The Voice UK battles of 2019 start tonight and here we reveal the first battle pairings and song choices.
In the battles, the coaches will pit the singers in their teams against one another in a series of sing-offs.
First, coaches will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Tom Jones and Olly Murs give their teams a pep talk and some top tips before they’re paired up to work on their performance.
In each battle, one act will win and progress through to the knockouts, which will air in March.
But it’s not over just then for the loser with the other coaches able to steal acts that their rivals reject, securing them for their team in the knockout rounds.
However each coach only has one steal to use so they’re sure to be extra picky about who they poach.
Those acts that aren’t stolen are off home, out of the competition for good, while the contestants that survive the battles go through to the knockout rounds
Saturday sees the first of three rounds of battles on ITV from 8PM.
