If you have any questions about the Championship TV schedule, let us know in the comments section below.
I’m a diehard Newcastle Supporter. I have been loving the NBCSN coverage of the EPL for the past few years. I remember the days of the ONLY EPL game we would get each week was the highlighted game at 6-630am on a Saturday. How much the US coverage of the EPL has changed, is incredible.
Now onto the real point of this comment…my current TV provider is Time Warner Cable & I am subscribed to a package that gives me BeIn Sports, FS1 & FS2. Will I be able to watch all Newcastle games next season? Does BeIn show all Championship games through TV & online? (like that NBCSN online pass does)
Let me know – thank you!
-CT
There’s good news and bad news. The bad news is that you won’t be able to watch all of the Newcastle games. Most of the Championship games aren’t shown on television, but approximately 3-4 are each weekend. The good news is that Newcastle will probably be featured more than most teams.
Your best bet is to bookmark this page and then keep on returning to it each week (as we get closer to the season start). This will be the most comprehensive listing of when and where you can watch Newcastle.
Some of the games will be on beIN SPORTS. But some of them will only be available on beIN SPORTS Connect, which is beIN’s streaming service. As a TWC customer, you should be able to access beIN SPORTS Connect at https://beinsportsconnect.tv/index.html If not, let me know and I can provide an alternative link.
Here’s more info on where Newcastle United supporters can watch their club this season in the Championship: http://worldsoccertalk.com/2016/07/25/watch-newcastle-united-matches-championship-us-tv-season/
Are any of the matches bring shone on any other us neteork
beIN SPORTS has exclusive rights and doesn’t allow any other network in the US to broadcast its games.
Buy a jailbroken Amazon Fire Stick online and it will give you access you tv all over the world.
Tim, it doesn’t matter. Most of the Championship games aren’t televised on TV.
Is there a highlights show? there used to be one.
Great question Simon. Will there be a Championship Review Show, like in the past?
Last season BeIn aired the Skybet highlights show, usually Mon & repeated. It was 30min & featured highlights of matches shown on Sky & goals from other matches. We would watch, but relied on our club site for more immediate & extensive highlights.
I am a Leeds fan and have been living with this for years. You get to see about 10-12 games per year. Sucks! We are in the 21st Century people. When is a Network going to allow customers to choose which matches they want to watch i.e. viewers choice? Not hard. Newcastle and Leeds have huge followings around the globe, however none of the networks accommodate this. Get into the future.
Real Madrid are the first
I’m wanting to watch Newcastle games next season in championship do we have a good site to watch them on? I do have streams anyone know if they will be on that one?
What are the possibilities of Birmingham city being televised at all during the season? They are not the same caliber as Newcastle and the Villa, but should be able to compete with them.
Birmingham City will be televised, for sure, but it may only be 1 or 2 games per month depending on the schedule.
Birmingham City have won the Football League Cup twice – they beat Aston Villa (3-1) in the Final 1962, they also beat Arsenal (2-1) at Wembley 2011. they beat Aston Villa (4-2) in the Q/Final. B’ham City are at moment 6 points ahead of Villa in the Championship, and played them off the Park 2 weeks ago, but drew (1-1) B’ham City scored a goal (not given) which was well over the line. (photographs proved this afterwards) Birmingham City represent the Second biggest City in the UK – and NO team represents London, by the “badge on their shirt”. Aston Villa represent “Aston”, which is only a “District” of Birmingham.
I will subscribe to bein sports if I can 1-2 Newcastle games per month of course I want them live
Paul Burnaby
We’ll find out in early August what their schedule is, but I’m sure there’ll be 1-2 live games or more per month. They already have the opening Friday night game on TV.
How about the famous “Old Gold” of Wolves? We we still them sprinkled around from time to time or is it favored more towards the relegated 3?
I agree. I am a Wolves follower.. Looks like a small sprinkling of Wolves, wish I could see more.
