Fleetwood Town's 2026/27 League Two schedule includes five confirmed live television broadcasts on Sky Sports. The Cod Army's fixtures against Oldham Athletic, Shrewsbury Town, Rotherham United, Tranmere Rovers, and Colchester United have all been selected for coverage, as reported by RadioTimes.com.
Fleetwood currently holds 9th place in League Two with four points from their opening two matches. Their record stands at one win and one draw, with a single goal scored and none conceded. This solid defensive start leaves them just two points behind early leaders Barnet.
Which Fleetwood Town matches are on TV?
The first televised match arrives on Tuesday, 1 September 2026, when Fleetwood hosts Oldham Athletic at Highbury Stadium. Kick-off is set for 7:45pm UK time on Sky Sports+. Just four days later, another home game is scheduled for broadcast. The Saturday lunchtime clash with Shrewsbury Town on 5 September will also be shown on Sky Sports+, starting at 12:30pm.
October brings a third home fixture to television screens. Fleetwood's meeting with Rotherham United on Saturday 17 October is another 12:30pm kick-off slated for Sky Sports+. The broadcast schedule then shifts to a prime evening slot in November. The match against Tranmere Rovers on Saturday 14 November will be shown on the main Sky Sports Football channel with a 5:30pm start.

How to watch League Two football this season?
Sky Sports is the primary broadcaster for League Two throughout the 2026/27 campaign. The network plans to show over 1,000 live games across the EFL, Carabao Cup, and EFL Trophy. A significant portion of these matches will be available on the Sky Sports+ streaming service. Additionally, ITV will broadcast ten live EFL games during the season, offering another free-to-air option for fans.
The regular League Two season begins on Saturday 15 August 2026 and concludes on Saturday 8 May 2027. The play-off final to decide the fourth and final promotion spot is scheduled for Saturday 29 May 2027 at Wembley Stadium. You can track all the key dates on our dedicated fixtures page.
What is the early League Two context?
The television picks come as the new season is already underway. After the first two weekends, Barnet and Crewe Alexandra lead the table. At the other end, Salford City, Rochdale, and Shrewsbury Town are yet to register a point. Fleetwood's position in the upper half provides a positive platform. Their goal difference of +1 reflects a tight, organised start under the management team.
Four promotion places are available this season, with three teams going up automatically and one more via the play-offs. Only two clubs face relegation to the National League, making the battle for survival potentially less intense than the fight for the top spots. The current standings show a tightly packed division.
What comes next for Fleetwood Town?
The confirmed TV schedule gives fans multiple opportunities to follow the team from home. These high-profile slots also increase the club's exposure at a critical early stage of the season. With a solid defensive record established, the focus will turn to converting draws into wins to close the gap on the leaders. The upcoming televised matches against promotion rivals like Rotherham and Tranmere will be significant tests. Managerial plans and squad fitness can be monitored on our squad page as the season progresses.
