If you’re looking for the Scottish Premiership TV schedule for fans in the United States, you’ve come to the right place.
During the 2019/20 Scottish Premiership season, the rights in the United States were held by B/R Live, but they expired at the end of that season after B/R Live decided not to renew them.
For the 2020/21 season, ESPN+ will carry at least one Scottish Premiership match per week, beginning October 17, and will also have coverage of select matches from the Scottish Championship, Betfred Cup (Scottish League Cup) and Tunnock’s Caramel Wafer Cup (Scottish Challenge Cup). The U.S. media rights include both English and Spanish to the Scottish Premiership, the top professional soccer league in Scotland.
We Recommend:
US Only.
The Scottish Premiership, previously known for sponsorship reasons as the Ladbrokes Premiership, is the top division of the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL), the league competition for men’s professional football clubs in Scotland.

Hi what channel in Philippines is showing the Celtic game on Saturday.
Niall, your best bet in the Philippines will be to watch the game live via Celtic TV online at http://www.celticfc.tv/
Rangers TV will allow you to watch the match for around 440 pesos, but Celtic TV will charge around 800 pesos. If you can deal with the pro-Rangers commentary, Rangers TV is a much cheaper option.
Do you know if fox sports in Brazil will be showing the game?
Old firm clash April 23rd….USA tv coverage
We believe it’ll be on FOX Soccer 2GO. The TV details haven’t been announced yet, but as soon as we find out, we’ll update the TV schedule.
Do you know yet if it’s on tv in USA, and what channel (I have Dish network) Thanks!
Today’s Old Firm is on GolTV at 9:30am ET. However, GolTV is not on DISH. But you can watch it with a free trial to fuboTV at https://www.fubo.tv/lp/wst/
I subscribe to Fox Soccer Match Pass (Previously Fox Soccer 2Go), and I emailed them to ask if they would show Scottish Premiership matches in the 17/18 season. They said they would not. Do you know who will show them in the USA?
Another vote for Scottish Premiership in the U.S. for 2017/18.
Is there any news on the rights for the SPFL for US?
Any news on SPFL in the US?
No word from the Scottish Premiership on US TV rights. It looks like FOX has passed on the opportunity to show the league, but anything can change.
Any more news on the USA tv rights to the spfl ? Only 2 days to get it sorted now 🙁
Unless there’s a last minute TV deal done, all of the games will only be available directly from each club’s streaming platforms (if they have one).
Any chance one of the other networks pick it up. My team doesn’t have its own streaming service.
Gaffer:
Any chance to see the Old Firm this weekend on FSP? or anywhere else?
It’s not scheduled to air on TV. You can watch it via CelticTV or RangersTV through their respective websites though.
Hi there,
Could you please tell me of any channels that are showing this weekends match,(23rd September ko 12 midday.GMT)between rangers and Celtic.eg Fox,TSN etc etc.
Your help with this is greatly appreciated.
Kind regards Michael
Hi Michael, in the United States, the game isn’t being shown on television. The only place you can watch it is on CelticTV or RangersTV (see links above).
Thanks Christopher,I appreciate the reply and the time it took you.
Although I find it strange there’s no channels showing it,I could be wrong,but I think this is very marketable game,that means money and these days I would’ve thought there would be coverage.
Appreciated,grazie molto?C’mon The Bhoys HH
Will the Scottish Premier League on Fox Soccer Plus return for the 2018-2019 season?
It’s too early to tell at this stage. We should know more next summer.
HI, I’m from Portland, Oregon–and would really Love to view Scottish Premiere League Soccer; any possibility channel(s) here will broadcast
the games left this year, or perhaps in 2018? Thanks a Million:),
Warm Regards,
Robert the Wallace
Hi Robert, the only way to watch the games is by signing up to stream games directly from the clubs. There’s no news on the TV front. Maybe next season.
SPFL is still on Canadian TV via SportsNet..

