Prior to Covid Sky had the rights to show a full re-run of the 'match of the day' at 8.30pm Saturdays, followed by 30 min highlights of other games.
This hasn't happened since covid.
It is possible any EPL streaming could be live or delayed if it happens at all

Article in today's Telegraph states BT have bid slightly less than they currently pay when the contract expires in June. As this hasn't been accepted it states they are likely to walk away from Premier Rugby Coverage and spend up to £40m on other sports such as Cricket.
Not sure if that means £40m was their bit for rugby or not, but the article also states CVC are trying to extract an increase on the current terms despite the covid situation.
