According to distributors Intermedia: “Football Extra is a new full-colour tabloid packed with everything the football punter could need.
Each issue features a double-page spread betting preview of every Premier League match, complete with key odds and stats. The paper also features in-depth coverage of the Championship, Leagues One and Two, plus Scottish and non-league football.
Football Extra also includes European coverage, with all the major and minor leagues previewed, along with the Champions and Europa League games. In addition, the paper will feature detailed form guides for all the teams in the major leagues, along with betting advice on the week's games.
Football Extra’s Liverpool-based editorial team of 10 is led by former Sun journalist Steve Mullen.
Commenting on the launch, Mullen said: "Football Extra is the paper for anyone who likes to have a bet on football. We're presenting top-class analysis in an accessible way backed up by a range of key stats, form and odds. Even if you're not a big punter, Football Extra will arm readers with everything they need to know.”
