How to watch or stream the Bundesliga
BT Sport has the rights to show all Bundesliga matches in the UK. There are usually five or six separate timeslots during the weekend, with Friday evening games, Saturday afternoon and evening, as well as Sunday afternoon and evening games and sometimes matches on Monday nights.
With no other major football on due to the coronavirus crisis, BT Sport is not restricted by the 3pm broadcast blackout in the UK and will show Bundesliga games at 2:30pm on Saturdays.
As well as through BT Sport and BT Sport Extra through the red button on your television, Bundesliga games can also be streamed through the BT Sport app on iOS and Android devices.
In the US, Fox is the main broadcaster for German football, but Bundesliga matches are shown on Fox Sports 1, Fox Sports 2, Fox Soccer Plus, TUDN USA, FOX Deportes, FOX Soccer Match Pass and TUDN USA.
In South Africa, unfortunately DStv did not secure the rights to broadcast the Bundesliga prior to the start of the season and thus still do not have the rights. So, if you looking to watch some live football you’re going to have to stream it.
