Amazon to Stream English Premier League Soccer Matches
Amazon will show two full rounds of matches per season, comprising 20 games, for three years starting in 2019, the Premier League said in a statement Thursday. The games will be available on Amazon Prime Video at no extra cost to users, Amazon said.
Amazon has been pushing into live sports broadcasting, a strategy for luring subscribers that threatens U.K. pay-TV services Sky Plc and BT Group Plc., which own the majority of live U.K. broadcasting rights to Premier League soccer.
