ITV are reportedly set to make big changes to their EFL highlights show.
The new-look format will see the running time significantly reduced and pundits axed.
Presenters Hugh Woozencroft and Jules Breach will stay on but will no longer host the show from a studio, claim The Mirror.
Instead they will be pitchside at an EFL ground, with Woozencroft and Breach to rotate presenting duties.
Highlights from all EFL matches will continue to be aired along with player and manager post-match interviews.
But there will no longer be analysis provided by the likes of Sam Parkin, Dean Ashton and Jamie Mackie, all of whom worked as pundits in the previous format of the show.

ITV are heading into the second year of their two-year deal to host EFL highlights, with Quest previously airing the show.
Interest in the league has grown significantly with 21.7million fans attending matches last season – the highest since 1953-54.
That has helped EFL clubs agree a TV deal with Sky Sports worth almost £1billion.
The agreement will see more than 1,000 live matches broadcast starting from the 2024-25 campaign.
