La Liga restart: How to watch Barca and Real Madrid on UK and US TV

La Liga football returns in June after a number of months without action due to the lockdown measures imposed in Spain in response to the global coronavirus pandemic.

Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and more will all take to the pitch again to complete the 2019-20 campaign, following the successful behind-closed-doors model pioneered by the Bundesliga in Germany.

We've been deprived of seeing the likes of Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos work their magic for too long, so, like many, you might be wondering how to tune in and when the games will be played. So look no further - Goal brings you everything you need to know about how to watch Spanish football's big restart.

In the UK, La Liga matches will be available to watch and stream on La Liga TV, while Premier Sports and FreeSports also have rights for some games.

La Liga TV games will be free to watch in the UK for the month of June if you are a Sky customer.

According to La Liga president Javier Tebas, the aim is to have games played every day, but only matchday 28 and matchday 29 have had their dates confirmed so far. Fixtures will kick-off at different times. Games will be played at 12 noon BST (7am ET), 4pm BST (11am ET) 6:30pm BST (1:30pm ET), 9pm BST (4pm ET).
