How to watch the Premier League
Love football? Here is a quick guide on how to watch the Premier League. (EPL)
USA
In the States, NBC enjoys the exclusive privilege of broadcasting the English Premier League matches in English. They showcase all 380 clashes, leveraging their primary channels, the NBC-owned USA Network, and their digital platform, Peacock.
The bulk of the Premier League action finds its home on Peacock. $5.99/month or $59.99/annually for the ‘Premium’ version, it’s a steal. Want an ad-free experience? Opt for the ‘Premium Plus’ at $11.99/month or $119.99/year. Dive right into the action by registering on the Peacock site.
However, if you’re eyeing NBC or USA Network sans cable bills, it gets slightly tricky. My recommendation? Opt for platforms like YouTube TV ($72.99/month), Sling TV ($45/month for Sling Blue), or Hulu+ Live TV ($69.99/month). They might be on the pricier side, but they’re packed with additional perks.
U.K. – Premier League Broadcasting
In contrast to the U.S., only 200 out of the 380 Premier League fixtures are televised live in the UK. Sky Sports holds the lion’s share, with TNT Sports (previously BT Sport) and Amazon Prime Video broadcasting selected fixtures.
Sky Sports
For Sky Sports enthusiasts, the options are varied. A TV package sets you back by £46/month, contingent upon a £26/month Entertainment plan for a year and a half. For tech aficionados considering Sky Glass, a combo deal of TV, Sky Sports, Sky Entertainment, and Netflix is available at £14/month for half a year, post which it’s £65/month. Both choices include Sky Go for seamless mobile and laptop streaming.
For those seeking cost-effective alternatives, Sky’s Now streaming beckons. A full-priced Now Sports membership offers all Sky Sports channels at £34.99/month. However, savvy deals frequently pop up. The Now Boost addition, priced at an extra £6/month, upgrades your viewing experience with 1080p clarity, ad removal, and three-device simultaneous streaming.
TNT Sports
Formerly known as BT Sport, TNT Sports retains its package structures. A two-year TV package, including Eurosport 1 & 2 and discovery+ Premium, is priced at £18/month. Streaming enthusiasts can add TNT Sports to discovery+ for £20/month (for BT Broadband users) or snag the monthly pass at £29.99. A Sky Sports-TNT Sports combo? That’ll be £43/month.
Amazon Prime Video
If you’re eyeing the Premier League matches on Prime Video, here’s the deal. Ensure you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber. Post the generous 30-day trial, it’s priced at £8.99 monthly or an annual £95. But here’s the clincher: It’s not just about football. You’re also privy to perks like speedy next-day deliveries, boundless photo storage, and a sprinkle of music and gaming treats.
Sign up for Prime here.
But hey, if you’re thinking, “I’m here only for the footie!”, there’s a solution. Go solo with just the Prime Video at £5.99 each month. To snag this, hit ‘See more plans’ on their sign-up portal.

Decoding International Broadcasting Rights
Firstly, if you’re not in the U.S. or U.K., a quick check on the Premier League’s official site will reveal the accredited broadcaster in your location. This ensures you’re tuning into the right source.
On a brief international stint but don’t want to miss out on the action? Use a VPN to access your native U.S. or U.K. subscription. For instance, we’ll demonstrate using NordVPN, although our best VPN chart is chock-full of worthy competitors.
Download VPN
Head over to your chosen VPN’s website (e.g., NordVPN), and kickstart the process with ‘Download App’. Note: Top-tier VPNs like NordVPN are versatile, catering to a plethora of devices.
Link to a U.S. or U.K. Server
Once you’ve got the app up and running, it’s sign-in time. Post this, latch onto a U.S. or U.K. server. Remember, the interface might slightly vary based on your chosen VPN, but the essence remains consistent.
Dive into the Streaming Platform
With your VPN connection active, revisit your regular streaming portal or app. Voila! Now, you’re set to devour Premier League content sans any pesky barriers.
