    Good shout I think as there is no British involvement, or at least two of those games.

    Yes. I wouldn't be surprised if BT Sport picked it up. I also wouldn't be surprised if ITV4 were interested

    Portugal vs Sweden and Ukraine vs France will probably be great ties, but they'll probably be on at the same time as the England friendlies against Chile and Germany so won't get high ratings. BT Sport is a definite possibility.

    Could easily see ITV4 picking at least one up, depending on KO times, maybe 2

    As BT showed the first legs of the African play-off legs, is it a given they'd show the second legs, also scheduled for that period?

    Can see Eurosport showing the Jordan vs Uruguay tie, especially the leg in Jordan.

    New Zealand vs Mexico would also make interesting viewing, though KO times are 6am and in Mexico, could be around 3am

    ITV have the England friendlies so may just focus on that.

    I would expect BT Sport or Sky Sports to get these playoffs.
    All 4 for 1 broadcaster would be great but unlikely
    2 each would be nice too and none behind an SD red button.

    I'm not expecting any terrestrial broadcaster to take these.

    Sky or BT should pick them up cracking games for football fans in this country especially Sweden against Portugal.

    To witness the French not qualifying would be great as would seeing Iceland qualify for the first time ever.

    BT Sport and Eurosport would be the likely channels to show at least some of these games. Hopefully live where possible but even delayed would be good.

    They'll hype that as Ibrahimovic vs Ronaldo.

    The best of the eight matches on offer. On the one hand, the World Cup will be poorer without Ronaldo or Ibrahimovic, on the other hand, it will be fun to see one or the other devastated at not going.

    Seems odd there is no sign of the first leg being show, taking a bit of a gamble showing just the second, imagine if it turns out to be a 3 or 4 nil thrashing?

    Would rather Ronaldo doesn't go. Means less time for him to spend rolling around on the floor, diving, and sitting on the ground with his arms outstretched saying "where's my freekick/penalty ref?"

    Eurosport has the 1st leg of Jordan v Uruguay on 13th November - but apparently not the 2nd leg.

    You would think someone would pick up the second leg of Uruguay v Jordan. Maybe as you guys have said. BT Sport.

    I will watch as many games as I can so the different KO times are good for me.

    They do show Latin football so yes, I suppose it does.
