How to Catch Every EFL Match This Easter
If you're an EFL fan, Easter 2025 serves up a treat. For the first time, every single game from the Championship, League One, and League Two over the Bank Holiday weekend will be available to watch live in the UK. Whether you’re at home, on the move, or have cut the cable altogether, the broadcast options have you completely covered.
The EFL and Sky Sports are joining forces to make sure no supporter misses out. On Good Friday (18 April) and Easter Monday (21 April), every match will be broadcast either on existing Sky Sports channels or through the brand-new Sky Sports+ platform. There’s no extra fee if you’re already a Sky Sports subscriber—everything is included, no sneaky charges.
If you don’t have Sky, things are still pretty simple. The NOW streaming service gives you instant access to all live EFL games without locking you into a long contract. Just grab a pass and you’re set for the weekend. It’s a quick option if you only want to watch during the Easter fixtures, no commitment necessary.
For fans who prefer streaming on the go, the Sky Sports app remains a handy companion. Subscribers can fire up the app on their phone or tablet and jump straight into any match—no waiting, no fuss.

Know Before You Stream
While the coverage is comprehensive, not every EFL cup game—like certain Carabao Cup fixtures—will get the same treatment, so it’s smart to double-check local listings or check official EFL announcements to pinpoint exactly which matches are live and where. For league action throughout Easter, it's blanket coverage—fans in the UK can finally follow their club, whichever division, without running into broadcast blackouts or regional restrictions.
The move by Sky Sports and the EFL means the days of desperately searching dodgy streams or missing out because of broadcaster geo-blocks are numbered. It’s a big step forward for fans outside the Premier League heartlands too. Whether you support a side fighting for promotion or battling to stay up, you can see every moment live, hassle-free.
Keep an eye out for Sky’s game selection announcements closer to Easter—especially for standout ties in the Championship or local derbies that always bring extra spice. And if you’re planning a family gathering or heading away for the long weekend, you don’t have to miss the big clash: streaming really does mean you can watch from anywhere, as long as you’ve got a signal and a screen.
