JoeF, you will be lucky if you get BBC World as for football I don't think so.

Actually they show champions league games on ESPN/ ESPN2 both of which are available in Dom Rep hotels - commentary will be in spanish though so better than nothing. No saying though that they will choose this game to televise but I would imagine there's a better than 50/50 chance.

if you cant get it in your room, there will more than likely be a bar nearby that will show it.

This is often not the case in DR as many of the hotels are so isolated there isn't a call for it like there is in Europe but having said that Sosua is the one place my guys DID find a sports bar showing English matches, I hope the poster managed to find it. :D

If you are staying in peurto plata Hemingways at the shopping mall does show some of the more premiership games.If you go in and it isnt on and the place is almost empty and there are 12 of you you stand a good chance of watching it if you ask them to switch channels.

Edited to say oops just seen the original posting date but glad you saw it.Will leave my post up in case anyone going to the area needs this information.
