Football fans will be able to watch live games on the box for a new monthly charge of just £18 thanks to a Sky Sports revamp.
Sky bosses have decided to ditch traditional numbered channels in favour of sport-specific ones, following on from the success of their Formula One product.
And that means supporters will be able to enjoy a cheaper viewing package focusing on the beautiful game if they don't want to pay for other sports.

Football will get two dedicated channels, cricket and golf will join F1 as standalone platforms, while Sky Sports Arena will show other sports such as rugby, tennis and wrestling.
The dedicated news channel, Sky Sports News HQ, is unaffected by the changes.
Sky Sports Mix, the free channel showcasing sport to the wider subscriber base, will also continue.
At present, new subscribers have to pay £49.50 per month for the cheapest sports package, so £18 bundles will be a welcome relief to many across the country.