I want to watch aston villa. what us stations carry it?
beIN SPORTS and beIN SPORTS Connect. You can sign up for a free trial to fuboTV to access those channels: http://static.fubo.tv/lp/v2/getpro.html?mbsy=bfzvz
Here’s a guide on how to watch Aston Villa on US TV this season: http://worldsoccertalk.com/2016/07/24/watch-aston-villa-matches-championship-us-tv-season/
So is static . Funk best place to get the championship games?? Will sign up if so
I live in the USA and am a Newcastle supporter and really wanna watch or listen to as many matches as possible. I am an Xfinity subscriber. Do I have any options for catching matches?
If you subscribe to beIN SPORTS on Comcast, you can catch some of the games. If you get fuboTV via http://bit.ly/1QA485F, you can watch more games on beIN SPORTS Connect and beIN SPORTS.
Are there any apps where I can listen to radio broadcasts of the games?
Your best bet is to try the NUFC app at http://www.nufc.co.uk/page/Mobile/App
When do you think we’ll see the rest of beIN’s schedule released?
We should know the schedule in early August, and we’ll update the page accordingly as soon as we get the details.
Does ESPN 3 carry the championship season besides several pre season friendlies?
No, beIN SPORTS has the exclusive rights to the Championship in the USA.
Looks like I will have a good number of Sheffield Wednesday games to watch early on. Up the Owls!
Also, those games the weekend of Sept. 3 are League One matches.
The first 3pm/10am Saturday game will be Nottingham Forest vs. Burton Albion.
I’m hoping that future NUFC games get this hallowed 10am BeIN slot. It’s our only hope.
Thanks Dan!
When will we we have confirmation of the time and date of the Fulham v Sheffield.Wed. M currently scheduled for 1500 19 Nov.-Sat. Based on tv selection change? . Only in London for that day and desperately want grandson to see a match at CC.
Thanks,
GNL
Match kickoff dates and times are always subject to change, but the Football League will be making an announcement around the opening weekend of the Championship season when the next round of games will be moved for TV. Not sure if they’ll go as far out as November 19, but best bet is to check with the club website.
The Championship only produces 2 or 3 telecasts per week for overseas broadcast, so if you are a fan of a particular club, the best way to get coverage of all your team’s games is to sign up for audio streaming – it’s about $6 per month at current exchange rates. Fulham had free live audio last season
Go90 is an app by Verizon that seems to have BeIN sports for free…. You don’t even have to register. Slightly confused as to what they’re getting out of this.
http://adsales.beinsports.tv/press/bein-sports-premier-international-sports-content-now-available-on-go90/
I believe it has Chromecast/Apple TV streaming capabilities too.
I just checked this out and it looks legit. There is streaming for both Bein Sports and Bein Espanol. Unfortunately, it does not look like you can view programs on demand. You have to stream whatever is on Bein live. Replays of games are available but you have to catch them when they show on the Bein stations. Anyone else use Go90 for Bein Sports?
Hi i want to ask you something about fl championship. I am living in Turkey how to i watch efl matches online. I can pay for this but there are some regional problems. How can ı fix this problem?
You can try using a VPN (more info at http://worldsoccertalk.com/vpn-soccer/) and then subscribe to fuboTV to watch select Championship games.
thanks mr harris
This says the Newcastle game against Brighton will be available on FuboTV through beinsports connect, but it’s not showing up on my Fubo schedule. Does Fubo have the bein sports connect or is it just bein spanish and english versions?
Hi Alex, great question. fuboTV’s website doesn’t list the games that are available via beIN SPORTS Connect via fuboTV. Our schedule is the most complete. To watch beIN SPORTS Connect via fuboTV, don’t forget to follow the steps mentioned in our video at https://youtu.be/tSm0zwYxybY
Thanks!
Hey Chris, are you sure your schedule is correct? I’m subscribed to Beinsports connect, but it doesn’t look like the Newcastle and Brighton game is being shown. Trying to watch it now and it’s not on any of the 10 streaming channels.
