Prime Video is home to a huge catalogue of world-class entertainment, including blockbuster movies, hit shows, award-winning Amazon Originals, and even live sport.
Live sport is part of Prime Video’s growing line-up of sports programming in the UK, including the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, Ligue 1, and the UEFA Nations League.
With Prime Video, tuning in to watch your team couldn’t be easier.
How do you watch live football on Prime Video?
In the UK, Prime members have access to the top Tuesday match of the UEFA Champions League within their subscription for no additional cost.
In addition, football fans can access a wide selection of live sports via add-on subscriptions and pay-per-view events on Prime Video. This includes additional UEFA Champions League and Premier League matches through a discovery+ subscription, NFL through an NFL Game Pass subscription, and Ligue 1 French Football and UEFA Men’s National Team football matches for just £2.49 per match via pay-per-view.
You’ll find all UEFA Champions League on Prime matches, or other sports events on Prime Video, underneath the ‘Sports’ tab at the top of the homepage. Once on the sports home page, you’ll see a carousel of “Your live and upcoming events,” which contains matches included with your Prime membership, add-on subscriptions, or ones which you have paid for.
Alternatively, you can search for the match or championship you want to watch using the search function.
Football fans can also enjoy an updated watch experience for the UEFA Champions League matches. Using the new “Rapid Recap” feature, fans who join the coverage after kick-off can watch a highlights reel of the action missed. The new “Key Moments” navigation bar will also allow them to jump between the most important moments of the game including cards, penalties, VAR decisions, and goals.
