The SPFL have agreed an update to their deal with Premier Sports which will see even more Premiership games screened live next season.
The change will mean two post-split bottom six matches will be shown live by the broadcaster at the tail end of the 2025/26 season.
A five-season contract was signed last year which allowed Premier Sports to show 20 Premiership games a season, but they were only permitted pre-split matches.
However, positive discussions between the pair and Sky Sports, the league's other broadcast partner, means further games will now be available for fans.
Premier Sports will now screen 22 live Premiership games a season.

SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster said: “This is great news for Scottish football fans and our William Hill Premiership clubs.
“We know supporters have been keen to tune into the most exciting games in the bottom six as clubs battle to avoid relegation, and we’ve been discussing that situation with our broadcast partners over recent months.
“We’d like to thank Sky Sports and Premier Sports for their support in agreeing this change to their broadcast contracts, and for their continued excellent coverage of our national game.”
Richard Webb, director of operations at Premier Sports, commented: “We’re delighted to be expanding our SPFL coverage to include the matches that matter right to the very end of the season.
These post-split games often carry huge drama and significance and we’re proud to bring them live to fans from next season.
“We would like to thank the SPFL and Sky for making this possible. Alongside our growing portfolio of Scottish football coverage, this is another great step forward for Premier Sports in Scotland.”
