The total cost for watching evert televised Premier League, Champions League, Europea League and Conference League match in the 2024/25 season has emerged.
Fans who want to watch every bit of action from English teams home and abroad will need to manage three different streaming subscriptions and make use of monthly passes to access all of the games and keep costs down.
The price of watching on TV is more expensive than the cheapest season ticket in all but four Premier League grounds, with only Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool and Chelsea coming in at more expensive than the three streaming services showing live football this year.

The Premier League is split into seven separate packages but just three broadcasters have signed up to show the games this season.
Sky has 128 Premier League games including the first weekend pick, meaning they can choose the top game of the weekend.
It will broadcast those games on Friday nights, Saturday 5.30pm and 7.30pm slots, as well as Sunday games.
TNT will have 52 Premier League matches including the early 12.30pm kick off on a Saturday, a fixture Liverpool were chosen to play more than any other club in the 2023/24 season.
The fixture picks were a constant source of complaint from manager Jurgen Klopp and it looks like his successor Arne Slot will have the same issues after Liverpool’s season opener against Ipswich was chosen for the TNT slot.

TNT will also have the rights to all European games including the Conference League, Europa League and Champions League games.
However TNT will not show every Champions League match shown in the UK as Amazon has secured rights to some games for the first time. Amazon Prime Video will show 17 first-pick Champions League matches on Tuesday night, in what will be their first-ever season of providing live coverage of the competition.
It means fans will need three separate subscriptions to watch every match in the Premier League, Football League, Champions League, Europa League and Conference League in the new 2023/24 season.
The easiest option would be to sign up for a Sky Sports subscription and it is currently giving away free Sky Glass smart TVs worth up to £1,200 with subscriptions in a pre-season sale.

If fans do not want to be stuck to a contract they can make use of daily, monthly and seasonal subscriptions but even the cheapest options would cost a minimum of £669 over the course of a season.
To get the cheapest way to watch every game you would need to head to Sky and buy a NowTV pass. The monthly cost comes in at £34.99 and you would need it for 10 months to get to the end of May at a cost of £349.99. It is actually cheaper to pay for 12 months at £26 a month, making the total cost £312.
You will then need to head to TNT, now owned by Discovery+ after BT sold the channels, and pick up monthly passes for the next 10 months until the Champions League final takes place. That costs £30.99 a month for a total price of £309.90. You can sign up here.

Amazon is harder to judge. If you have not yet used a free trial of Amazon Prime Video, which will give you access to the Premier League and Champions League games, you should wait until December, when there will be two rounds of Premier League games including the Boxing Day fixtures.
You would then have to pay for a month of Prime at £8.99 a time to see the Tuesday night Champions League fixtures when they are announced.
The Premier League begins with Manchester United's clash with Fulham live on Sky Sports on Friday 16 August.
