Why isn't Everton vs Crystal Palace FA Cup game on TV in UK today?

Fans in the UK will not be able to watch tonight's replay at Goodison Park

Everton and Crystal Palace meet in a FA Cup replay later today.

There was little to split the two teams in a bore draw at a rainy Selhurst Park earlier this month, forcing both managers into another game crowbarred into their already busy schedule.

Perhaps the standout moment of the game was Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s controversial red card, one that has since been overturned after much criticism.

With Luton awaiting the winner in the next round, a victory for either side would raise fresh hope of a deep run. Improvements will be needed of course but at least tonight's game will result in a victor.

Fans in the UK, however, will not be able to watch the game live. Only two of the eight FA Cup replays will be broadcast live on TV, with tonight’s selection being Blackpool vs Nottingham Forest by ITV, with the BBC opting for Bristol City vs West Ham yesterday.

Still, supporters can keep across all the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog!
