Amazon makes its four remaining Premier League games free-to-air

Amazon is making its four remaining Prime Video fixtures available free-to-air, following the lead of Sky who is making 25 of its remaining 64 fixtures free.

The BBC is also showing four free games. "Like the rest of the country, we are excited to see the Premier League return to action," said Alex Green, MD Prime Video Sport Europe. "We will be making all four of Amazon Prime Video’s additional fixtures in the 2019/20 season available free of charge; fans will not need a Prime membership to view the games on Prime Video."

BT will be showing 20 fixtures, although none of these are free-to-air at present. 

Previously all Amazon Prime members in the UK had access to watch the matches live with their Prime membership, but as mentioned the games will be free for the remainder of this season.
