Fans in the UK may have to fork out as much as £1,000 per month to watch the Premier League this year, as the living costs in the UK soar. Out of the 380 EPL games this season, 200 will be broadcasted live.

Sky will show 128 games live while TNT Sports, now branded as BT, will broadcast 52 live games. Moreover, Amazon Prime will broadcast 20 games in the upcoming season. Hence, fans could be forced to take multiple subscriptions before the start of the next season.

They could be forced to shell out a fee between £87 to £100 every month to watch the Premier League live. The cheapest set of subscriptions would cost fans £1000 per year and could rise up to as much as £1200.

For example, the Sky Sports subscription to watch live matches costs £73 per month with an extra £20 for setting it up. Hence, watching their favorite sporting event live could burn a hole in fans' pockets next season.
