MotD's Mark Chapman to also host some of Sky's live Premier League coverage
Chapman is one of three new presenters on the BBC's Saturday night highlights show, rotating with Kelly Cates and Gabby Logan, following Gary Lineker's departure at the end of last season. But Sky Sports has announced the 51-year-old, who has presented some of its Carabao Cup matches, is also going to host its Premier League coverage, along with Cates and David Jones. (L-R) Kelly Cates, Chapman and Gabby Logan are the new Match of the Day hosts (BBC) It means Chapman and Cates will have to juggle their commitments to both broadcasters – Chapman is first up in the MOTD hot-seat this coming Saturday evening. But Sky's chief sports officer Jonathan Licht believes the cross-channel pollination will be a hit. 'We're delighted that Mark's joining us alongside Kelly and Dave,' Licht said as he launched Sky's coverage plans for the new season, which will see the broadcaster show a minimum of 215 live Premier League matches. 'Clearly we have more games this season, we needed more presenters. I'm not going to go into all the details of how many games Mark will do, but Mark will work across the Carabao Cup and Premier League. Chapman will juggle stints with Sky and the BBC (Richard Sellers/PA) 'He will work weekends, yes, and we'll work with him and Kelly. We're delighted that Kelly is working on Match of the Day next season as well. 'We'll work with both of those to work through our schedule and we've got control of the calendar in terms of the picking of the matches. We're all adults and we'll see how it goes. 'It's clearly new territory, but we're looking forward to having everybody on board.' Sky Sports have also rebranded 'Super Sunday' to 'Supersized Super Sunday', as when one or more matches are moved to a Sunday due to European competitions, they will all be shown live with a multi-view option available. Sunday's coverage will end with a new analysis show, 'Extra Time', hosted by former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher.
