The following information shows when streaming is allowed on a Saturday afternoon, for Season 2024-2025. UPDATED to confirm 3rd May has been added as an allowed date.

NOTE: As of Friday 8th August 2025 the UEFA website has NOT been updated with dates for 2025-2026. As they have to give 14 days prior notice before the start of the season, we are assuming there is no block on a Saturday for Season 2025-2026.

The regulations clearly state that it must be decided prior to 14 days before the start of the season, as of today the the season starts Tonight, and there is still no word of any block-dates. The clubs have not yet been given any information regarding a block-period (as of Thursday 31st August 2025):
Regulation from Article 48
2. The two and a half hours period (or periods) must be decided on by the member
association fourteen days, at the latest, before the beginning of its domestic season,
at which time they will enter into force and apply for the whole season.


Season 2024-2025:

The UEFA website link below gives details.

The EFl has made the following staterment:
ARTICLE 48
Does the EFL believe the new rights agreement could negatively impact on club attendances?

-- As Article 48 has been protected, we do not believe that attendances will be significantly impacted by more match action being made available.
-- Nothing beats the live matchday experience and we are confident that fans that can and are able to attend a match will continue to do so in the large numbers that we continue to see through the turnstiles.
-- We also know that there is a large demand from fans that cannot always get to games, so making more EFL action available through one established provider represents another way of taking EFL action to the audience.

These statements have been found as fact during the last 4 years. Fans have proved they want to attend live matches, however, fans that cannot make live matches still want to see their team.

Continuing the Saturday afternoon block does not help football clubs or fans wanting to watch their team.
