Three ways to watch Premier League football on TV this season for less
It is great to catch the action live but with tickets tough to get hold of, most of us will rely on small-screen coverage.
Watching all the games on TV can still be pricey as they are spread across subscription channels Sky Sports and TNT Sports.
So here's how to enjoy the beautiful game for less . . .
TEAM UP: You are looking at an extra £48 a month to add a full sports package to a broadband deal through EE. Try cutting costs by paying only for the games you really want to see, and watching with pals.
As the majority of Premier League games will be shown on Sky Sports, you could pay for a one-day membership of Now TV at £14.99 which shows the Sky games.
Then take it in turns to host at home once a week.
If there are four of you it cuts the cost of viewing a game to around £3.75 a time or £14.99 over four weeks.
Or, if you are an EE customer, you can add TNT Sports for £20 a month then view on multiple devices.
You could agree again to split costs with pals but make sure you decide ahead which and how many games you will watch together.
HEAD TO THE PUB: Many pubs put on the top games for punters. Keep costs down by avoiding booze and opting for a soft drink.
HIGHLIGHTS: You can catch highlights of Premier League games for free on BBC's Match Of The Day programmes on Saturdays and Sundays, and later via BBC iPlayer.
The Premier League YouTube channel also shows highlights you can watch for free.
There are also highlight videos that can be watched for free at skysports.com.

Alexis Mac Allister makes honest admission as Liverpool star confesses 'I had my bags packed'
Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has reflected on a tough period in his career and admitted that he almost left the Premier League before speaking with his family Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has revealed how close he came to leaving English football, a decision that could have completely altered his career trajectory. The 26-year-old has so far enjoyed a dream career–winning the Premier League with Liverpool and helping Argentina to Copa America and World Cup triumphs–but he initially struggled after arriving in England. Mac Allister signed for Brighton from Argentinos Juniors in January 2019 but was loaned back before spending time alongside his brother Kevin at Boca Juniors the following season. After impressing during these spells in his homeland, Brighton recalled Mac Allister in January 2020, debuting against Wolves in March 2020. However, that turned out to be the Seagulls' final game before football shut down due to the covid-19 pandemic. The culture shock of swapping Argentina for England and the effects of the ongoing pandemic left Mac Allister feeling alone. He admitted to packing his bags and being ready to leave Brighton, which could have prevented him from becoming a hero for Liverpool and Argentina. 'As footballers, we always say that you become a man very early. But in other ways, you're still a boy,' Mac Allister wrote for Players' Tribune, reflecting on his time at Brighton in 2020. 'I was calling my mom on FaceTime every day, asking how to turn on the oven and where to put the detergent. And being alone, without playing, you get depressed. 'Many don't know this, but by that Christmas, with no fans in the stadiums, I had my bags packed. Literally, they were packed. I had two offers to leave — one from Russia and another from Spain, and my mind was made up. 'My mom was back in Buenos Aires, and I called her one day crying my eyes out, telling her, 'I quit. I can't do this anymore. But moms…. They always know what to say, don't they?' Mac Allister clearly listened to his mother's advice and stayed put at Brighton. When the Premier League resumed, he featured in all except one of the Seagulls' games. After a spell in and out of the team, Mac Allister became a regular starter the following season, with his displays eventually earning him a recall to the Argentina squad months before the 2022 World Cup. Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp later came calling for the World Cup winner, with Mac Allister being part of a midfield overhaul that laid the foundations for Arne Slot 's title-winning side. Mac Allister, who also paid an emotional tribute to Diogo Jota, is acutely aware of how differently his career could have gone if he had ignored his mother in 2020. 'I have to give a big hug to my mother,' Mac Allister said. 'Without her, none of this would have happened. I would not be a Premier League champion. I certainly would not be a World Cup champion. Maybe you would not even know my name.' He added: 'Can you imagine if I had left for Spain? For Russia? I would be an answer in one of those pub quizzes they have in England. 'Next question: who was the Argentinian guy with the Irish name who played 15 games for Brighton? Ahhhh, damn. Who was that guy? Mac something… What happened to him?' But no, that was not my fate. My mom saved me.' Mac Allister made 35 appearances as Liverpool won the Premier League title by 10 points last term. As he prepares to help the Reds defend their crown, the midfielder admits to being proud of not giving up on his dream. 'In 2020, my name was nothing. I couldn't get a game for Brighton,' Mac Allister recalled. 'I was crying with my mom on FaceTime, begging to come home. Two years later, I was a World Cup Champion. Then a Copa América champion. Now I'm a Premier League champion. Even a Ballon D'Or nominee. 'That's football, no? It's so crazy. The only way that I can explain my story is that I never gave up. That's what I'd like to teach my daughter in a few years. Yes, Daddy fought against a lot of things, but he knew how to overcome them all. You just keep fighting. That's the great lesson.'

