The Sky NOW service offers incredible channels to its users and has three main packages.
Viewers can either subscribe to the Entertainment, Cinema or Sports packages.
The Sports package is a perennial favourite, since it gives fans access to the Premier League, Formula 1, rugby, golf, NFL and cricket.
Normally costing £34.99 per month, the subscription price has been slashed to £28.
The discount on Sky's NOW streaming service does come with an important caveat though.
You'll have to sign up to a 12-month contract for the service.
That means that, once you've signed up to the deal, you are locked in for the whole year.
Even if you cancel the contract before the end of the year, you will still be charged.
Sky is still offering its regular £34.99 membership on a monthly rate.
However, the new deal allows you to save £6.99 per month - which is a huge saving of £83.88 per year.
Alternatively, the £14.99 day membership lets you watch Sky Sports for 24 hours at a time.
The news comes as football teams and their fans gear up for one of the most exciting Premier Leagues yet.
However, a supercomputer thinks it might have already guessed the ending of the tournament.
The incredible piece of tech simulated the campaign 10,000 times and it's bad news for several fan favourite teams.
According to the supercomputer, Man City will come in third place with 70 points, following Arsenal who will come in second with 72 points.
All the way down at 14th place, Tottenham are expected to get 49 points.
Meanwhile, one club is expected to sweep to first place - clinching the title by just one point.
The computer says that the winning club this year is going to be Liverpool.
The numbers were crunched by statisticians at Opta, a leading data company.

Man Utd transfer news: Benjamin Sesko deal cancels protest as Antony ultimatum issued
A Manchester United protest has been called off in light of the club landing the signing of Benjamin Sesko as Antony's future remains front and centre with the transfer deadline closing in Manchester United's frontline has been transformed by an impressive summer of recruitment with three new faces setting them back more than £200million. The capture of Benjamin Sesko, presented to Old Trafford on Saturday, means Ruben Amorim has addressed the lack of goals in his team last season. With the season fast approaching it is unlikely that any new faces will arrive before they play Arsenal on Sunday. However Amorim has made it clear he would like a new midfielder with Brighton's Carlos Baleba continuing to be linked with a move to Manchester. He's excelled at the Amex but, given the fee the Seagulls would demand, there's an acceptance that any deal could prove challenging. PSG 's Gianluigi Donnarumma is another player who could be on the move with the Parisians leaving him out of their squad for this week's European Super Cup. PSG are open to his exit with United among those keen. Here's the latest news lines from the Red Devils. Sesko signing cancels protest Manchester United supporters group The 1958 has pulled the plug on a planned protest. The group had planned to march against Sir Jim Ratcliffe's ownership ahead of United's opening Premier League game, against Arsenal. Their decision comes just days after Sesko joined the club. The striker signing in a deal worth up to £74m. In early August, The 1958 shared plans for a protest while claiming "shiny new signings" shouldn't distract from minority owner Ratcliffe's involvement. However, following a mixed response to the announcement, the group then put the plans to its membership. While the majority of those surveyed agreed Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS should be judged on what they have delivered, some 68 percent felt they deserved more time to show what they can do. In announcing the postponement of the march, The 1958 published a breakdown of the voting. Antony ultimatum issued The Red Devils have issued winger Antony with an ultimatum as the Brazilian attempts to secure a move to Real Betis. The club have demanded the Brazilian winger to accept a transfer offer this week or risk remaining on the sidelines at Old Trafford until January. The La Liga side want to see the former Ajax man return to the club but want to hang on until the final moments of the transfer window to close a deal with United for a loan with option or obligation to buy. But those on the red side of Manchester want to seal an exit, according to reports in Spain, and have already received offers that they would deem financially suitable and do not want to regard Betis as their only option. Lewandowsi eyed Man Utd move Robert Lewandowski has revealed that he "said yes" to the opportunity to move to Manchester to play under Sir Alex Ferguson - only for the move never to happen. The Barcelona star has been one of Europe's outstanding No 9s for more than a decade, but a different path may have seen him play at Old Trafford under the Scot in his final year as a manager. It was in 2012 that he gave the green light to move to Manchester from Borussia Dortmund for what would've been the final spell of Ferguson's stint in Manchester. The interest came off the back of a season where Lewandowski claimed the Bundesliga title, scoring 30 times. The Polish star told the BBC: "To Manchester United I decided and said yes. I wanted to join Manchester United, to see Alex Ferguson."

World No 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler suffers huge blow ahead of PGA Tour playoff event
Scottie Scheffler will be without his caddie Ted Scott when he tees it up at this week's BMW Championship in a huge blow for golf's world No 1. Scott has been a mainstay in Scheffler's professional career for the past four years, but a family emergency last weekend saw him rush back to his home in Louisiana. The change in circumstance led to Scheffler turning to a chaplain and close friend to help him out with the final round of the FedEx St Jude on Sunday, and now it'll be all change again this week. The recent Open champion and four-time major winner will have Mike Cromie on his bag instead, as he continues his foray into the FedEx Cup playoffs. Scott's personal matter has so far not yet been disclosed, but it is expected Scheffler will field questions about his close friend's absence as the week progresses. The world No 1 is due to begin the tournament on Thursday at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, where he will be paired with Rory McIlroy for the first round of the penultimate tournament of the season. Cromie has served as the caddie for six-time PGA Tour winner Chris Kirk in the past. Kirk, however, fell short of qualifying for the BMW Championship at 51st in the FedExCup rankings - the top 50 advanced to this week's event. It could turn into a lucrative weekend for the stand-in caddie if Scheffler is in his usual imperious form... form that has earned Scott an eye-watering amount over the past few years. The American's regular wins have even seen Scott earn more than most players on the PGA Tour, as he takes home an estimated 10% of Scheffler's prize money. This season he has already banked $20.36m in tournament prize money, giving Scott just over $2m for himself. On top of that, Scheffler has another $23m in bonus money - but it is unclear how much commission his caddie is on when it comes to that.

Dave Challinor wants Stockport to be rewarded in Carabao Cup draw
Second-half headers from Kyle Wootton and Nathan Lowe plus Lewis Fiorini's strike secured County victory at Edgeley Park to dump out the Railwaymen, whose late consolation came from Emre Tezgel. Challinor will have a keen eye on Wednesday's draw, which includes Manchester United among the 11 Premier League clubs entering the competition. He said: 'The second-half performance was much better and had much more intent about us. I was disappointed with our first half because of what we wanted the players to do and they didn't do that. 'It was too placid in the first half that we played. I'm delighted to win, that's the aim and hence why we picked the team that we did. Tonight was about progressing and we've done that and hopefully we get rewarded for that with a nice draw.' Lee Bell felt his Crewe side were undone by poor defending for Stockport's first two goals. He said: 'We're obviously disappointed to be knocked out of a competition. We knew we were going to be understrength and then you get here and see the players they had on the team sheet. 'But I think shape-wise and the way we tried to play was good. I've just said to the players if we want to achieve anything, you've got to stop crosses coming into your box and you've got to mark inside the box, because ultimately those two goals have cost us.'
