Premier League — Where to Watch

The Premier League is the most widely resold football competition on earth, and that is exactly why a simple question — "where can I watch it?" — has no single answer. The league does not sell one global product. It sells its rights territory by territory, and each buyer then decides what to do with them: put them behind a subscription, sub-licence part of the package, or show a slice of it free to pull in viewers.

Two consequences follow. First, the same match can be paywalled in one country and free in the next. Second, services look inconsistent because they are: DAZN's Canadian and Spanish subscribers get the Premier League, DAZN's British ones do not. Here is who has it where.

Country	Who shows it	Free option
UK	Sky Sports (about 215 matches) and TNT Sports (about 52), under deals running to 2028-29	Highlights only, on BBC Match of the Day. No free live football, and the 3pm Saturday blackout still applies
Ireland	Sky Sports and TNT Sports, plus a separate Irish package listed by Premier Sports Ireland	None confirmed
United States	NBC and Peacock. Peacock carries the exclusive matches; USA Network carries the televised ones	None — there is no free live Premier League in the US
Canada	DAZN Canada	None
Australia	Stan Sport, all 380 matches, through 2027-28	Selected matches free on 9Now. The exact number is not published
Germany & Austria	Sky Deutschland, through the streaming service WOW	None
France	Canal+ holds the whole competition	None
Spain	DAZN carries the complete season. Movistar Plus+ has at least one match per round	None
Italy	Sky Italia and NOW, exclusively	None
Portugal	DAZN Portugal, exclusively, all 380 matches	One match per matchday free on LiveModeTV's YouTube channel
Netherlands	Viaplay (342 of 380 matches live)	None — Viaplay's free TV channel carries other sport
Nordics	Viaplay, exclusively across Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Iceland to 2027-28	None
India	JioHotstar	None confirmed for the league itself
Brazil	ESPN, through Disney+	CazéTV, free on YouTube, carries a weekly Premier League match. It is geo-locked to Brazil
South Africa	SuperSport on DStv. Only the Premium tier carries every SuperSport channel	None
MENA	beIN Sports, all 380 matches, to 2027-28. TOD streams every game	None
South Korea	Coupang Play, exclusively to 2030-31	None
Japan	U-NEXT's Soccer Pack, all matches	None

Amazon is out. Amazon Prime Video held a Premier League package in the previous cycle and holds none now — zero matches from 2025-26 onwards. A large number of guides still list it, and some of them are updated regularly, which tells you how quickly this market moves.

Can you watch it free?

Not really, and the honest answer is narrower than the marketing suggests. No market we checked offers the whole league without paying, and every genuinely free route below comes with a catch.

UK — Match of the Day highlights on the BBC. No live matches, and the 3pm Saturday blackout means the Saturday afternoon fixture is not shown live in Britain at any price.
Australia — 9Now carries selected marquee matches free with a free account, simulcast from Channel 9. The usual picks are the Saturday 12:30 and 15:00 UK kick-offs; the exact number of matches is not published.
Portugal — one match per matchday free on LiveModeTV's YouTube channel, under the DAZN rights deal.
Brazil — CazéTV carries a weekly match free on YouTube. It is a genuine rights-holder channel, but it is licensed for Brazil only, so it is not a workaround for anyone else.

How we define "free". Every option on this site is either a public broadcaster, a free ad-supported tier, an official free trial, or a rights-holder's own channel. We do not list or link to unlicensed rebroadcasts. Note that a VPN does not make a stream legal: reaching a service licensed for another country normally breaches that service's terms, and the bigger platforms actively block it.

The cheapest legal route

One weekend, UK — a NOW day pass at £14.99 beats a month's subscription. NOW carries the Sky Sports channels without a contract.
United States — Peacock Premium at about $12.99/month. Be careful: the cheaper Select tier at $8.99 explicitly excludes live sport.
South Africa — the DStv Stream Sports package at ZAR 399/month carries every Premier League match. Showmax used to undercut it at ZAR 99; that service shut down on 30 April 2026.
Australia — check 9Now first; Stan Sport is about AUD 20/month as an add-on to a Stan base plan, with no free trial.
Portugal or Brazil — try the free routes above before buying anything.

Why the rights are split like this

The Premier League sells its international rights in regional bundles and its domestic rights in packages, which is why the UK needs two subscriptions and most other countries need one. The 3pm Saturday blackout is a British artefact — it exists to protect attendance at lower-league grounds — and it is why the same Saturday fixture that is unavailable in Manchester is on television in Dublin, Toronto and Sydney.

Is the Premier League on Amazon Prime Video?

No. Amazon exited after the 2024-25 season and holds no Premier League package now. It shows zero matches from 2025-26 onwards, even though many guides still list it.

Where can I watch the Premier League completely free?

Nowhere that we could verify. The free options are partial: BBC highlights in the UK, selected matches on 9Now in Australia, one match per matchday in Portugal, and a weekly match on CazéTV in Brazil. All of them are geo-locked to their own country.

Which countries get the Premier League on DAZN?

Canada, Spain and Portugal. DAZN does not carry the Premier League in the UK, where its football rights are Serie A and the National League. This is the single most common confusion about DAZN, and it is why the service needs a country-by-country check.

Does the 3pm Saturday blackout still exist?

Yes. Saturday 3pm kick-offs are not broadcast live in the UK. That is a domestic rule, not a global one, which is why the same match is legally available in Ireland and many other markets.

What is the cheapest way to watch one Premier League match?

In the UK, a NOW day pass at £14.99 for 24 hours of the Sky Sports channels. It avoids the 24-month contract that a direct Sky Sports subscription requires.

Who shows the Premier League in the United States?

NBC and Peacock. Peacock Premium, at about $12.99/month, carries the exclusive matches. The cheaper Select tier excludes live sport entirely.
