The Prime Video post-match coverage of Everton v. Man City a fantastic case study in favour of using studios rather than presenting pitchside - they are getting absolutely soaked!

They were in a studio at half-time, but not pre-match or post-match. Not sure why broadcasters (TNT and Sky also do the same) put the effort in erecting a studio for 10 minutes of use, it feels a bit pointless.

UPDATE: With thunder and lightning around Goodison Park, the presenting team relocated to the fourth or fifth row of one of the stands.

It's partly as a bail-out position in case anything means they can't use the pitchside pres - though the studio at West Ham is an open balcony so might not be much use in the event of crowd trouble. (TNT only used it for half time last week, so barely 10 minutes. It's where the talent tend to spend the match though so maybe useful if there's a lengthy interruption)
