Best ways to stream football 20/21

Irishgunner

Hi guys

I'm looking at the best ways to stream football for 20/21 - I'm getting tired of looking for shitty flash streams nowadays

Things I want :
Premier league (at least all Arsenal matches)
Champions league
International competitions (Euros 2021 only one really)

I would like, but don't need, at least one of:
La Liga
Serie A
Bundesliga

I don't mind using a vpn to access the streaming, I already have nordVPN

I don't mind paying up to £30 per month for the service. I do want a streaming service as opposed to a TV package so I can use it on the go, and share the login.

Any ideas ? After a quick search DAZN looks decent

Following Soccerstreams getting shut down I'm struggling to get AceStream links from anywhere. Footybite was ok for a while but then it hasn't had a single stream added since before the Covid lockdown.

https://redditts.soccerstreams.net/home

It's still here. Been using it regularly never been shut down.

Big Willie

That website has not been loading for me. Even today after a google search it was one of the links but page never loads.

It was down during the start of our game today. It came back in the second half after the earlier link I had was down and I was searching for a stream

Hey
If you are able to get Smart DNS then I would suggest looking at Showmax South Africa. It’s a steaming service that has most of the HBO library plus all your preferred football Leagues, Europa, and I think Serie A and La Liga for R450 which is about $30 per month. Has highlights as well. It has some other sports but not great. Movie library is good overall. One drawback- no 4K yet

If you're looking for something cheaper I think there's one in NZ that's quite cheap, Spark I think it is. Never used it myself though and don't know how effective it is at countering VPNs.

Are the streams in 1080p?

II is 720,. It looks fine on a mid sized tv (55). The iPad versions are downscaled to 576. But I see no difference vs say Fox Sport on my iPad

We have Spark Sport. Aswell as EPL it has a few other sports on it such as NZ and England cricket, F1, NBA, NFL, WTA tennis. Costs $20NZ a month (about £10) but going up to $25 soon. All games live and on demand so pretty good value. Don't know how well it will go with VPN but you could give it a go with a free trial and see if it works. I couldn't get it to work when I was in USA on holiday last year but was just trying on my phone in hotels and Air BnBs with no control over connection settings.

Note just EPL though. Europa, CL and FA Cup are still on Sky here.

Firestick plus a Sportz IPTV service. I get all the sports channels, BT, Sky, Bein, Premier Sport, Eir sport, all the US sports channels, etc Also has the NBA, NFL, etc networks if you are into that. Plus it has all the regular channels like BBC, ITV, Sky, etc and all American channels Fox, HBO, etc Pretty handy to set up and you get 2 connections for $10

Yup, that’s how I do it also.

I've been looking for a new IPTV service andid a few trials, but none of them impressed me with regards to quality and stability. Is it as good as high quality streams? Sounds like a great set of channels, a lot of IPTV services don't have BEIN and I'd really like to have them for CL.

I bought a programmed firestick for a one off fee of US$85 and I get all those channels for no extra cost. I have no idea how but it works !

QuincyAbeyie

I'm guessing that you have a year of those channels, that's how it usually is.

GooneriC

I bought it in September last year , so will see what happens then. Its $15 to program so wouldn't mind paying that again for another year

Qwiss, which IPTV do you use. I remember one you told me about some years back but could never jump on because they stopped selling subs directly to new customers and were only dealing through resellers.

I've never had a service that didn't have Bein. In terms of quality the one I have and most others I've used have FHD, HD and SD options for each major UK sports channel. I haven't had this one for that long yet so I haven't actually watched a full match on Bein yet as everything has been on BT, Sky, etc but it looks fine from just testing it.

I'm using one called Sportz IPTV.

I'll caveat all this by saying IPTV is a bit of a trial and error thing to find the right fit. ISPs are very aware that people use them and a lot of companies will throttle connections to IPTV services during PL and CL matches. The one I'm using for instance is fine with my ISP but I set it up in my brothers house and had to use a VPN to get around his ISPs throttling.

Yeah I gave one a try last year. It was good at first but still a little hit and miss (some games would be a pain, buffering or having to find another channel mid game etc). Eventually though the ISPs managed to block it and while it was easy enough to circumvent with my VPN on the phone it was way too much of a hassle to do it on the firestick. Put me off from trying another.

Anyway, at the moment I've got both Sky and BT for less than £20 a month combined so here's hoping they continue to show every game until all fans are allowed back.

Qwiss

Yeah I've used IPTV on and off for the last few years, had a good deal like yours on BT, Sky, etc on NowTV since January so hadn't bothered with IPTV but back at it now as the best deal I could get was going to be over €40 a month for both channels. IPTV is a case of your service lasting a few months and then needing a change though, is what it is. Worth it for the savings for me.

I'm using surfshark for my VPN and the firestick app is very handy, started using it to get different netflix options too.