Diogo Jota's childhood sweetheart wife, three young kids and tragic final promise
Diogo Jota made a heartbreaking promise of 'forever' to his wife just days before the fatal car crash that claimed the life of the Liverpool football pro and his brother, leaving behind three young children Liverpool star Diogo Jota was newly married to his childhood sweetheart when tragedy struck in a horrific car crash earlier this summer. The talented footballer and his brother Andre tragically died in a car accident near the city of Zamora in Spain on July 3, and the football world has been in mourning ever since. Diogo married his Rute Cardoso, 28, in a lavish ceremony on June 22, just days before his death. Sweet snaps show the loved-up couple with their three young children, blissfully unaware of the tragedy that lay before them. Now, his wife and children will be present at Liverpool's Premier League opener this evening where the team will play against Bournemouth. It's thought the club will pay tribute to their late player, with them retiring the number 20 shirt in his memory. READ MORE: Liverpool vs Bournemouth prediction, odds and betting offer Childhood sweethearts Diogo Jota and Rute Cardoso first met in their teenage years in Porto, Portugal, having attended the same school. Friends and family watched as their relationship blossomed alongside Diogo's own rise through the footballing ranks. From local youth clubs to making his mark in the Premier League, Rute was always by his side, a constant support during the pressures of professional sport. Together, they built a family, welcoming three children over the years. Son Dinis was born in 2021, while Duarte was born in 2023. Their daughter arrived in November 2024. Those close to the family described Diogo as a devoted father who cherished every moment with his children, sometimes sharing snaps with his followers online. Dream wedding After years together, the couple finally tied the knot on June 22, 2025, in an intimate ceremony in Porto. The wedding was attended by friends, family, and teammates who gathered to witness the union. The couple shared glimpses of the special day on social media, with Diogo captioning a post, "A day we will never forget," and Rute responding, "My dream came true." The footballer replied, "But I'm the lucky one". The wedding day itself was a picture of happiness, from their first dance to moments of quiet intimacy shared between the couple. It seemed to mark the beginning of the next chapter in their lives, but sadly 11 days later news broke of Diogo's fatal crash. Stunning pictures shared via Instagram show the couple beaming from ear to ear in front of a church altar, with Rute looking breathtaking in an ivory dress and flowing veil. In one photo, they are accompanied by their three young children. Another snap shows the couple emerging from the church amid a flurry of confetti, embarking on what should have been the first exciting steps of a long and happy life together. Just 11 days after their wedding, Diogo and his brother André Silva were killed in a catastrophic car crash on Spain's A‑52 highway. Reports indicate that their Lamborghini suffered a tyre blowout, veered off the road, and caught fire, leaving no chance for escape. Heartbreakingly, Diogo's final social media post was the couple's wedding video that was posted less than 24 hours before the accident. Special vow to three children Diogo is survived by two sons and a daughter who was born in December 2024. Just a month before his daughter arrived, the footballer opened up about mental health and family life in a video on his club's YouTube channel. Sitting down with Lee Richardson, the club's performance psychologist, Diogo highlighted how football, being a team sport, can sometimes allow players to mask their feelings. "As a team sport, you can sometimes hide or benefit from what the team is doing or not. And in those individual sports, like boxing, Olympians, [they're by] themselves. So when they are not good, you can clearly see something is wrong," he shared. The doting father went on to discuss his children, explaining that even after being on the pitch all day, he had to be "on it" when he came home to his family. He shared: "When I go home after playing, I still have a family. I have two kids, three almost, and the dogs, and the stress, it doesn't stop. In a poignant vow to his family, he said: "You want to be the best father you can be". The star added: "[You] try to lead by example, give him good feedback, even though sometimes you want to get a bit more rest in the afternoon, and they are all happy because you're finally at home and they want to play. I had this yesterday after the game. I wanted to get a bit of rest. One of my kids wanted to play some football and you need to be on it." Wife's statement The brothers had been heading to the Spanish port of Santander so Jota could return to Liverpool for pre-season training. Their funeral took place in their hometown of Gondomar, near Porto. Rute made her first statement following his death on the one month anniversary of their wedding, posting three pictures from their big day, including a close up of the pair holding hands. She captioned the post: "1 month of our 'until death do us part'."

Broadhead fee reflects 'real Championship quality'
Manager Phil Parkinson says Wrexham had to break their own transfer record to get "real Championship quality" in signing Nathan forward Broadhead, 27, has joined from Ipswich Town on a four-year deal which could eventually be worth £ previous record transfer fee was believed to be in excess of £3m when they signed midfielder Lewis O'Brien from Nottingham Forest in July."The fee has been out there at £10m but I think we have to get to the Premier League and win the Champions League to get to that," Parkinson told BBC Sport Wales."But it's a price for a player of real Championship quality."The fee with Ipswich had been agreed a for a long time, obviously they wanted to sign a player so we had to be patient."But they've been fair and both parties are happy with the deal." Bangor-born Broadhead was in the final year of his contract with Ipswich, where he scored 23 goals in 83 season Broadhead, who started his professional career at Everton, scored two goals in 18 Premier League games for Kieran McKenna's side."He's just got that Championship pedigree, the ability to create something in tight situations, you need players to unlock the door and create key moments in games and Nathan's got that," Parkinson added."He's shown it at Ipswich at levels over the past few seasons and obviously the story of him coming home is a great one as well."He was really keen to come here and I'm really looking forward to working with him." Broadhead is Wrexham's ninth signing since they were promoted from League One last season – their third successive automatic Dragons have broken their transfer record on numerous occasions since Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took control of the club in acknowledged the backing of the club's owners in preparing a squad to compete in the Championship this season."I think it's key - there's a lot of spending power in the division," Parkinson said."I think from day one we've moved so quickly and we've always had to work hard as a club to fast track the quality level for the first team as we've always played catch-up."But we've come to this division very quickly and it's important that we bought in Championship standard players to help us on this journey and also assist the existing players who've done so well over the last few years."
