- 200 games up for grabs.
- No single broadcaster is allowed to acquire more than 148 games.

Highlights staying with BBC

Quote:
The Premier League has today concluded the sale of its UK audiovisual highlights package, with BBC Sport acquiring the rights to broadcast highlights of all 380 Premier League in each of the three seasons from 2019/20 to 2021/22.



Under the agreement BBC Sport will continue to broadcast its iconic Match of the Day show on Saturday nights, and the range of additional BBC programming that brings the Premier League closer to fans, including Match of the Day 2, Match of the Day Extra, MOTD Kickabout, Football Focus, Final Score and the Premier League Show.


Following an open and competitive process, the BBC has retained the rights with a bid of £211.5million.

Global tech giants Amazon are unlikely to bid for Premier League rights in next month's auction for one good reason - they lack sufficient statistics of their own on TV sports rights.

Amazon's approach is based on analytics and having only just started acquiring major sports rights, they may not have enough information at their fingertips to spend heavily on the Premier League in one country.
Their cautious attitude is demonstrated by the delayed opening this week of their pioneering checkout-free Amazon Go convenience store in Seattle - they had wanted to ensure the sensor technology which tracks all purchases was fully operational.

Another sign of their safety-first strategy is Amazon's decision to gauge viewer reaction to their £10million fly-on-the-wall documentary series inside Manchester City, which will be broadcast at the end of the season, before they sign a similar contract with another PL club.

The new Premier League package of midweek simulcast coverage of all matches on the night is seen as the option that interests Amazon most this time around.

But serious doubts were expressed at the UEFA Nations League draw in Lausanne this week whether the UK's inconsistent broadband infrastructure could cope with streaming up to eight matches simultaneously across the country.

BT have bought one package, Sky have bought four, for a combined £4.5bn.

Still two packages left.

The two packages left are the worst, both in terms of number of matches and the quality/timing. Doesn’t look like there’ll be a huge increase on the last deal
