on Thursday, another Serie A offering on ESPN with Palermo v Leece or you can watch the future of football as England U16’s take on Wales U16s live on Sky

No games on Friday but a big weekend to look forward to then. Don’t forget if you love live football then you need our football on the TV app for Ipod, Iphone and Ipad