They must have made a last minute programming change. According to their TV schedule, they’re showing a Championship game from 1.55pm to 2.55pm ET on beIN SPORTS, the main channel. Maybe they’re planning on showing the second half of the game at that time on delay or extended highlights of the whole match?
Their schedule originally said they were showing the game on beIN SPORTS Connect, but it’s not there.
It’s showing now on the fourth channel. But it has no audio…sigh. I’m about ready to cancel my subscription.
Sorry. That’s completely out of my control. Someone must have been asleep at the switch at beIN SPORTS.
To be clear, this is not the only factor that is questioning my subscription. The sub-par video quality and occasional buffering doesn’t help. And i’m not sure I want to pay this much when I only want to watch Newcastle matches.
Which service are you watching it via? fuboTV?
I’m using beinsportsconnnect today. The one other Newcastle game I was able to watch was the first of the season (Fulham) via fubo.tv. That stalled plenty of times. I rarely had that kind of issue withe the NBC Sports service last season.
There could be a few factors that are contributing to the issues. Your best bet would be to contact fuboTV support via [email protected]. They should be able to problem solve the issue. Sometimes it could be on beIN SPORTS Connect’s end. Hope that helps.
Hi, I was wondering how you get notification when Bein announce their 10am (or other fixtures that aren’t announced well ahead of schedule) fixture for the gameweek? As I am in charge of organising meets for a fan group, I need to know ASAP when our fixtures get announced for TV. Does Bein post this information somewhere in particular? I only ask as I have noticed on this page sometimes this info is available more than a week in advance – but the bein tv guide only stretches forward 6 days.
Hi Tom, it’s a combination of getting TV schedules directly from beIN SPORTS a couple of weeks ahead of schedule as well as knowing what games are being televised in the UK (hence most of them will be on US TV).
Thanks Christopher. I’m okay for the games that are shown in the UK as SKY have a rule to announce all fixtures 5 weeks in advance. It’s those matches that Bein pickup that aren’t televised in the UK that I’d like to get the earliest possible notification for. Do you know how I can get the TV schedule directly form bein a couple of weeks in advance?
Your best bet is to bookmark this page and revisit every few days. As soon as we get the listings from our sources, we update this page with the latest details.
Cheers, anyway I can get it directly form the source like you do?
I don’t think so, sorry. But check back often and we’ll have the latest updates here. If you have any specific questions, let us know in the comments section and we’ll do our best to get back to you.

Ed, If you could please provide a link for your ‘connect’ info. I only get a very generic listing-suspect I’m visiting an outdated page….thx
I receive beIN programming info directly from beIN. There is no link…
Okay thanks Ed, thought I was missing something, certainly do appreciate your postings.
Hi I live in the Philippines and want to watch the scheduled Leeds games…is this possible?
You’ll need a VPN. More info at http://www.worldsoccertalk.com/vpn-soccer/
Very few pubs in US have streaming and the ability to show Bein Sports connect. I listen to Metro radio via NUFC Toon Army news on Spreaker and view the game live on periscope; Toon army America usually provide the link for live stream.
Tried to subscribe to Fubo TV but it asks for a zip code (I live in the UK) – how can you get around this?
Thanks
You can try signing up for a VPN to access it as a US user: http://worldsoccertalk.com/vpn-soccer/
Hi
I am a subscriber to BeIn Sports on Cablevision (Optimum).Am I entitled to BeIn Sports Connect at no additional charge? If so, how do I access it without paying the Fubo TV monthly charge? Thanks.
Randy Volkell
The list of cable/satellite networks that allow you to access beIN SPORTS Connect (as of today) is AT&T U-verse, Atlantic Broadband, Bright House, COX, DirecTV, DISH, Frontier, Hotwire, Liberty, Mediacom, Optimum, RCN, Time Warner, Verizon and enTouch.
