Rebecca Lowe returns to NBC’s Premier League desk after a whirlwind World Cup summer

Rebecca Lowe returned to NBC’s Premier League desk after an exciting summer covering the World Cup. This was the highlight of her broadcast career as the lead host of Fox Sports’ World Cup coverage. Lowe, Robbie Earle, Robbie Mustoe, and Tim Howard are in England for the start of the season. Lowe expressed that returning to NBC felt like going home to her family, as she had previously worked alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Thierry Henry, and Alexi Lalas.

She praised them for being brilliant, challenging, and keeping her on her toes, while also being glad to be back with Robbie Earle and Robbie Mustoe, who she considers her three big brothers. The studio crew has been with NBC since the Premier League coverage started in 2013, with Howard becoming a full-time studio analyst in 2020 after retiring as a player.

Lowe's World Cup experience was rewarding on a personal level and in terms of audience figures and general conversation. She believes Arsenal can defend their title after winning the Premier League for the first time since 2006, with Chelsea as a possible dark horse.
