On Friday, FC Bayern should open the new season for the first division soccer team at its DFB Cup first round match at Bremer SV.
However, nothing will come of this, as there was a corona incident at the fifth division.
Nevertheless, the new season really starts with the first competitive games of the Bundesliga clubs on the weekend.
On Friday next week, August 13th, the champions will come to an opening game after all.
The Munich team initiate the new Bundesliga season in Mönchengladbach.
Two weeks later, the women will start their new season with the game Hoffenheim against Freiburg.
The respective Champions League competitions begin in September and October.
But where can you watch all the games?
We give an overview:
Bundesliga
Sky
is still dominant when it comes to broadcasting the
men's Bundesliga
.
The pay TV broadcaster broadcasts all individual games on Saturday as well as games on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The station will also show all the games in the conference on these days.
There is also the Supercup and the relegation at Sky.
All games
can be seen
on
DAZN
on Fridays and Sundays
.
Some games are also broadcast on free TV by
Sat. 1
, which has secured the rights for individual games on the 1st, 17th and 18th matchdays as well as in relegation and Supercup.
The rights for summaries of the Bundesliga games are shared by
ARD
,
ZDF
,
Sport 1
and
Axel Springer
.
In the
women's Bundesliga
, not much has changed compared to the previous season.
Magenta
continues to show all games, individual games are broadcast by
ARD
and
third-party
programs
.
2nd Bundesliga
Most of the games in the 2nd Bundesliga
can also be seen
on
Sky
, live and in the conference.
The station broadcasts on Friday, Saturday and Sunday as well as during the relegation games.
The newly introduced games on Saturday evening at 8.30 p.m. will also be shown on Sky, but will also run in parallel on free TV on
Sport 1
.
3rd league
In
addition to the women's Bundesliga,
Magenta
is primarily the partner of the 3rd division - and will remain so in the new season: All games are streamed as single games and in the conference.
86 games will also be shown on free TV on ARD channels over the course of the season.
The planning of the transfers for the first appointments can be found here.
DFB Cup
Anyone
interested in
the men's competition
will be well catered for.
Sky
shows all 63 games live, while
ARD
broadcasts nine games per season on free TV.
There will be one in each of the first two rounds, plus two games from the eighth and semi-finals and the final itself.
Sport 1
also broadcasts one game per round from the first round to the quarter-finals
on free TV
.
As usual, the women's trophy doesn't get that much space on the screens.
Six games, the highlight of every main round including the final in Cologne, will be broadcast on
Sky
.
Champions League
From the new season onwards, the
games of the
premier class of men
will mainly
be seen
at
DAZN
.
121 of the 137 games per season will be broadcast on the streaming service over the next two seasons.
DAZN also offers viewers conferences and highlights.
DAZN is replacing Sky, but - as they were last - a competitor who takes over some games.
Amazon Prime
enters the competition and shows the respective top game on Tuesday evening.
A total of 16 games, including two playoff games, will be shown there.
ZDF has
also secured the broadcasting rights
for the three upcoming finals
- even if, as recently, there is no German representative in the final.
The
women's Champions League
will also
show
DAZN in the
future
.
The streaming service secured the rights for the next four seasons.
In the premiere season, DAZN wants to
cooperate
with
YouTube
and show all 61 games free of charge on its channel.
A mixed model of freely available videos and subscription is planned for the future.
