Meanwhile, OneFootball has expanded its partnership with NSports, the Brazilian streaming service, to provide coverage of the domestic third-tier Brasileiro Serie C.
The soccer platform will offer single-match, pay-per-view access for over 45 Serie C games this season.
Fans in Brazil will have access to five matches per round, streamed live in Portuguese on the OneFootball platform.
The streaming service will provide its users with the live feed produced and branded by NSports. Fans can watch the live action for R$10.90 ($2.15) per match.
In addition to the paid offering, OneFootball will also show highlights of the matches, as well as other content from the competition.
Content will be available via OneFootball’s owned and operated platforms, as well as its video distribution network, which claims to deliver over 15 million monthly views in Brazil alone.
Earlier this year, NSports agreed a two-year broadcast deal with OneFootball to provide the soccer portal with live coverage of Brazil’s Campeonato Paranaense and Campeonato Catarinens competitions for the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
The enhanced agreement with NSports strengthens OneFootball’s Brazilian soccer portfolio which includes a recently announced multi-territory distribution partnership for the top-flight Brasileirão Serie A with the league’s worldwide distribution partner, the South American marketing agency 1190 Sports.
Last month, OneFootball, partnered with Brazilian commercial broadcasting giant Globo to show highlights from top domestic competitions.
The portal also has club partnerships in Brazil with Bahia, Corinthians, Santos, Red Bull Bragantino, and Internacional, as well as a tie-up with the Brazilian Football Confederation.
