Sports betting analyst Erin Dolan will be live in studio from ESPN's headquarters in Bristol, Conn., providing expert, in-game betting insight for fans throughout the UFL Championship.

UFL Championship AudioCast on ESPN+

In addition to the traditional game presentation on ABC, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+, subscribers to ESPN+ can also fully immerse in the sounds of the game with the AudioCast alternate viewing experience.

Bryan Jaroch, ESPN Vice President, Sports Production:

"The UFL Championship AudioCast on ESPN+ will give fans the opportunity to truly experience the sounds of the game with microphones on players, coaches and referees without commentators. In addition to mic'd up star players and coaches, we'll have four microphones on the TruVision Mindfly chest cameras with an offensive and defensive player from each team.

In collaboration with the UFL, we have worked all season long to establish an unprecedented array of microphones and cameras to bring fans inside the game like they've never seen or heard before. Our work culminates on Saturday night in primetime, in the biggest game, with this dynamic alternate viewing experience."
