NOW TV provides flexible streaming access to Sky Sports channels, yet Sky no longer holds UK Champions League rights for the 2024 to 2027 cycle. Coverage now belongs to TNT Sports, the rebranded BT Sport network, meaning live matches including the final are not available through a standard NOW TV Sports Membership.
TNT Sports is integrated into the Discovery Plus Premium tier which costs twenty nine pounds ninety nine per month standalone or can be added to EE and Virgin Media bundles. Existing NOW TV customers therefore need a separate subscription if they wish to follow the competition live on their devices.
Some viewers confuse the situation because the NOW TV app supports add on passes for Sky Cinema, Hayu and Peacock. No such pass exists for TNT Sports, and technical agreements between Sky and Warner Bros Discovery do not currently allow TNT’s linear channels to appear inside the NOW platform.
A possible workaround is to subscribe to TNT Sports through BT TV or Virgin and then use the Discovery Plus login on smart televisions already running the NOW app ecosystem. This still requires two distinct subscriptions but keeps viewing consolidated on a single device interface.
Highlights remain free to air on the official UEFA YouTube channel two hours after full time, and the final is traditionally streamed free by TNT Sports on their website. However fans who want uninterrupted live coverage must budget separately from any existing NOW TV commitments.
