The first ever Premier league football match to stream on Twitch will air tonight, with Crystal Palace versus Burnley<\/a> at 7:30pm BST. The game — which will be streamed on Twitch by Amazon UK<\/a> — marks a significant evolution for the platform, which until now has been primarily designed for video games and esports. We’ve seen football on Twitch before<\/a>, but not in a competition the size of the Premier league.<\/p>\n The move also demonstrates a concerted effort by Amazon to get its football coverage in front of a wider audience. The company is already streaming some Premier League matches (including Crystal Palace versus Burnley) for free on Prime<\/a>, presumably in a bid position itself as a legitimate destination for sports — airing games on Twitch gives would-be Prime subscribers more flexibility. At this stage, however, Amazon’s games will only be streaming on Twitch for UK users, although if it proves successful we could see a similar model roll out to sports in the US, too. Follow the PrimeVideo <\/a>channel on Twitch to watch along.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n Tags:<\/b> Rachel England<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"See Campaign: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/amazon-uk-will-show-its-free-premier-league-matches-on-twitch-101051169.html<\/a>
