The Premier League match between Burnley and Brighton & Hove Albion is scheduled to kick off at Turf Moor at 3pm today. The match is a key part of the top-flight return schedule after the recent international break, with both teams looking to pick up vital points towards their respective end-of-season targets.
Burnley vs Brighton is not currently available to watch live on TV in the UK. As this game falls within the Saturday 3pm slot, the Saturday blackout applies and these games are legally prohibited from being televised domestically to encourage fans to attend games in person across all leagues.
Fans will be able to listen to live audio commentary of the match while television coverage is blocked. National and local broadcasters will provide you with the latest information, but check out BBC Radio 5 Live or your local BBC station for exclusive in-match coverage from the stadium, in addition to radio broadcasts from each club’s website, as today’s focus is on Brentford vs Everton.
Official UK streaming platforms such as Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime will not be showing the match live. To maintain the integrity of the live football experience, the 3pm blackout will apply strictly to digital broadcasts as it does to traditional TV, even as TNT is integrated into the HBO Max UK platform.
Your first chance to watch the goal on TV is tonight on BBC One’s Match of the Day. It’s the most popular way to watch the latest Premier League goals and action for free, with the program scheduled to start at 10.25pm.
Current rules won’t allow it to be broadcast today, but the Premier League recently made a major announcement that hints at the blackout potentially coming to an end. However, the domestic blackout remains in place for the 2025/26 season, with fans still having to navigate the traditional division of rights between major broadcasters for televised matches.
