Sky has launched its new Sky Sports+ dedicated channel and numerous live streams.
The launch of Sky Sports+ comes in time for the EFL opening weekend, with every game from across the Championship, League One and League Two streamed live, a first in broadcasting history.
On Saturday 10 August, Sky will offer 30 matches across all three divisions broadcast either on Sky Sports linear channels or streamed via Sky Sports+.
Beyond live sport, Sky Sports+ will also give customers access to Sky’s sports documentaries at least two weeks before other Sky channels. This starts with Mission to Burnley 2, following Burnley FC’s return to the Premier League last season.
