The Bundesliga clubs are beginning to prepare for the new season, and German FTA channels will be teeming with pre-season friendlies. Watch out for Bayern v Barca, Basel v Dortmund, and Hamburg v Inter.
Celtic are playing the inaugural match at Union Berlin’s refurbished stadium, Manchester City are taking part in the Audi Cup at Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena, and Fulham are travelling to Bremen. Southampton, West Ham, West Brom, and Leeds will also play against German clubs, but TV coverage for these games hasn’t been announced yet.
Here’s the provisional list of live matches on German stations at 19.2° East. Feel free to post free-to-air matches in other languages and on other satellite positions as well.

Some updates concerning live matches:
10/08 19:00 Sport1 Real Madrid v Inter (friendly)
13/08 19:15 Sport1 Fortuna Köln v KFC Uerdingen (Regionalliga West, Week 3) now confirmed
09/09 19:15 Sport1 Hessen Kassel v Waldhof Mannheim (Regionalliga Südwest, Week 8)
I think it was an alignment issue as it was fine yesterday (when the weather was better here)
I watched bits of last night's final - nice to see Pep speaking German on RTL...
I note this friday 9 August a Bundesleague 1 game FTA on ARD, will this be the norm for the upcoming season?
Thanks
no, this will not be the norm.
Putting the promotion/relegation play-offs aside, ARD only has two live matches from the Bundesliga each season: the season opener (always a home game of the reigning champion) and the first match after the winter break. The latter will be shown on Friday, 24th January, and it might or might not be Gladbach v Bayern (e.g. Hamburg v Schalke or Dortmund v Augsburg could be chosen instead).
Karl much obliged i thought i was on to a good thing for friday nights!
And of course there's FTA Bundesliga highlights:
Sat 17:30 ARD
Sat 22:00 ZDF (times may vary)
Sun 08:30 Sport1
Sun 20:45 WDR (and other regional ARD stations)
Sun 22:00 Sport1
The beauty with BT sport is that i don't have to be a sky subscriber as i use my sky box as a FTA receiver and BT in Ireland is part of the Setanta Sports Pack which includes Setanta Ireland , Premier Sports, BT Sport 1 and 2 and ESPN for €19.99 a month!
And BT Sport / ESPN might have much more live Bundesliga than ESPN had before. There are four live games this weekend but I guess we'll have to wait and see if they keep it up when Serie A has started as well.
I was only half paying attention at one point during the Greuther Furth Match last night, but I am sure that a banner appeared on screen regarding the Koln - Uerdingen match tonight and the commentator said that 3rd Div matches are going to be shown weekly on Sport 1 on Tuesdays. Can anyone confirm?
