BERLIN (dpa-AFX) - Sports broadcaster DAZN is offering the newly acquired Bundesliga conference coverage in its cheaper of its two tariffs. The format, which is popular with soccer fans and features Saturday afternoon matches, is included in the Super Sports package and costs €19.99 per month with an annual subscription. The monthly subscription, which can be canceled at any time, costs €24.99.

Those who also want to watch the Bundesliga and Champions League matches live on Sundays need the Unlimited package for €34.99 per month with an annual subscription or €44.99 with a monthly subscription. DAZN is keeping its prices stable compared to last season after coming under fire in previous years for massive price increases.

Conference broadcasting on television was invented around 25 years ago by Sky's predecessor, Premiere. The German Football League (DFL) developed a rights package from this, which DAZN secured at auction in December. Sky now only shows smaller conferences on 2nd Bundesliga match days. /mrs/DP/mis
