It is in a week that Ligue 1 will resume its rights with, to launch the season, a shock between Stade Rennais and Olympique de Marseille (Friday August 15 at 8:45 p.m.). This 2025-2026 exercise will be marked by an important change: a new broadcaster enters the scene.

To Internet users who were wondering about being able to view the chain simultaneously in two different places, the platform has clarified things. “There is no concept of a home for the management of the two screens”she said. Which could completely change the situation.
If two users share for example only one and the same subscription to 14.99 euros per month with commitment, the cost of Ligue 1+ will only be 7.50 euros per month each! An amount much lower than 39.99 euros offered by the previous broadcaster at its launch …
