Receiver or internet: how to watch in the best quality
- Receiver and dish: the lowest delay behind live, and no reliance on the internet.
- Apps such as TOD: watch on any device and away from home, but you need a stable 15–25 Mbps for 4K.
- Before kick-off: restart your router and test the channel in good time; if it buffers, see our buffering fix guide.
Important note
Broadcast rights can differ in some countries and change with new contracts. Always check the broadcaster in your country before subscribing. Sources: beIN: Premier League until 2028, beIN: UEFA competitions until 2027, Argaam: Thmanyah wins Saudi football rights.
