ITV TO SHOW TEN LIVE FREE-TO-AIR LALIGA GAMES A SEASON

ITV will show live free-to-air LaLiga action after striking a deal with UK rights holders Premier Sports.

Premier show all LaLiga games live in the UK through its main channels and the LaLiga TV streaming service.

But under a three-year deal, ITV will show ten matches per season from Spanish football’s top-flight division.

ITV say their games will feature either Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid. The first match of the new agreement will see ITV 4 screen Real Sociedad v Barcelona on Sunday August 21. Coverage will start at 8.30pm ahead of the 9pm kick-off.

Matches will either be shown on the main ITV channel, ITV 4 and will also be available on the broadcaster’s streaming service ITV Hub.

GARY LINEKER IN SHOCK SIGNING FOR LALIGA TV

Gary Lineker will host top live LaLiga action after a surprise announcement that he will join the Spanish league’s TV channel.

LaLiga TV has confirmed Lineker has agreed a “multi-year deal” to present key fixtures as well as featuring on the VIVA LaLiga TV programme.

He’ll continue to host the BBC’s Match of the Day Premier League highlights and live FA Cup coverage. His contract with the corporation is not exclusive and was recently extended – see HERE.

Lineker will no longer be part of BT Sport’s Champions League coverage after announcing in the summer he was leaving the broadcaster despite a generous offer to stay – see HERE.

The former Barcelona striker said he was “thrilled” to be part of LaLiga TV and had watched the channel “every weekend for the last two seasons”.

LaLiga TV is available in the UK through Premier Sports and Amazon Prime Video Channels. It screens every LaLiga TV game live (although games which clash with the UK’s 3pm Saturday blackout restrictions are screened on delay). Some matches are shown free-to-air on Premier’s spin-off channel FreeSports.

This season’s LaLiga fixtures kick off on Friday August 13.

LaLiga TV channel launches on Sky and Virgin

1316605_screenshot20200107at14.59.24_906397

A dedicated channel showing the top Spanish action has launched as a stand-alone channel on the Sky and Virgin platforms – and the first two weeks of action is being shown for FREE.

LaLigaTV will screen every game from Spain’s top division live to UK audiences (apart from those which kick-off in the 3pm Saturday black-out period where no games are allowed to be shown from any football competition).

It will be shown free-to-air for the first two weeks meaning two rounds of LaLiga action will be available at no extra cost to all 8.5million Sky TV subscribers.

Matches in that period available for free include Real Betis v Real Sociedad, Barcelona v Granada, Real Valladolid v Real Madrid and Sevilla v Granada.

After the freeview period, LaLigaTV will be available at £5.99 a month as a stand-alone channel or £11.99 a month when bundled in the Premier Sports 1 & 2 channels which also show Serie A, Dutch and Scottish Cup football.

The new channel is part of the three-year deal Premier stuck to shown LaLiga games in the UK.

As well as live games, LaLiga carries daily studio chat and analysis shows including Viva LaLiga, LaLiga World, LaLiga LIVE and The LaLigaShow.

LaLiga TV is broadcasting now on Sky channel 435 and Virgin channel 554.

 

Premier Sports and FreeSports seal La Liga TV deal

Mzwm-ZYz

Premier Sports has sealed a deal to show live La Liga action for the next three seasons – with selected games being shown free-to-air on sister channel FreeSports.

It means every La Liga game will be shown on UK TV live, apart from those that clash with the 3pm Saturday blackout period which will be shown on delay.

In addition to games shown on Premier, LaLiga TV – a 24-hour dedicated channel to Spain’s top division – will also be available to Premier subscribers, initially on the online Premier Player and soon as part of a Premier bundle of channels on Sky. Virgin will also offer it at a later date.

LaLiga TV shows live games as well as magazine shows LaLiga World, VIVA LaLiga and The LaLiga Show.

The deal ends an uncertain time for LaLiga on UK TV after it refused to award the rights due to what the league described as unsatisfactory bids from broadcasters.

A short-term deal saw matches from the first three match rounds shown on live on ITV 4 free-to-air.

It’s not clear how many free-to-air matches will be shown by Premier, but over the next couple of weekends they are making two games available live on FreeSports.

FreeSports will show a weekly La Liga highlights show as well.

The first game of the new agreement is on Friday (September 13) with Mallorca v Athletic Club on FreeSports and Premier Sports 1.