Hi guys,
I’m on holiday in Washington DC and keen to watch the Scottish League Cup final between Celtic and Motherwell on Sunday 26th November. I checked the Fox Soccer pass schedule and it’s not on there, any other ideas? I’ve emailed Celtic tv and am awaiting a reply. I have a BT Sport app but it won’t play outside the US.
Jim
No news has been announced yet regarding who (if anyone) will broadcast the Scottish League Cup final on US TV. It could be GolTV or FOX Sports, but your best bet is to bookmark this page and we’ll update the TV schedule as soon as we find out the details.
One option is to consider a VPN so you can log into your BT Sport app from the US. More info about that can be found at http://www.worldsoccertalk.com/vpn-soccer
So B/R live have the rights supposedly? Unclear how to watch though. You have any guidance Chris?
Right now, B/R Live will be streaming one game from the opening weekend from August 4-5 (Aberdeen-Rangers). More games could be added soon.
Will the Scottish League Cup really be on GolTV? According to this page (https://support.live.bleacherreport.com/Answer/Detail/94?_branch_match_id=535820962675600315), B/R Live also has the rights to it and will show 10 matches this season (there are only 15 left).
We’ll have to wait and see as we get closer to the August 18 date. Currently, GolTV is scheduled to televise one or more of the games. We’ll see if they’re live or on tape delay.
As of right now, B/R Live doesn’t have any Scottish League Cup games listed that will be streamed, but I’m sure that’ll change as we get closer to the date.
FYI it’s $2.99 a game. This adds up.
Just want to add to the chorus of “B/R Live and Turner in general is horrible”: I’m trying to watch the replay of Rangers/Hamilton and of course it will not load (yes, I did all the technical stuff). I think it is the fourth time I have tried to watch something on B/R Live and was unable to do so either for technical reasons or because they provided the final score. At this stage, I;m convinced that Turner wants this to fail, for so reason or another. No one is this incompetent.
Update: To cancel a B/R live subscription, you can’t just do it on their website. You have to contact an agent. They have a rotten business model.
They are a absolute horror show . Even the coverage on TNT is dismill . U would think Stu Holden who covered the World Cup final for Fox and Tim Howard who worked on NBCSN and ESPN who could bring some life to it . But cannot seem to do that
Do you know who/if anybody, will be showing the SPFL 2019-2020 in Canada?
do we know if br live is still going to be showing the new season?
I did not see Scottish Premeriship listed in BR Live’s listing of Soccer competitions for their recently-introduced 9.99 per month pass (annual soccer pass is discontinued). They listed these competitions:
-UEFA Champions League
-UEFA Europa League
-UEFA Youth League
-BVB World (Borussia Dortmund)
-Liverpool FC 2019 Friendlies
-LFCTV
-Arsenal TV
-Spurs TV
I thought Turner had lost the UEFA competitions but it’s possible they only opted out of the broadcast rights and kept the streaming rights.
MUTV
thanks for checking things out pat! wonder what is up! Turner really has been a disaster ! 1 month b4 champs league and they are advertising things they probably don’t have and now maybe no spl
Any idea when ESPN+ will begin their SPL coverage? I thought it would start this weekend.
Hoping it’s going to be next weekend.
Lol.
Any update on when the SPFL games may show up on ESPN+
They’re still hammering out the final details of the agreement, so it won’t be this weekend. It’s unfortunately a very complex deal that’s taking longer than expected.
not related buy whey are europa qualifiers on bleacher report. Thought it was all going to cbs all access?
CBS has rights from Group Stage onwards. Rights to qualifying games are sold on an individual basis by clubs.
In previous years, everyone from GolTV, beIN SPORTS, ESPN3 and FOX have shown qualifying matches. Unfortunately, the games are not available as one package to buy.
ok so group stage is on CBS all access? damn Arsenal
Another week and still no match’s, im beginning to think it’s just not happening
It’s happening just not as quickly as we would like.
Any news on the SPL schedule on ESPN?
A friend of mine reached out to ESPN+ support and asked about the Scottish premiership and responded saying that it hasn’t been finalized, but they expect it to be on ESPN at the start of the 2021/2022 season. I hope they get it for this season.
A support rep wouldn’t’ know.
So what I’m hearing is we won’t even have it for this season , that’s crap
I literally signed up for ESPN+ just because of SPFL
Might as well cancel next month.
Honestly beginning to think there never was a deal for this season at all and it was always going to start next year
ESPN+ has the rights to the Scottish Cup and it will resume on Halloween with the Edinburgh Derdy followed on Sunday November 1st with Aberdeen vs Celtic
The Old Firm is on October 17th, right after the next International Break. If it isn’t on ESPN+, then I don’t see the SPL being on TV in the US in 2020.
Is the league cup that’s being played this week on ESPN+?
Any updates on the SPFL or the League Cup on ESPN+?
Bart: “I literally signed up for ESPN+ just because of SPFL. Might as well cancel next month.” Sorry to hear that but totally understandable. I’m missing the Scottish league too, but that said, there’s a lot of good stuff on the Plus service for a very fair price so I’m staying, whereas to watch the EPL you get royally fleeced just to get jacked around. Shout out to Worldsoccertalk too, they are kinda caught in the middle of all the weirdness but that’s what they signed up for creating this useful & informative site, hope it’s worth their while and that Chris and crew can put food on the table. The pod does tend to paint the dissatisfaction with NBCSpts/Peabrain as first worlder problems when there are numerous legitimate reasons for people being upset but that’s a topic for other threads.
Any news on the possibility of the October 17th old firm game being shown on US television?
Yes, it’s confirmed that it’s on tomorrow 7.30 eastern time on Espn+
Chris,
Are this weekend’s Scottish Cup semi finals on ESPN+ ?
ESPN+ has had the Scottish Cup in the past.
When I looked on their schedule this evening I did not see either game in the upcoming schedule.
They have the rights to the games, but they haven’t announced yet whether they’ll be showing them. Let me check with my contact at ESPN+ to see if he can confirm.
ESPN+ has confirmed to me that they will be broadcasting the two semi-finals live.
Great!! And I just checked the ESPN+ schedule and both games are now out there. Thanks for looking into this.
How do I watch Glasgow rangers matches in the USA?? I no I can get cbs for the UEFA cup but not for the Scottish premiership??
Scottish Premiership matches are available on ESPN+. They usually broadcast Rangers and Celtic games each weekend.

Note that most of this weekend’s Scottish League Cup games are on ESPN+
