Rugby Union is back to live stream on BT Sport.

Live stream rugby union on BT Sport

Rugby union on BT Sport kicked back off on 14th August, and promised some exhilarating match-ups from the off.

If it’s the Gallagher Premiership you’re after, then you can catch all the action on BT Sport 1, 2 and 3. If you have BT Sport, you can live stream BT Sport 1, 2 and 3 on the mobile app which is available to download on your smartphone and tablet. Along with being able to stream sport on the app and on your TV, you can also do so on the BT Sport web browser at BTSport.com.

BT Sport is the only place the Gallagher Premiership can be watched, along with the highly competitive Heineken Champions Cup and the second-tier European Challenge Cup. The 25th season of the Heineken Champions Cup kicks off on Friday 15th November on BT Sport, and all the games will be available to live stream on BT Sport 1, 2 and 3 as they always are.

Some fixtures might also be available on the BT Sport Extra channels, which come as part of BT Sport, giving viewers an extra seven channels to enjoy (BT Sport Extra 1-7). Some fixtures will also be played in the week to make up for lost time, but all are still available to be live-streamed.

Make sure you don’t miss the next month’s worth of Gallagher Premiership live streams on BT Sport 1, 2 and 3, plus the Extra channels:
