UK'S Saturday 3pm TV blackout rule will be BROKEN for the Club World Cup final with Channel 4 set to air the showpiece in the UAE if Chelsea win their semi-final

The FIFA Club World Cup is just around the corner and Channel 4 have announced that they will be showing the final live on TV if Chelsea make it through.

Their coverage of the final will break the UK's TV blackout rule which prevents live football matches from being televised between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on Saturday afternoons.

Champions League holders Chelsea will most likely feature in the final as they look to join Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Liverpool and Manchester United and lift the title for the first time in their history.
