Amazon Prime Video Football: What Matches Are Available in the UK in 2026?

Last updated: March 2026

Amazon Prime football has become an essential part of the Premier League broadcasting landscape in the UK. Since securing their groundbreaking deal in 2019, Prime Video has established itself as the go-to destination for festive fixtures and midweek Premier League action. If you’re wondering what matches Amazon shows and how to watch them in 2026, you’ve come to the right place. For a complete rundown of today’s football on TV, WhatChan has you covered.

How Many Premier League Matches Does Amazon Prime Show in 2026?

Under the current UK broadcasting rights cycle (2022–2025, extended arrangements continuing into 2025/26), Amazon Prime Video broadcasts 20 Premier League matches per season exclusively in the UK. These fixtures are concentrated into two key windows:

• December fixtures – A full midweek round of 10 matches during the busy festive period
• Boxing Day or additional midweek round – Another complete round of 10 matches

This arrangement means that Prime Video Premier League coverage delivers some of the most anticipated fixtures of the season, including traditional Boxing Day clashes and crucial December encounters when the title race and relegation battles begin to take shape.

What You Need to Watch Amazon Football UK

To access Amazon Prime football in the UK, you’ll need an active Amazon Prime membership, which currently costs £8.99 per month or £95 per year. The good news? Premier League matches are included at no extra cost—unlike some streaming services that require additional sports add-ons.

Here’s what’s included with your Prime membership for football:

• All 20 exclusive Premier League matches in HD and 4K Ultra HD (where available)
• Pre-match build-up and post-match analysis
• Access via smart TVs, games consoles, Fire TV Stick, tablets, phones, and web browsers
• Option to watch on up to three devices simultaneously

New customers can take advantage of Amazon’s 30-day free trial, which is particularly useful if you want to catch a specific fixture without committing to a subscription.

Amazon Prime Football Schedule: When Are Matches Broadcast?

Unlike Sky Sports and TNT Sports, which broadcast matches throughout the season, Amazon’s Prime Video Premier League schedule is concentrated into specific windows. For the 2025/26 season, expect fixtures to be shown in:

• Early December 2025 – Midweek round (typically a Tuesday/Wednesday)
• Late December 2025 – Boxing Day or the period immediately surrounding it

Match kick-off times vary across the broadcast windows, with Amazon typically showing early evening and prime-time slots. Every match from these rounds is broadcast simultaneously, giving fans unprecedented choice—you can switch between games using the “Goals Centre” feature or focus on your team’s fixture.

Other Football Available on Amazon Prime Video

Beyond the Premier League, Amazon Prime occasionally secures rights to additional football content. In recent years, this has included selected Champions League matches in other European markets and exclusive football documentaries such as All or Nothing series featuring clubs like Arsenal, Tottenham, and Manchester City.
