The vast majority of fixtures are on Ligue 1+ (≈ €14.99/mo), with one per round on beIN SPORTS (≈ €15/mo). No legal service offers all of Ligue 1 for free.
Most matches are on Canal+ (≈ €29.99/mo). One tie per week, on Tuesday, is on Prime Video, included in Amazon Prime (≈ €6.99/mo).
France national-team matches, much of the World Cup and Euros, and some finals, on TF1, M6 and France Télévisions. Molotov TV gives free access to these channels.
No. A subscription promising 'all channels' of football for a few euros resells unlicensed streams: it is illegal and often a scam. We recommend none.
To cover Ligue 1 and the Champions League, budget roughly €45–55/month by combining Ligue 1+, Canal+ and Prime Video. Prices are indicative.
The official apps (myCANAL, beIN Connect, DAZN, Prime Video, Molotov, Ligue 1+) work on mobile, computer, smart TV, Apple TV, Chromecast and Fire TV.
