Rangers FC continue to compete in the Scottish Premiership for 2025-26 and have qualified for European group-stage football. The Glasgow club’s broadcast presence in the UK splits across Sky Sports (Scottish Premiership rights), Premier Sports (Scottish Cup) and TNT Sports / Discovery+ (Europa League / Champions League depending on qualification round).
Ibrox Stadium is the most-televised non-Old Firm UK fixture outside the Premier League. The Old Firm derby against Celtic remains the marquee Scottish broadcast pick of every season.
Where Rangers matches air
| Competition | UK broadcaster | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Scottish Premiership | Sky Sports / BBC Scotland | Sky carries 60 live matches per season; BBC Scotland highlights on Sportscene |
| Scottish Cup | Premier Sports / BBC Scotland | Premier Sports holds primary live rights |
| League Cup (Premier Sports Cup) | Premier Sports | Sponsored cup, full coverage |
| Europa League / Champions League | TNT Sports / Discovery+ | UK rights to all UEFA club competitions sit with TNT for 2024-27 |
| RangersTV | Club platform | Reserves, U18s, friendlies, archived matches; no live first-team Premiership |
Old Firm and the broadcast picks
Rangers v Celtic at Ibrox typically draws Sky Sports’ Sunday lunchtime headline slot. The Celtic Park return fixture is usually the Saturday 12:30 broadcast. With four league meetings per Scottish Premiership season and frequent cup overlaps, Old Firm coverage averages 6-7 televised matches per cycle.
For non-derby matches, Sky Sports rotates its 60-match annual quota across all 12 Premiership clubs but Rangers and Celtic are over-indexed — typically 14-16 Rangers matches per season are picked, with the rest available on club-paid live streaming via the Scottish Premiership’s international subscription service (geo-blocked in the UK).
Rangers in Europe 2025-26
Rangers’ European pathway depends on Champions League qualifying-round results. If they fall to the Europa League, all matches air on TNT Sports for UK viewers. If they reach the Conference League playoff route, the same TNT Sports / Discovery+ stream applies — UEFA’s UK rights are unified for the 2024-27 cycle.
Match-day broadcast windows:
- Tuesday 8pm or 5:45pm UK — Champions League matchdays
- Thursday 8pm or 5:45pm UK — Europa League / Conference League matchdays
Rangers abroad
For overseas Rangers fans, 2025-26 access:
- United States — Paramount+ (Scottish Premiership selected) / fuboTV
- Canada — fuboTV
- Ireland — Premier Sports
- Australia — Premier Sports / beIN Sports
- Northern Ireland — Sky Sports (UK rights apply)
- Scotland (overseas tartan army) — most countries lack a direct broadcast deal; the Scottish Premiership’s “Scottish FA Cup TV” geo-blocked package is the official international option
