Watch live football on TV for less

Now TV | £25* a month | Cancel anytime

Now TV allows you to sign up for a monthly membership, providing access to a range of Sky TV channels. If you’re focused on watching football, then you’ll want to check out the Sports Membership which allows you to stream all 11 Sky Sports channels.

You can watch on your TV, mobile, laptop ‒ any device that you can connect to the internet, essentially.

There’s a one-day membership, if there’s just one particular game that you want to see, which will set you back £11.99. 

*£2 5a month for 12 months, then monthly membership will cost £33.99. You can cancel at any time too ‒ you aren’t committed to a lengthy contract.  Offer ends 28/08/2022

BT Sport Monthly Pass | £25 per month | Rolling contract

As the name suggests, it runs for a month and gives you access to all of BT’s sport channels. As with Now TV, it’s run through an app, meaning you can watch on the move or cast it onto your main TV.

The Monthly Pass costs £25 and renews automatically, so make sure you cancel it in good time if you no longer need it.

Sky | £44 per month | £20 upfront fee | 18 month contract

Sky has rights to the most premier league matches and if you are a already Sky customer, then you can take up the Sky Sports package, which currently costs £18 a month. You have to sign up for a minimum 18-month contract, however, and there is the potential for prices to increase over that period.

Sky customers can also add BT Sport to their overall package, at a cost of £28 a month, again with a minimum 18-month contract.

It’s important to bear in mind that these costs are on top of the regular costs of being a Sky customer. The basic ‘Sky Signature’ pack for example costs £26 a month, while there’s a £20 one-off setup fee to pay as well.

BT Sport | £44.99 per month | £|39.99 upfront fee | £24 month contract

If you want to go straight to BT Sport instead, then its basic BT Sport membership costs £16 a month. You have to commit to a 24-month contract, however, while there’s a £39.99 upfront fee to pay too.

You also have the option of the Big Sport package, which includes all of the Sky Sports channels. It will set you back £41 a month, alongside a £39.99 upfront fee, while there’s once again a minimum 24-month contract.

As with Sky, these costs are on top of the regular costs of being a BT customer.

Amazon Prime Video | £7.99 per month | Cancel anytime

Amazon has bought the rights to two rounds of fixtures for the 2022/23 season. It means that all of the games in each round ‒ a total of 20 fixtures ‒ are broadcast live on Amazon’s streaming service. 

It means that while you won’t be able to watch all 20 games, you will at least be able to pick a game that matters to you.

The two rounds covered by Amazon Prime Video this year will be the midweek October match week (taking place on the 18th, 19th and 20th) and the Boxing Day game week.

Prime Video is included for all members of Amazon Prime, and costs £7.99 per month, though you will save by going for annual membership at £79 per year. It’s worth looking at the other features included within the Prime membership to work out whether you’re likely to get value for money from an annual membership, or if it works out cheaper to simply snap up a monthly membership should you be determined to watch those weeks’ games.
