Hi, Steve. It will show most of them. With Compact, you’ll be able to watch all the EPL matches from the top teams in England. Champions League matches from the Group Stage to the Final will also be aired on this package.
Liverpool can win this trophy
Please will championsl level final show of compact?
Yes, Barima. Check the TV guide info for channel 203.
Shall I be able to watch UCL final on compact tomorrow?
Yes, Rodger. The match will be aired on SS PL.
How much can I pay to watch tonight’s semifinal uing compact? I want to watch Liverpool v Villarreal.
I shall be overseas for the UEFA Champions League Final on Saturday 28th May, and will not be able to watch the match live. Do you know if DSTV will repeat the match after it is finished, and (if so)at what time and on what channel it will be shown? Do you know if, having a DSTV Premium contract, I shall be able to pick it up on my laptop or iPhone, whilst overseas (in England)? Thank you. Guy.
Hi, with a Premium contract you’ll surely be able to watch the final and repeats from any part of the world. Simply download the DStv Now app for the Apple app store, and log in with your details to start streaming.
As for the DStv channels showing the UCL final and repeats, there’s no way of telling for now. There are too many TV programmes DStv needs to schedule before then, as such, they can’t start assigning channels for the final one month before the time.
But, say, about a week or few days to the final, we’ll know which channels will air the event and the ones that will show the repeat then we’ll update this page with the details. Simply come back here when you need information and we’ll have them ready for you.
I can’t use DStv Now on my Linux device, with all checks verified, why?
Have you tried updating the app? Most times simply updating your DStv app can work miracles.
I am very happy with dstv company. I’m enjoying.
Thanks.
Pls, can DSTV compact show tonight match?
Yes Lawrence, they will.
