Is Discovery+ the best way to watch the Europa League?
TNT Sports and Discovery Plus have teamed up before for the UEFA Finals and there were no major complaints about the streaming quality, while the coverage features former European football superstars such as Gareth Bale. Discovery says you can “stream select events in 4K HDR and Dolby Atmos (with a compatible device)” but don’t expect that from the free Europa League stream.
As of 2025, the platform says it has “over 122 million subscribers“ globally, which certainly sounds worthy of this year’s Europa League Final.
Of course, for the best streaming experience, Discovery says “you need a minimum download speed of 5Mbps and at least 20 Mbps for 4K content.”
