Before the 2024/25 season kicks off, Cambridge United want to clear up some updates about streaming and how fans can watch games, whether you’re in the UK or overseas..
This season marks a new five-year domestic TV deal between the EFL and Sky Sports, plus a fresh CUFC TV channel that’s taking over from the Club’s i Follow service used recently.
Below is a handy Q& A that explains what this all means for supporters.
If I’m in the UK, how can I watch Cambridge United matches on my TV or digital device next season?
If you’re in the UK, you can catch United games outside of the Article 48 Blackout Window on current Sky Sports channels or on the brand-new Sky Sports+ channel. This works through live streams and a redesigned app for TVs and mobile devices.
Sky Sports+ comes included with all existing Sky Sports subscriptions. Plus, the updated Sky Sports app will be your go-to spot for sports streaming on phones and tablets, with direct access to Sky Sports+ streams.
