There is one more weekend of club football to enjoy before the international break, with league action returning on 21 November.

From Manchester United’s meeting with Aston Villa to Barcelona’s showdown with Atletico Madrid, Europe’s biggest leagues have plenty in store. Here are five games to look out for and how to watch them on DStv and GOtv.

Five Games to Look Out For

1. Arsenal vs Hull City - Saturday, 7 November | 4pm

Arsenal will look to protect their three-point lead at the top of the Premier League when they host Hull City. For fans on an entry-level subscription, this is one to note. The match airs on SS Africa (DStv Ch. 208, GOtv Ch. 63), open to all DStv packages and GOtv Starter subscribers, upwards.

2. PSG vs Troyes - Saturday, 7 November | 9:05pm

Selected Ligue 1 matches are available across all DStv packages and on GOtv Starter upwards.

3. Manchester United vs Aston Villa - Sunday, 8 November | 5:30pm

There is plenty riding on this Premier League clash. Manchester United will hope their 3–2 Champions League comeback win over Roma can spark a turnaround after a difficult run, while Villa seek a response to their 3–0 defeat to Barcelona. Catch the game on SS Kickoff (DStv Ch. 207), from the Select package upwards.

4. Inter Milan vs Como - Sunday, 8 November | 6pm

Como have been one of the teams to watch this season, winning four consecutive league games and impressing in Europe.

5. Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona - Sunday, 8 November | 9pm

The weekend saves one of its biggest fixtures for last. League leaders Barcelona face second-placed Atletico Madrid in a top-of-the-table showdown, with Atletico riding a seven-game winning streak in La Liga. Barcelona will look to build on their recent 6–1 league win over Alaves and 3–0 Champions League victory over Aston Villa. The match airs on SS La Liga (DStv Ch. 204, GOtv Ch. 62), open to all DStv packages and GOtv Starter upwards.

What the New Packages Mean for Football Fans

Football weekends are better when you can settle in for the big games, cheer your team on and still have something to look forward to after the final whistle. With the new DStv and GOtv packages, fans can choose how much of the action they want to follow.

For ?6,000 a month, DStv and GOtv Starter offer selected football, including the Premier League Match of the Week and La Liga, giving fans a way to keep up with some of the biggest moments without committing to every fixture.

But if missing a match is not an option, the Sports package, at ?21,000 monthly, brings you every Premier League and UEFA Champions League game, alongside WWE, UFC and the general entertainment channels already on Select. It is a fuller sports experience at ?9,000 less than the former DStv Compact Plus price of ?30,000, giving fans more reason to settle in for the weekend and stay close to the action.

Watch Football Your Way

Whether you follow one league or enjoy the action across Europe, there are different ways to stay connected to the game. Confirm your current DStv or GOtv package before watching. You can also stream on DStv Stream without a dish or decoder. Use the MyDStv and MyGOtv apps to reconnect, upgrade or manage your subscription.
