LIKE England and Spain, BBC and ITV will also being going head-to-on Sunday.
Both channels are showing the Women’s World Cup final, as the Lionesses aim to follow up their Euros glory by winning the biggest showpiece in football.
That means presenters Laura Woods and Gabby Logan will be competing for viewing figures.
While pundits like Alex Scott and Karen Carney will be offering their differing opinions on the game.
But, how do the hosts and pundits compare?
Laura Woods – ITV
The current jewel of TV sports presenting, Woods, 36, is now a staple for viewers of ITV Sport.

Her handling of the men’s World Cup last year in Qatar was championed and earlier this year she landed a new role as TNT’s Champions League host.
While talkSPORT listeners will already know her expertise and love of Arsenal, from when she hosted her popular breakfast show.
Woods has certainly stolen the style stakes during this tournament.
Gabby Logan – BBC
Logan, 50, is a seasoned pro of a sports presenter.

The daughter of the late Wales manager Terry Yorath, she began working for BBC Sport in 2007 following stints at Sky Sports and ITV Sport.
She has always been a huge advocate for women’s football and signed off from last year’s Euros final with a rallying cry for media and viewers to get behind the women’s game.
Off the screen, Logan is married to retired Scottish rugby player Kenny Logan, after they tied the knot in 2001.
Alex Scott – BBC
Former Arsenal star Scott has made TV presenting and punditry look a cinch.
Since 2019, she has worked across both BBC Sport and Sky Sports.
Scott, 38, has transcended football, appearing on The One Show and BBC Sports Personality of the Year.
Strictly Come Dancing producers also picked her as a contestant, where she came fifth on the 17th series of the show.
Karen Carney – ITV
36-year-old Carney played for Arsenal and is a Champions League winner.
Her credentials earned from her playing days scored her jobs with Sky Sports and Amazon Prime from 2019.
Solihull-born Carney was a part of the first all female line-up analysing a men’s football game at the World Cup last year.
The journalist also writes for a column for The Guardian.
Seema Jaswal – BBC
Seema, 38, started her career as a runner at Sky Sports, before scoring her first TV job in presenting as a roving reporter for CBBC Newsround.
In 2015, she relocated to India and became the face of Indian football for Star Sports presenting the Indian Super League and football show Lets Talk Football Star Sports.
But it’s since 2018 her career has really taken off.
In recent years, she’s appeared on BT Sport’s Champions League coverage, BBC’s Football Focus and much more.
Ellen White – BBC
As England’s all-time record scorer, White, 34, knows all about representing the Lionesses.
She was famously part of the team that lifted the Euros in 2022.
However, she came agonisingly close to winning the World Cup in 2015, but had to settle for a third-placed finish.
It’s no wonder she had to hold back tears as she delivered her verdict following England’s semi-final victory over Australia.
Eni Aluko – ITV
Aluko, 36, earned an impressive 102 caps for the Lionesses from 2004-2016.
Incredibly, she was called up into the international set-up when she was just 14.
After retiring from football, Aluko took on a job as the director of women’s football at Aston Villa.
A year later, she became the sporting director of Los Angeles-based Angel City FC before departing this year following a transition to a recruitment role.
Steph Houghton – BBC
Houghton suffered the misfortune of missing out on Sarina Wiegman’s World Cup squad.
That was after her stellar displays for her country in the Euros.
Currently, the 35-year-old is gearing up for another season with WSL side Manchester City.
Houghton is married to former Bradford City defender Stephen Darby, who was forced to retire in 2018 after he was diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
Jill Scott – ITV
Another famous Lioness of the Euros success, Scott’s aggression on the pitch scored her plenty of fans.
She famously caused a stir when a foul-mouth tirade against a German player was caught on camera, which she was forced to apologise for.
Scott, 36, has since retired and gone on to launch her own podcast, Jill Scott’s Coffee Club.
Last year, she capped off an incredible 2022 by winning I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
Fara Williams – BBC
As England’s most capped player – representing her country a whopping 177 times – Williams is well versed in the Lionesses.
She played for Everton, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Reading from 2004-2021.
She has had to battle hardship – and was homeless for seven years in the early part of her career living in hostels.
Williams now finds herself offering punditry for both the men’s and women’s game.
Emma Hayes – ITV
Since 2012, Hayes, 46, has been the head coach of Chelsea.
She has won an astonishing six WSL titles with the Blues during that period and is recognised as one of most successful coaches in the game.

Last year she received an OBE for her services to women’s football.
Hayes was forced to shut down reports linking her with the vacant Wimbledon post in 2021, calling it an insult to the women’s game.
