I think it replaces ifollow and clubs own streaming platforms, but it is only domestic coverage so likely that there will be options for overseas viewers. Not sure how up-to-date this is but it's pretty comprehensive. Check out this post from EFL https://www.efl.com/news/2023/may/efl-and-sky-sports-...
