🇹🇷 Turkiye Super Kupasi: TV channel, kick-off times and live streaming in the UK

The Turkish Süper Kupa is not played at the start of the season but in midwinter. Where almost every European super cup serves as a curtain-raiser in July or August, this one settles into January, during the league's winter break. That calendar changes everything you can expect from it: the sides that turn up are no longer the ones from the summer window but the mid-season ones, with their injuries, their winter signings and half a league campaign already behind them. The winner launches nothing at all, then; it confirms something already under way. For the viewer it is a match that matters in the middle of a stretch when Turkish football usually is not playing, and that alone makes it an occasion. Kick-off falls in the late afternoon, Turkish time.
