Where to watch Premier League live in India - streaming and ...

The Premier League, also called the English Premier League (EPL), is the top-tier professional football tournament in England. Founded in 1992, the season runs from August to May.

Live streaming and telecast of the Premier League 2024-25 season will be available in India.

A typical Premier League season consists of 380 matches. There are 20 teams in the EPL and they each play the other twice - at home and away. Each club, thus, plays 38 matches.

There are three points awarded for a win and one each for a draw. A loss earns no points. The team with the most points on the table at the end of the season lifts the Premier League trophy.

If teams are tied on points, the ranking is established first by goal difference, then the total number of goals scored, head-to-head record and finally a playoff match.

At the end of the season, the three teams that finish at the bottom of the league standings are relegated to the EFL Championship, the second tier of English football. The top three teams from the Championship, meanwhile, are promoted to the EPL.

The top four teams in the Premier League also qualify for the UEFA Champions League. The top three teams go directly into the group stage, while the fourth-place team enters the playoff round. The team that finishes fifth qualifies for the UEFA Europa League.

Depending on the allocation of European spots, the team finishing sixth or seventh may qualify for the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Manchester United are the most successful club in the Premier League with 20 titles. Liverpool are next with 19. Arsenal have 13 titles and Manchester City have 10.

Manchester City are the defending champions. They have bagged the last four titles on the trot.

The Premier League matches will be telecast live on the Star Sports Select HD 1 TV channel in India.

Live streaming of the Premier League will be available on Disney+Hotstar. The service is not free and will require a subscription.
