Daily Mail: Premier League will offer live TV coverage of every Sunday game

Story from Daily Mail:

The Premier League are set to offer live television coverage of every Sunday match from the season after next in a major change to their broadcast rights strategy.

Mail Sport has learned that as part of a planned increase in the number of live games shown each season from 200 to 270 all Sunday matches could be available by the start of the 2024-25 campaign, which is likely to lead to fans being forced to adapt to a variety of kick-off times throughout the day, from midday until 7pm.

If introduced, the change would bring a major cash boost to clubs playing in the Europa League, as all their games on the subsequent weekend will be televised, netting them around £1million-per-match in a Premier League facilities fee based on the current payments.

The Premier League will also increase the number of Friday and Monday evening TV slots from the 2024-25 season in a bid to attract higher offers from broadcasters in an auction that is due to take place this autumn.

The number of TV packages available is expected to be cut when the tender document is issued in October, with each package containing more matches and with the mini-package of 20 games currently held by Amazon Prime disappearing entirely.

The top-flight's current domestic TV deal is worth £5billion over three years after the previous contract agreed in 2018 was extended without an auction during the pandemic.

The Premier League are hopeful of securing a significant increase for the 2024 to 2027 cycle, particularly as more games will be on offer.

Sky Sports and TNT Sport (formerly BT Sport) will launch major bids, with Amazon, Apple TV and Disney also taking an active interest.
