The English Premier League pulls a bigger television audience than any other football competition on the planet, beaming into more than 180 countries every weekend. In Australia, the way you tune in has just changed in a big way.
If you have been hunting for the EPL in its old spot and come up empty, here is where the league has landed and how to stream matches on Sportsbet while you have a punt.
The Premier League's New Home in Australia
For years, Optus Sport was the go-to for English football in Australia. That era is over. Nine Entertainment secured exclusive rights to the Premier League, with matches now split across its streaming service and its free-to-air network.
Optus Sport no longer carries the league, so if that was your old habit, it is time to switch across.
This deal runs for several seasons, which means the new setup is here to stay for a while. It also brings something Australian fans did not have before: select matches streamed in 4K.
Streaming Every EPL 2026 Match on Stan Sport
The full menu lives on Stan Sport. Every one of the 380 Premier League matches across the season is available live, so no fixture slips through the cracks.
Stan Sport is an add-on, which means you need a base Stan subscription first and then the sport pack on top. All up, expect the combined cost to sit around AU$32 a month, and the service runs on phones, tablets, smart TVs and through the app.
Punters coming across from Optus Sport were offered discounted migration rates for a limited window, so it is worth checking what deal applies when you sign up. Pricing shifts, so confirm the current rate before you commit.
The Free-to-Air Option on Nine
A selection of Premier League matches now airs free-to-air on Channel 9 , with the same games streamed for free on 9Now.
You will not get every fixture this way, and the marquee clashes are not guaranteed to be the free pick, but a weekly free match is a big step up from the subscription-only years.
For casual fans who only want to catch the odd game, that alone changes the calculus.
When Is the Premier League On?
The English season runs from August to May, with matches concentrated on the weekend and busy midweek rounds around the festive period.
The time difference does Australian fans a mixed favour. Saturday's early kick-off in England lands late on Saturday night on the east coast, the afternoon games run into the small hours of Sunday morning, and Sunday fixtures push into Monday.
Boxing Day and the New Year rounds are a treat if you are up late over the holidays. Check the schedule round by round and plan your late nights.
How to Stream the Premier League on Sportsbet
Beyond the broadcasters, Sportsbet live streams a massive spread of sport straight through the app and website, and it is a handy way to keep eyes on your bet in real time.
Getting the vision going takes only a few steps:
- Step 1: Download the Sportsbet app or open the Sportsbet website.
- Step 2: Log in or set up your account.
- Step 3: Check you have a positive balance or have placed a bet in the last 24 hours.
- Step 4: Find the soccer section, then the match you want.
- Step 5: Tap the Watch Live icon on that game's betting page.
- Step 6: Sit back and follow the action.
The eligibility rule is the one to remember: a positive balance or a bet in the previous 24 hours unlocks the stream. Streaming availability can change through the season and the odd fixture may not be covered, so check the specific game in the app before kick-off.

A word on approach: the Premier League's relentless schedule means rotation, fatigue and fixture pile-ups swing results more than in most leagues, so a squad's depth and its midweek workload often matter as much as its name.
