Sky Sports trounce BT in Premier League viewing figures battle – Telegraph.co.uk

^{BT Sport have struggled to keep up with Sky this season}

That could give BT Sport cause for concern when it inherits the exclusive rights to all Uefa club football this summer.

Sky Sports managing director Barney Francis said: “We’ve offered 49 of the top 50 matches two seasons running now, showing that Sky Sports continues to be the home of the matches that matter. Football fans should expect more of the same from Sky Sports next season and of course, more matches and an even stronger selection of picks from 2016-17.

Thierry Henry, who chose to join Sky ahead of BT upon moving into punditry last year, added: “This is why I chose Sky Sports. I wanted to work on the best matches and this season has been an incredible experience. I can’t wait for more of the same when we’re back in August.”
