Just seen [this article on BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67619756). Have to say I’m disappointed, I thought/hoped Amazon would take more games going forward, surely they’d have seen a big uptake of Prime memberships as a result?! I wouldn’t have minded paying something like £10pm for a Prime membership if it meant I got to watch a decent amount of footy. As much as I enjoy watching football, I can’t justify the Sky cost for doing so.
Long term I’d have hoped for a premier league streaming service of their own but that looks like it wont happen anytime soon.

I’m just happy because I use nowtv sky sports membership. Think it’s about 25€ a month. Currently pay it and barely get any games but happy to get more
Sky has been awarded four of the five packages and will show a minimum of 215 matches a season including Saturday 5.30pm kick-offs, Sunday 2pm and 4.30pm kick-offs, plus evening games on Mondays and Fridays and three midweek rounds.
TNT will show a minimum of 52 matches a season including all 12.30pm kick-offs on Saturdays and two midweek match rounds.
Sky Sports will also broadcast all 10 matches on the final day of each season.
Amazon, which shows 20 matches per season under the league’s current deal, has not secured rights in the new agreement.
And as such my IPTV subscription will continue
Tnt is 29.99 a month
Sky sports is 18 a month
And even if you go for both you don’t get any 3pm kick offs on saturdays
