Matthew Couch (born 30 June 1974) is an English former professional snooker player.

During a professional career lasting from 1992 to 2012, Couch had little success in ranking events, although he reached the quarter-finals of the UK Championship in 1998, and his highest break is 141 from 2002. He returned to the Main Tour for the 2008/2009 season, and survived due to a fine run in the World Championship qualifiers, including a 10–3 victory over former champion John Parrott. In October 2010, Couch had one of his best results to date, reaching the final of the 2010 Brugge Open, where he lost 4-2 against former World Champion Shaun Murphy. He dropped off the snooker tour at the end of the 2011/2012 season.

Couch is also an official World Snooker coach, and currently resides in Scunthorpe.