So you should be able to use your Optimum login credentials to access http://beinsportsconnect.tv Just be sure not to use Google Chrome. If it doesn’t work the first time you try logging in, refresh the browser and try again. It usually only works on the second try.
Hi Christopher,
What’s the best way to watch la liga and uefa championship matches and highlights in English, as well as dvr them?
Mardy, your best bet would be DirecTV (TV) or PlayStation Vue (streaming). Enjoy!
BRENTFORD are the top LONDON Championship team (last season and this) and they get 2 games before Xmas. Do they get a share of the money that is paid to the teams that are televised. If not, how are the teams picked???
S Duggan, Brentford may have the best London-based footballing side in the Championship last season, but the TV fixtures are determined by the TV companies and the EFL. Unfortunately because Brentford have fewer fans than some of the other big clubs in the division, that means that Brentford are shown less often than the likes of Villa, Newcastle, Leeds, Wolves, etc.
All of the teams in the division get a split of the TV revenue, but the more times the team is on TV, the more money they generate.
Brentford are the top London club this season, what drugs are you on? COYW!
Paracetemol to clear the headaches of people like you
Whilst I’m thankful to BeIn Sports that I can actually now watch Leeds more readily, the standard of their coverage needs major improvements. Fans want to see pre-match lead up, punditry, knowledgeable commentary and a little post-match reaction with Manager interviews. Also, the weekly highlights show should be a little longer and follow a similar format to the BBC’s Match of The Day….a winning format for over 30years! Viewers don’t want to see the scores and league table BEFORE the featured games as it spoils the tension of watching if we’ve managed to avoid the result! The same goes for the back to front and amateur format of the La Liga Highlights Show. Thanks BeIn but please have a think about the format of these shows.
Chris,
Do you know what the ratings are for Moto America GP? beIN has aired that instead of sort of big Serie A match last weekend and instead of the championship playoff this Saturday.
I don’t. All I know is that last summer, beIN SPORTS got 71,000 viewers for one MotoGP event in July. But Moto America GP numbers are usually smaller than that. Given what Serie A TV viewership has been, it’s quite possible that Moto America GP may get more viewers than Serie A.
Thanks that’s what I figured, shame that they are going away from being all soccer but it makes sense if the ratings aren’t good.
Thanks, it’s a shame beIN is moving away from being all soccer but it makes sense if the ratings aren’t cutting it.
Hi Christopher,
The Championship Final is always televised, but will there be any US coverage of the 2 leg semi-finals starting on the 13th?
Will we see the League 1 Final on the 20th?
Or the League 2 Semis and Final?
Cheers,
cmasia
The Championship TV schedule was updated earlier today to reflect the playoff games. Both Championship semifinals will be on beIN SPORTS Connect.
There are no plans to show the League Two semi-finals. No word on the final yet.
I’ll update the Championship TV schedule on Thursday night and will at that time know if the League One final will be on beIN SPORTS or beIN SPORTS Connect.
Are there any plans to increase the coverage of EFL Championship games next season? I have enjoyed the coverage of all Sunderlands games this season and know the number I will be able to see will be dramatically reduced.
Yes. Here’s a teaser – http://worldsoccertalk.com/2017/05/03/efl-stream-football-league-games-via-subscription-service-fans-us-abroad/ More information is to come.
Hi Christopher. Which channels will I be able to watch the Chanpionship final on please? Huddersfield v Reading?
It’ll be on beIN SPORTS on Memorial Day. It should be listed above.
“Reading vs. Huddersfield Town (Championship playoff final), 10am, beIN SPORTS, Sling World Sports and fubo Premier (free 7-day trial)” … I will be hoping to watch this on my iPad in Italy. In your view, is it best to try to subscribe to beIn or Fubo or indeed Sling World Sports ahead of the match? Many thanks for your help.
The fubo and Sling streaming services are only available to residents in the US. Sorry Liam.
