St Helens vs Wigan kicks off 2019 Betfred Super League season, live on Sky Sports

Written by on 06/11/2018

Forget the fireworks, rugby league is back with a bang on Sky Sports.

2019 is packed with nearly 200 live games from all areas of the sport including the Betfred Super League, Championship, Challenge Cup and NRL.

The Betfred Super League season kicks off on Thursday January 31, with reigning champions Wigan playing early-season favourites St Helens in the first ever traditional opening night derby.

Then on Friday night, it’s the Hull derby, before we head over to Warrington to see the 2018 Grand Finalists take on the most successful club of the Super League era, Leeds Rhinos, at home on February 2.

Sky Sports will show three Super League matches per week for the first five rounds, with newly-promoted London Broncos at home to Castleford in round three.

By round four, every club will have featured on Sky Sports, and by round seven each will have been visited at home by our cameras.

The season will no doubt throw up some big sporting moments in the Dacia Magic Weekend, State of Origin and the World Club Challenge. And it all culminates in the Grand Finals from both the Super League and NRL in October.

The Super League is on Sky Sports Action and Sky Sports Arena. You can also see every try with Day, Week, Mobile and Month Passes on streaming service NOW TV.
