Disney+ gets exclusive Saturday primetime matches, while Premier Sports keeps hold of over 340 matches per season as the main broadcaster.
Disney+ kicks off their exclusive Saturday evening coverage this weekend with Valencia CF hosting Real Sociedad at 8:30pm.
Next week brings some serious heavyweight action – newly promoted Levante UD taking on current champions FC Barcelona, followed by RCD Mallorca versus Real Madrid on 30th August.
These aren’t throwaway fixtures either. Disney+ has secured the Saturday evening slot specifically designed to showcase LaLiga’s biggest teams without clashing with Premier League coverage.
That means regular appearances from Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atlético Madrid – exactly the matches most UK fans want to watch.
Meanwhile, Premier Sports keeps everything else – over 340 matches per season including El Clásico encounters that don’t fall on Saturday evenings, plus Copa del Rey coverage and Spain’s Segunda División.
