National League TV picks: BT Sport announce 14 live matches

The National League and BT Sport are delighted to announce no fewer than 14 live matches as we gear up for the return of football in little over three weeks’ time.

Following the release of the 2020/21 fixtures on Tuesday, BT Sport have confirmed their selections for the first three months of the new campaign, with every team appearing on BT Sport. 

BT Sport are once again fully committed to their incredible coverage of the Vanarama National League with the season’s first month seeing six exclusively live matches.

Their seventh year bringing the action to life begins with one of the league's new boys on the opening day.

King's Lynn Town and Yeovil Town raise the curtain on Saturday 3 October and the match at The Walks gets underway at 5.20pm.

Four days later it’s Meadow Lane as National League North play-off winners Altrincham head to Notts County kicking off at 7.45pm.

The games in the first four weeks come thick and fast. On Saturday 10 October, it’s Aldershot Town’s turn to host a televised clash as returning Macclesfield Town fall under the camera’s gaze.

Wrexham vs Maidenhead United follows just two days later - the Monday night action comes from the Racecourse, before a big one between promotion hopefuls as Chesterfield and Stockport County do battle on Saturday 17 October. 

The month concludes with Torquay United’s visit to Hartlepool United.

November starts with Notts County facing Stockport County, before a first ever trip to Weymouth for a league match for BT Sport with Wrexham arriving in Dorset.

Wealdstone are in the spotlight on Saturday 21 November for their derby with Sutton United, with December starting at Weymouth with FC Halifax Town’s visit.

Solihull Moors v Bromley is the selected game a week later, with Dover Athletic and Dagenham & Redbridge offering a festive fix on Boxing Day.

The final game of 2020 is Woking’s home fixture with Eastleigh on Monday 28 December, followed by the New Year beginning at Barnet as Boreham Wood make the short trip to the Hive on Saturday 2 January.
