In recent years these contests have been full of confrontation, skill, and goals. Rarely do they disappoint – British-based fans will just be hoping that nothing happens in the opening 15 minutes.

It’s because of a long-standing regulation in the UK that football cannot be screened live on television between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on a Saturday afternoon.
