It has been confirmed that the Chelsea UEFA Conference League playoffs are not expected to be available for viewing on national television in diferent parts of the world.
Why is Chelsea vs Servette not on DSTV?
Reports indicate that DSTV does not own the braodcast rights for the Europa League and Europa Conference League. Only the Playoffs for the Champions League are broadcasted on the Pay TV service provider.
As a result, clubs participating in the Playoff matches have the opportunity to sell the broadcasting rights independently.
Chelsea, however, has opted to stream both legs of their Playoff matches on their official website and app. Fans can access the stream for £4.99.
If Chelsea eventually qualifies for the next round of the competition it is expected that all matches be available for viewing on DSTV and other TV service providers within and outside Africa. Chelsea also made the confirmation on their official website about the broadcast rights for the fixture making it open to all fans at a specific fee.
Enzo Maresca is set to guide Chelsea back into European competition after a year-long absence. With renewed ambitions, the team will be eager to make a deep run in the tournament, especially if they advance to the newly introduced league stage.
Under Maresca’s leadership, Chelsea will be aiming to reestablish themselves on the European stage and compete for significant honors. The club’s focus will be on progressing through the rounds and showcasing their strength against Europe’s top teams.
