What Does the Future of Football Viewing Look Like?

A Real Fan: Is This You?

Many of us will digest football in different ways and enjoy what we do. If you want to watch one of the big leagues around Europe then you will need a subscription to a TV channel to do that, free-to-air football is very hard to find, and when you do, it isn’t always the best quality.

However, with the rest of the world moving towards streaming services, what will football viewing look like in the future? Will the traditional feel remain, with subscriptions, or will football move to streaming platforms, with the ability to buy individual games, team passes, and much more, as we see in other parts of the sporting world?

How Streaming is Changing Our Viewing

The streaming world is changing how we all not only watch TV but conduct our lives. Football seems unwilling to fully commit to streaming, probably because of the amount of money that TV deals are currently worth.

Other industries are moving towards streaming though and having success with it. The casino industry, for example, has over the past few years really focused on live games, which players stream while on the casino site. These were limited in the past, but now include many games, including game shows and even football-based games such as Football Studio. Almost all casinos offer this type of gaming, with bonuses and free plays available on them too. As you would discover when you check out this article, many sites are competitive and will offer various packages. Sites like offer more information about casino bonuses and how they can be used.

With players used to streaming, those who are also football fans would seamlessly move across to football streaming with ease, if that ever truly came on board.

Is Combined TV and Streaming the Most Likely?

If you look at what other services are available around the world, most of these are streaming services but with the stipulation put in that events will be blacked out if they are live on TV in the area.

A great example of this is the NFL Game Pass streaming service, for fans who want to watch the NFL. This offers live streaming of games in one place, but those which are chosen for TV coverage in your area, are not available. So, in the UK, NFL games covered on Sky Sports are blacked out, while the remaining games are all live.

This hybrid type model is something that could eventually come into play in the Premier League and other big European football leagues. This would ensure the leagues all have their TV deals in place, which would likely take the best games of each week of the season.

However, the rest, rather than not being shown, would be live and available for fans to stream from a central, controlled service. The 3 pm kick off blackout would have to come to an end for this to work, but if that does then the league would be able to increase income via streaming, while keeping vital TV deals to ensure money is in the game.
