Al Ettifaq vs Al Fateh TV coverage and live streaming options

Jordan Henderson-led Al Ettifaq will take on seventh-placed Al Fateh in the Saudi Pro League. This could be a tight encounter with both teams looking to break into the top four.

Al Ettifaq are unbeaten in their last 4 games and gaining momentum at the right time. Al Fateh also lost just one in their previous 5 games, but they can look a bit streaky. The game will kick-off at 7 pm UK time and will be refereed by Abdulsamad Bakri.

USA

For fans in the United States, ESPN is the go-to streaming option, be it via the ESPN site on a larger screen or the ESPN app for mobile. Unfortunately for the US fans, there are no TV broadcasters for this game. The kick-off time in Washington DC is 11 am so it is an early start.

Nigeria

Shahid is the international broadcaster for the Saudi Premier League and will be covering the game in multiple African countries, including Nigeria. A Shahid subscription costs 8.99 pounds/month. The African country is in the same time zone as the UK, so the game will start at 7 pm local time.

Kenya

None of the big African channels like SuperSport or DStv are broadcasting this clash so Kenyan fans will also have to rely on Shahid to watch the likes of Henderson and Dembele in action. The kick-off time in Kenya is 9 pm, two hours later than Nigeria and Britain.

India

Due to the massive presence of Ronaldo fans in the Indian subcontinent, the Saudi Premier League gained popularity in India much quicker than everywhere else. This is why Sony Sports Network broadcasts the SPL in India dedicatedly. They will be broadcasting the Al Ettifaq vs Al Fateh game, which will start at 11:30 PM India time, as well.