Hi Chris,
Is there a repeat broadcast of the entire final championship game of Champions League?.
Tom, I checked the TV guide for the next few days and couldn’t find a rerun of the Championship final. If you mean the Champions League final, a rerun of the Juventus-Real Madrid game will be on FS2 at 5pm ET on Tuesday, June 6.
I am.a long time fan and ex player in UK soccer but only subscribe to DRECTV. Been very happy with what they have to offer in UK terms of U.K live games coverage.
Is it possible to obtain live games of Champioship games on DIRECTV this coming season? Do not do streaming, and since retiree, trying to keep costs down.
We should find out in the next few weeks who has the TV rights to the Championship for the 2017/18 season. Last season, it was beIN SPORTS. This coming season, we’ll have to wait and see.
As soon as I know, I’ll update the website.
Still no update on BEIN and Championship games? (Boro fan feeling the pain of relegation in the US)
No update yet from beIN SPORTS or the Championship. In the meantime, Boro hasn’t agreed to sign up with iFollow, which would be the best way to watch all of the Boro games. Hopefully Boro will sign up for the service soon so viewers outside the UK and Ireland can watch all of the games. More info about iFollow can be found at https://worldsoccertalk.com/2017/05/09/efl-ifollow-faq-need-know-football-leagues-new-streaming-service/
Any new news on the American TV rights for the Championship?
No news yet. We’ve reached out to the Football League for more details and will report back when we hear from them.
Thank you for your work to keep us informed. ESPN3 schedule now shows matches on 5 August: FFC v Norwich and Villa v Hull. Any insight? Thrilled if it’s indeed ESPN as that beinconnect never seems to work consistently for us.
http://www.espn.com/watch/schedule/?categoryId=5&startDate=20170805&type=upcoming
You must be in the UK or abroad. In the US, the games mentioned are on beIN SPORTS.
ESPN updated that link. I’m English but in America: earlier today the USA Fulham sites posted the ESPN3 schedule & said beIN had delayed cover. Obviously that’s since been amended. I knew you’d have the correct info, ta.
In the article it says that Sunderland will not be participating in the streaming. But FuboTV is showing a Sunderland game on Friday. Is FuboTV the best bet for catching Sunderland?
Sunderland is not participating in the iFollow streaming service from the EFL (English Football League), but anytime their games are televised, beIN SPORTS will show the match either on TV or online (or both).
With Sunderland not participating in iFollow and not launching their own streaming service, your best bet to watch as many Sunderland matches as possible is with fuboTV. The Black Cats won’t be featured every week but they should be shown more often than a lot of other Championship clubs.
Thanks. The FuboTV thing is a monthly subscription. I don’t see anywhere how much it costs, but I’m guessing about $30 a month(?) If Sunderland are not shown once or twice a month, then their value goes down. I wonder if I can buy on a match by match basis. E.g. when Sunderland win, I’d like to see it. Hopefully this season more than last season!
You’ll need fubo Premier, which includes beIN SPORTS Connect. fubo Premier is $34.99 per month, but they offer a 7-day free trial so you can see whether it’s a good fit for you.
Unfortunately a match-by-match subscription option isn’t available.
Hello, I live in Adelaide, South Australia, and am an Aston Villa supporter. I have Foxtel Sports and have been able to watch some Championship games on Beinsports. However I cannot see any games coming up on the planner. Could you please tell me whether Foxtel Beinsports are going to be showing the Championship League games particularly the Villa. Is there any other way to be able to watch them?
Cheers Maurice Mills
According to the EFL, the league is still in advanced negotiations so a decision hasn’t been made yet who will have the rights to the EFL games in Australia.
I would say that you could watch the games via iFollow, but Aston Villa has unfortunately elected not to offer iFollow to its supporters around the world (outside of the UK and Ireland).
How long is the ESPN deal for??
It hasn’t been disclosed. It could be for as little as one season. BAMTech owns the rights but they sublicensed them to ESPN.
