ITV viewers will notice a change to the Emmerdale and Coronation Street TV schedules this week as the broadcaster will air a football match on Tuesday evening (October 6).
It’s not unusual for ITV to broadcast a football match and this week, the UEFA Nations League will disrupt the usual soap schedule.
Here's what we know about the TV schedule for soaps over the next few days.
Emmerdale and Coronation Street soap schedules to change this week
While Emmerdale and Coronation Street will mostly follow their usual schedules this week, there is an exception.
That’s because a Nations League match will see Scotland take on Slovenia at 7.45pm on Tuesday, with coverage starting from 7.30pm.
These broadcast times mean the football match will cross over both slots for Emmerdale (8pm start) and Coronation Street (8.30pm start).

At the time of writing, it’s unclear whether fans will be able to watch an episode on Sunday instead.
Corrie star joins Loose Women panel
In September, Coronation Street star Samie Longchambon revealed she would become a panellist on Loose Women.
She starred in her first episode on Wednesday, September 16.
Loose Women has gone through a few major changes this year after two panellists, Denise Welch and Nadia Sawalha, left the show.
When announcing the news, Longchambon said she had never appeared on the panel before but had been a guest on the show.
At the time, she said on Instagram: "I just wanted to let you all know that tomorrow I’m going to be a loose lady, I’m going to be on the panel of Loose Women.
"I’ve never actually been on the panel before, I’ve been a guest but I’ve never actually sat there for the whole show chatting, so I’m really looking forward to it.
"I’m also slightly nervous but they do say do something every day that scares you, so that’s what mine’s going to be tomorrow.
"So if you’re around, it’s half 12 until half one, so grab a brew and join us."
