Sky Sports now 66p a day with 2025/26 Premier League season just days away
@Source: walesonline.co.uk
The 2025/26 Premier League season is just days away and football fans can get Sky Sports for 66p per day . The new campaign is set to kick off on Friday, August 15, with title holders Liverpool taking on Bournemouth at Anfield. Among the other must-see matches in the opening weekend are Wolves vs Man City, Chelsea vs Crystal Palace and Man United vs Arsenal. Each of these games will be shown exclusively on Sky Sports as the broadcaster increases its Premier League coverage from 128 matches to at least 215 starting this season. Sky claims this covers 80% of all televised Premier League matches. To catch all these fixtures – plus more than 1,000 live games across the EFL, SPFL, WSL and Bundesliga – footie fans need to secure a Sky Sports subscription, which is priced at £20 per month in an introductory offer . This works out at roughly 66p per day over a 30-day period and grants access to nine Sky Sports channels including Main Event, Premier League, Football, F1, Golf and Tennis. It also includes the newly launched Sky Sports+ channel at no additional cost, which provides live streams of more than 1,000 live EFL games, every Carabao Cup fixture and every match from the men's Rugby Super League, reports the Mirror . The only catch is that those without an existing Sky package will need to pair Sky Sports with a TV and Netflix plan. However, these combined plans were revamped last year and now start at £35 for Essential TV and Sky Sports . This package includes more than 100 regular TV channels such as Sky Atlantic, along with free Netflix and Discovery+ subscriptions. For an additional £20, customers can also add TNT Sports to their package, a much cheaper option than the £30.99 it costs to subscribe directly through Discovery+ Premium , allowing them to enjoy next season's European competitions. This offer comes as Virgin Media launches its rival Summer of Sports sale , which provides substantial discounts across its own Sky Sports packages until September 2. These start with the Bigger Combo bundle + Sports, which includes more than 200 TV channels, eight of which are from Sky Sports such as Main Event, Football and F1. The package also includes 516Mbps fibre broadband, all of which has been reduced from £65.99 to £54.99 – a saving of £264. However, a drawback to both Sky and Virgin's plans is that customers will experience at least two bill increases during their 24-month term as each provider raises their prices every April. This year, Sky introduced a 6.2% increase for its TV customers but has yet to confirm next year's change. Virgin has already confirmed that the Bigger Combo bundle + Sports will rise to £58.49 from April 2026 and £61.99 from April 2027. What sets Sky apart from its competitors is the opportunity to cancel a contract after a price rise is announced, an option not offered by Virgin.
