If you’re interested only in Ligue 1, then a subscription to Fanatiz is going to be the best option for you in terms of cost. However, the number of other leagues can stream through it is a little more limited, so it’s worth recognising what exactly you want to watch.
For on the go play and watching at home, though, Fanatiz is, as is quite apt given the brand’s name, fantastic. It’s just what the additional subscription fee will give you with the likes of FuboTV and SlingTV that could persuade you elsewhere.
