Is Everton v Wolves on TV?

Everton return to Hill Dickinson Stadium to face Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Carabao Cup, with kick-off set for 19:45 BST. This piece was refreshed on 19 September 2026 to confirm the latest broadcast details and bring the form guide up to date ahead of the tie.

David Moyes takes his side into the match on the back of an encouraging run of results, with a place in the next round of the competition up for grabs on home soil. Supporters checking in ahead of kick-off will want two things above all: whether the game is on television, and how Everton and Wolves have fared against each other recently. Both are covered below.

Updated introduction: Everton host Wolves at Hill Dickinson Stadium (19 September 2026)

Moyes has steadied Everton since returning to the dugout, and this Carabao Cup tie arrives at a useful moment. A cup run offers silverware ambitions, extra European qualification routes, and a chance to build momentum without disrupting a settled Premier League campaign. None of that matters, though, if Everton cannot deal with a Wolves side that has already beaten them once in this exact fixture in recent memory.

Hill Dickinson Stadium hosts the game, and a strong home crowd will expect Moyes’s players to make home advantage count. The manager has generally rotated his squad for cup football during his time at the club, though no confirmed team news has been published for this match at the time of writing.

Form and recent Carabao Cup history between Everton and Wolves

Everton head into the game unbeaten in five matches across all competitions. That run includes wins over Preston North End and Crystal Palace, along with draws against Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and AFC Bournemouth. It is a solid platform for Moyes, whose sides have tended to prioritise results and organisation over expansive football.

The recent history between these two clubs adds extra edge to the occasion. Wolves eliminated Everton from the same competition last season, winning at Molineux at this exact stage of the Carabao Cup. It is a result Moyes will not have forgotten, and one his players will be keen to put right in front of their own supporters. For more on the issues shaping selection and mood around the club this week, our talking points ahead of Wolves covers the wider picture.

Wolves arrive with form of their own to point to. Now playing their football in the Championship, they have won three of their last five matches, beating Sheffield United, Stoke City and Sheffield Wednesday. The broader head-to-head picture between the two clubs is close: across their last five meetings, Everton have won twice, Wolves once, and two matches have finished level.

Is Everton v Wolves on TV?

Yes. The match will be shown live in the UK on Sky Sports. That means supporters without a ticket for Hill Dickinson Stadium will still be able to watch the whole Carabao Cup tie as it happens.

Kick-off is scheduled for 19:45 BST, with Sky Sports building coverage around the match as part of its regular Carabao Cup broadcast slate. No confirmed alternative broadcaster or streaming platform has been named for this fixture, so Sky Sports remains the only verified way to follow the game live on television. Anyone wanting the fuller breakdown of channel numbers and build-up programming can refer back to our original broadcast guide for this tie, which this update sits alongside.

Supporters attending in person should still expect the usual pre-match build-up around the ground, even with cameras present for the broadcast. For those following from home, Sky Sports’ coverage is the confirmed route to seeing every kick of the match.

What happens next: Focus turns to Ipswich in Premier League

Once the Carabao Cup business is settled, attention at Everton switches straight back to the league. Moyes’s side face Ipswich Town in their next Premier League fixture, a game that will show whether the current unbeaten run can be extended in the top flight rather than just cup competition.

That match brings its own preparation, and supporters wanting to know who is taking charge can check confirmation of the referee for the Ipswich match. For now, though, the immediate task is clear: beat Wolves at Hill Dickinson Stadium and avoid a repeat of last season’s cup exit at the same stage.

Everton’s recent form gives Moyes a genuine platform to build from, but this fixture has already shown it can go against them. A strong performance in front of their own supporters would settle any lingering doubts before Premier League focus returns with the visit of Ipswich.
