Sports streaming in 2026 is expensive, fragmented, and confusing by design. Every broadcaster wants you locked into its ecosystem. By the time you’ve covered Premier League, Champions League, F1, and the odd boxing match, you’re running three or four subscriptions and spending more than you ever did on cable.
We compared the main options head-to-head on price, content breadth, device support, and contract flexibility. Here’s the honest version.
The Comparison
| Service | Price/month | Sports covered | Devices | Contract |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sky Sports (via Now TV) | £34.99 | Premier League, F1, cricket, golf | 6 | Monthly |
| TNT Sports (Discovery+) | £30.99 | UCL, Premier League, boxing, MMA | 4 | Monthly |
| ESPN+ (US) | $10.99 | UFC, NHL, MLB, some PL | 5 | Monthly |
| DAZN (ES/DE/IT) | €14.99–29.99 | LaLiga, Bundesliga, UCL, boxing | 4 | Monthly/Annual |
| F1 TV Pro | €7.99 | F1 only | 3 | Monthly |
| MazzTV Standard | €12.00 | All of the above + 50+ sports channels | 1 | Monthly/Annual |
| MazzTV Premium | €29.00 | All of the above + 50+ sports channels | 3 | Monthly/Annual |
Sky Sports: Best Coverage, Worst Value
Sky Sports is the gold standard for UK sports coverage. 128 Premier League matches, every F1 race, The Ashes, Ryder Cup — it’s comprehensive. At £34.99/month via Now TV (no contract), it’s also one of the most expensive single-sport packages available. The main justification is production quality — Sky’s coverage infrastructure is genuinely world-class. But you’re paying a premium for that, and the content still doesn’t include Champions League.
TNT Sports: Champions League Specialists
TNT Sports (Discovery+) is the UCL home in the UK. £30.99/month also gets you Premier League fixtures, Europa League, boxing, and UFC. The interface has improved significantly in 2025, and the Max streaming quality is reliable. The gap: no F1, limited cricket, and you’re paying almost as much as Sky for a narrower sports menu.
ESPN+ (US): Solid but Incomplete
ESPN+ is excellent value at $10.99/month — if you’re in the US and primarily watch American sports. For Premier League coverage, it’s supplementary: you get some matches, but NBC/Peacock has the main rights. US-based international sports fans almost always need ESPN+ plus at least one other service.
DAZN: Strong in Europe, Limited Everywhere Else
DAZN’s strength is in Spain, Germany, and Italy. In those markets it holds meaningful rights — LaLiga, Bundesliga, Champions League depending on country. Outside those markets it’s largely a boxing platform. Its recent price increases (€29.99/month in Germany for the full sports tier) have frustrated long-term subscribers.
How MazzTV Solves This
MazzTV’s streaming subscription includes all the channels from the services above — Sky Sports, TNT Sports, beIN Sports, DAZN, ESPN, Eurosport — under one plan. You’re not stacking subscriptions; you’re replacing the stack entirely. The Standard plan at €12/month covers one device; Premium at €29/month handles three simultaneous streams at the same price as DAZN’s top tier in Germany, but covering every sport globally.
