For this new 2022-2023 season, it is once again via the Amazon Prime Video subscription that French football fans will be able to discover 80% of Ligue 1 matches, i.e. the matches that Médiapro had purchased before ending up in default of payment. in 2021. To be precise, this represents 8 matches broadcast on Amazon Prime Video per day of the Ligue 1 championship, including all the most beautiful posters. Amazon has globally recovered the old Médiapro-Téléfoot contract with 8 matches broadcast each day out of the 10 on the program. Amazon Prime Video offers especially the biggest poster of the day of Ligue 1, usually Sunday evening. OM-PSG, PSG-Lyon Monaco-Marseille, Lens-PSG, Marseille-Lyon or Lille-PSG should therefore be broadcast on Amazon each time. Matches will be commented live. Smail Bouabdellah and Julien Brun, passed by BeIN Sports, will be in particular for the comments.

You do not automatically have access to the French championship if you are already an Amazon Prime subscriber. If you are interested in this addition, it will cost you the price of the additional option, an option called “Pass Ligue 1” (see previous paragraphs) billed at 12.99 euros per month.
The Ligue 1 Pass free trial offer is over. From August 1 to 29, 2021, for the launch of the offer, each Amazon Prime Video subscriber could test the Prime Ligue 1 offer for seven days in order to discover the platform dedicated to French football. Since August 29, 2021, however, it is no longer possible to give it a try with the free trial, the offer having expired… You must therefore now subscribe to access the matches but the offer remains without commitment and therefore cancellable at any time.
This is one of the issues that subscribers to streaming services are particularly fond of, multi-screen viewing is very important for potential customers.
