The World Cup will be screened on free-to-air TV, with BBC and ITV sharing rights. They will show different games, but both will broadcast the final.

Each will have a mix of hosts, expert pundits, and commentato­rs.

WATCH ON BBC

The BBC kicks off by showing Qatar v Ecuador tomorrow at 4pm. It will also screen England v Iran on Monday at 1pm and Wakes v Iran on Friday, at 10am.

It will also screen Wales v England on Tuesday, November 29, at 7pm.

Gary Lineker, below, is the main BBC host. The ex-england striker helped the Three Lions reach the 1990 World Cup semifinals. He will be supported by broadcaste­rs Gabby Logan, Mark Chapman and Alex Scott, left. Pundits include Rio Ferdinand, Alan Shearer, Jurgen Klinsmann, Jermaine Jenas,

Micah Richards, Vincent Kompany, Gilberto Silva, Didier Drogba and Pablo Zabaleta – so there will be a lot of internatio­nal expertise on hand.
