Sportdigital, the German sports-focused broadcaster, has extended its deal to show Portuguese soccer’s top-flight Primeira Liga for two more seasons.
The league will continue to be broadcast on the Sportdigital Fussball channel and the Sportdigital+ streaming platform in the 2026-27 and 2027-28 campaigns, having held rights to the competition since 2013.
The rights deal was brokered by international sports marketing agency Sportfive.
The new Portuguese league season will start on August 7, with Sportdigital to provide coverage from the opening day.
The first match to be aired is the clash between GD Estoril Praia and FC Famalicão on Friday.
The following day, Sportdigital will show Sporting Lisbon vs. Estrela Amadora, then champions FC Porto vs. FC Alverca and Benfica vs. Académico Viseu on Sunday.
Sportdigital's soccer rights portfolio also includes domestic top-flight leagues in Brazil (Serie A), the Netherlands (Eredivisie), Saudi Arabia (Saudi Pro League), Poland (Ekstraklasa), and English women’s soccer (WSL).
The broadcaster additionally holds rights to Asia's AFC Champions League Elite, South America’s iconic Copa Libertadores, and Spain's Supercopa.
Sportdigital Fussball provides 24/7 coverage and is widely available in the DACH region – through platforms such as Sky Deutschland (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), Vodafone, Magenta V, and Zattoo.
