Premier League Broadcast Schedule: What Changes to Expect for 2026/27
Broadcasters are preparing coverage plans for the 2026/27 Premier League season, with rights holders confirming how fixtures will be distributed across their platforms in the coming months. Domestic and international audiences alike can expect an expanded slate of live matches compared to previous seasons, reflecting the growing global appetite for English top-flight football.
Streaming platforms have continued to play a larger role alongside traditional television coverage, giving supporters more flexibility in how and where they watch matches. Highlights packages, extended match analysis, and behind-the-scenes content remain popular additions to core live coverage.
Kickoff time changes, often driven by broadcast scheduling, will once again affect a number of fixtures throughout the season. Clubs and supporter groups have previously raised concerns about short-notice changes, and broadcasters have said they aim to confirm scheduling as early as possible once matches are selected for television.
With international broadcast deals continuing to grow in value, the Premier League's global reach shows no signs of slowing down heading into the new campaign.
