The UK Saturday 3pm blackout, explained

During the Saturday afternoon closed period - roughly 2:45pm to 5:15pm UK time - no live football may be broadcast on UK television. The rule dates back to UEFA's Article 48 and is intended to protect attendances across the football pyramid. It applies to overseas leagues shown in the UK as well, which is why this guide lists the channel for each match in every country, not just the UK.

Why isn't a 3pm Saturday game on TV in the UK?

No live football may be broadcast in the UK during the Saturday afternoon closed period (roughly 2:45-5:15pm UK time) - a rule rooted in UEFA's Article 48, meant to protect match attendances. It applies to overseas leagues shown in the UK too, so a Ligue 1 match in that window won't be live on UK TV, though it is broadcast in other countries.