Leeds United have started offering their games on a pay per game basis to international fans via their Match Centre: https://www.leedsunited.com/matchcast
Is the Aston Villa official website down? I cannot get through to pay for live streaming , it just comes up as an error. Was hoping to watch the Reading v Aston Villa game.
Cheers Maurice Mills
It’s actually the AVTV that seems to be down,, can’t go through to buy a game.
Villa should have agreed to have their games streamed through EFL’s iFollow instead of going it alone.
Are they not broadcasting midweek games? Feel like there isn’t a whole lot of production needed – they are just taking the international feed, right?
None of the games today were televised, so there were no matches made available to ESPN to broadcast.
That makes sense then
Any further news Christopher re EFL coverage in Australia? There’s a lot of discontent down under.
Sorry Stuart, I haven’t heard anything. But I don’t cover the Australia industry, only US.
No worries, thanks Christopher.
I logged in today to watch the Burton Albion v Sheffield Wednesday game [I’m an Owls fan] and was disappointed to only get the commentary. When I checked your schedule I see that the game was on ESPN3. That station is not available here in western Canada so why no live streaming?
Try the DAZN app. It’s not all that expensive ($20 per month, you can try it for a month for,free) and you get 2-3 Championship games per week. It has a catch up feature so you could rewatch the Owls game.
Would EfL games and cup be on any channel besides espn3 maybe espn ,espn2 or espn deportes ……
It’s possible that some of the games may be on ESPN2 but the vast majority will be on ESPN3.
ESPN3 seems to have dropped the EFL games. Any idea where they have gone now?
The EFL games are still on ESPN3 (see schedule below). ESPN3 hasn’t dropped them.
Its Friday april 6th 2018 & espn3 has no championship game listed on their schedule.Im getting nothing on sling orange or blue. Has the Chempionship been dropped by espn 3??
From April 12 onwards, the Championship games will be on ESPN+ — ESPN’s new paid subscription service ($5/month).
Wait, so even though I’ve already paid for cable to watch the EFL on ESPN – I can’t now watch it without paying a further $5 / month – in the middle of a season? Right before the playoffs !?!?!? How can they do that?
To add to the confusion, both TV Guide and Sling list a Championship match for April 21st on BeIN.
Unbelievable,
not one tv channel is showing the EFL playoff final from Wembly
Billed as the most expensive Soccer match in the world, but we
can’t watch it !!!
I contacted ESPN + to see if they will show the Championship Weekly Highlight show and League Cup show . Didn’t seem to know what I was talking about .
Anything on the Highlight show yet with ESPN + . Nothing in the schedule to suggest they will air it
its weird that ESPN+ is showing weekly review shows of Serie A and MLS, the other two leagues they are covering, but there are no such show for the Championship!
Does the Championship produce such a show? Haven’t seen Serie A’s on ESPN+ yet, but assuming it’s the same that used to be shown on beIN. Serie A Show and Total Italian Football produced by the league itself.
Hi, OK total noob to trying to watch Championship games in the US. I am a lifelong Birmingham City fan, so aside form going to 1 game a year in person when i get back to the UK I don’t get to see any games. Is there really a way to watch these games on the TV here in the states?
Good question. You can get an annual or monthly international pass through Blues TV where you’ll be able to watch almost every game via streaming, which you can then stream on your TV through either Chromecast or hooking a HDMI cable from your computer to your TV set.
More info is at https://birminghamfcpayments.streamamg.com/account/register/step1
When Birmingham City are on ESPN+, those games will not be available on Blues TV, so ideally you would have a subscription to ESPN+ too ($5/month).
I love watching the Champioship. It’s always seems to me to be the heart of English Football along with the FA Cup. Also I have more of sense of the old days of soccer broadcasting when those of us who started following EPL Talk would Search for EPL matches to watch. Miss those old days of chatting with the Gaffer and Kartik and BC Wildcat before dark on a Saturday
