Serie A’s UK broadcast rights sit with TNT Sports through to the 2028-29 season. Every Serie A match airs on TNT Sports’ channels or Discovery+ Premium. The package was previously held by BT Sport before the Warner Bros. Discovery rebrand to TNT Sports in July 2023.
Serie A is Italy’s top division. Twenty clubs play 38 matchdays from August to May. Inter Milan, AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli are the historic title contenders. The 2024-25 season saw a Napoli title under Antonio Conte.
Where Serie A matches air
TNT Sports’ four channels rotate Serie A matches. Saturday evening’s marquee match (8:45pm Italian time, 7:45pm UK time) typically airs on TNT Sports 2 with replays on Discovery+. Sunday lunchtime matches (12:30pm Italian time, 11:30am UK time) air on Discovery+ with TNT Sports linear in occasional weeks.
Discovery+ Premium streams every Serie A match. The platform’s content library runs to thousands of hours including Serie A historical matches.
A free-to-air partner does not exist for Serie A in the UK. Highlights run on TNT Sports’ YouTube channel with delayed publication.
Match scheduling
Serie A matchweeks spread across Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Saturday hosts three matches at 3pm, 6pm, and 8:45pm Italian time. Sunday runs the main matchday block with seven matches at 12:30pm, 3pm (multiple), 6pm, and 8:45pm Italian time. Monday closes the matchweek with one 8:45pm fixture.
UK kick-off times are Italian time minus one hour. Saturday 2pm, 5pm, and 7:45pm. Sunday 11:30am, 2pm, 5pm, and 7:45pm in UK time.
Serie A clubs to watch in 2025-26
Napoli enter the season as defending champions under Antonio Conte. Inter Milan and AC Milan remain the Milan-based heavyweights, with Inter the more recent Champions League finalists (2023). Juventus continue rebuilding post the financial difficulties.
Atalanta have established themselves as a regular Champions League side. Roma and Lazio battle for Europa League and Conference League qualification. Bologna’s Champions League qualification in 2023-24 was the surprise of recent seasons.
The relegation battle typically pulls in the three promoted Serie B sides plus one or two financially constrained top-flight clubs.
