LiveTV Guide

About LiveTV Guide

LiveTV Guide is an independent editorial directory of legal sports broadcasts across the United States, Germany and France. The site exists to answer a single question for each major sports competition: which official broadcaster carries this match, on which subscription, at what price.

We publish in three languages because sports rights are negotiated by country, and the answer to “where can I watch the Champions League” looks materially different in Berlin than it does in Paris or Brooklyn. Each of the three editions is written from the ground up for its audience — not translated from a single master English source.

Who we are

LiveTV Guide is operated by an independent editorial team. We are not affiliated with any sports league, broadcaster, rights-holder, distributor, technology vendor, or other unlicensed website. The editorial direction is set independently of any commercial relationship.

The site name reflects our positioning. Guide is the operative word. We are a navigator, not a destination. The destination is the official broadcaster.

What we publish

Each major competition has a dedicated page that covers:

  • The official rights-holder in the relevant country
  • The subscription price as of the current month
  • The free-to-air option where one exists
  • The realistic monthly viewing footprint for a typical follower
  • The historical context of how the broadcast rights arrived where they are today

Football pages include a fixture widget that draws from a public sports data API to surface upcoming matches and kickoff times. The widget is a schedule listing only — it does not host, stream, or link to playback of any match.

What we do not publish

We do not publish scores. We do not embed video. We do not link to, host, recommend, describe or aggregate unauthorised broadcasts of any kind. We do not run a directory of third-party websites that operate outside the licensing framework.

Frequently asked questions

Which broadcaster shows the most live sports in 2025/26?
No single broadcaster carries everything. ESPN+ and Peacock anchor most U.S. football and league coverage; Paramount+ holds UEFA Champions League and Serie A; Apple TV has the exclusive MLS Season Pass deal; Amazon Prime Video carries Thursday Night Football. Each sport’s landing page on this site names the official rights-holder for the current season.
Can major sports be watched legally for free?
Free-to-air coverage in the U.S. is limited to over-the-air NFL games on the major networks (CBS, FOX, NBC, ABC) and select championship events. Almost everything else — Premier League, Champions League, NBA League Pass, MLB — requires a paid subscription. Peacock and Paramount+ offer the lowest entry tiers; YouTube TV and Hulu + Live TV bundle the regional sports networks.
What is the cheapest way to watch the Premier League in the United States?
The U.S. Premier League rights belong to NBC through 2028. The cheapest legal access is Peacock Premium at $7.99/month, which carries most Saturday/Sunday matches not on NBC or USA Network. There is no free legal stream. The Peacock app is also where any Premier League game not selected by the linear NBC broadcast lives.
Does LiveTV Guide host any streams?
No. LiveTV Guide is strictly editorial — we publish kickoff times, official broadcaster names and subscription details. We never host, embed, link to or describe how to access unauthorised streams. For copyright concerns write to [email protected].
