beIN will broadcast the first leg of EFL Cup semi-finals on January 10-11 (Australian time) followed by the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations live from Cote D’Ivoire from January 14 to February 12 (Australian time). The second leg of EFL Cup semi-finals will air on January 17-18.
Also, the latest schedule of beIN channels can be found at beIN Sports Connect website, not the main beIN Sports website.
Don’t know how long this page has existed but I finally found a TV guide for BeIN Sports XTRA.
(beIN XTRA | beIN SPORTS)
A few things stated on the website unsure if mentioned before:
XTRA is currently exclusively available through Samsung TV Plus (channel 1619), and we will be launching across several other platforms in 2024.
There will be a minimum of 3 LIVE football matches every single week through the European football season from Serie A, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1.
beIN SPORTS is the home of ATP and WTA Tennis in Australia and you can watch Day 1 from key 1000, 500 and 250 events throughout the year. As well as Match replays and classic matches from the archive.
Went through a quick rundown on the live football this weekend, and where else these games pop up I mentioned BeIN Sports channels 1-3 because subscribers through Fetch / Prime Video only get access to the channels.
Saturday Morning
DUNFERMLINE VS DUNDEE UTD, (Xtra Live, Live on Bein Sports Connect, replayed on Bein Sports 2 Wednesday morning)
Saturday Night/ Sunday Morning
FC UNION VS BREMEN (Xtra Live, Live Bein Sports Connect, No replay on BeIN Sports 1-3, BeIN Sports 2 showing Darmstadt vs Bayern at same time)
Sunday Night / Monday Morning
SALERNITANA VS LECCE (Xtra Live, Live on Bein Sports 2 / Connect)
BREST VS LILLE (BeIN Sports Xtra Live, Live on BeIN Sports 1 / Connect)
3 other replays in the schedule but are from previous weekend so not included
Tuesday
MONTPELLIER VS PSG (Xtra Mini, Live on BeIN Sports 1, Connect)
FREIBURG VS LEVERKUSEN (Xtra Mini, Live on BeIN Sports 3, Connect)
DORTMUND VS FRANKFURT (Xtra Mini, Live on Bein Sports 2, Connect)
Wednesday
ATALANTA VS FIORENTINA (Xtra Full Replay, Live on BeIN Sports Connect, No replays on BeIN Sports 1-3)
UDINESE VS TORINO (Xtra Full Replay, Live on BeIN Sports Connect, No replays on BeIN Sports 1-3)
Thursday no football in the schedule as its mainly tennis and the tv guide currently does not go beyond this
BeIN Sports Xtra has been added to Fetch on channel 161. Fetch has locked the channel from being recorded which isn’t surprising for a free channel. Nice to see the channel become more freely available.
That makes no sense FA Cup fills small holes in the schedule and will be nothing like a 38 week La Liga session which provided Optus with so much content via La Liga TV. This is a huge loss.
Anyhow I hope Bein Sports will also offer LaLiga TV Looking at Bein Sports Connect they have readded in Serie A & Ligue 1 which means they will struggle to cover all leagues on there liner channels with conflicting scheduling and Connect needs a serious upgrade
People that sub to BeIN via Fetch and Prime video ect do not have access to Connect unless this is changing. 3 liner channels is not enough to cover the leagues they have with any depth or consistacy plus 1 channel is nearly always has a alternative sport like tennis, motorsports or rugby on it
Agreed, the poor quality of the App is why I sub via Fetch, which is a 2 edge sword when you miss out on content
