BT Sport are hopeful of broadcasting their remaining contracted Scottish Premiership games once the coronavirus-enforced hiatus comes to an end.

The broadcaster recently confirmed they would be unable to provide football fans with refunds despite the beautiful game staying off telly as the COVID-19 virus outbreak sweeps the globe. The SPFL and SFA have shut down action indefinitely, leaving fans without their live footie fix.

A spokesperson for BT Sport said: "We apologise to customers about the changes to the BT Sport schedule this month due to the impact of Covid 19. The situation is evolving rapidly and we are working with the leagues to continue to broadcast live sport wherever possible and broadcast games when they are rescheduled over the coming months.

"We will continue to broadcast a wide range of BT Sport content including films and documentaries and we will update our customers as we have a clearer view of the remainder of the season."

Herald and Times Sport understands the broadcaster hopes to provide coverage of games when the league season eventually returns.

With an international break scheduled for next week, TV chiefs do not expect to miss out on too many games. It is not yet known when Scottish football will return after the SPFL and SFA's joint statement confirmed the season has been delayed. There have also been some claims the league could potentially be voided - though nothing is set in stone at this time.
