Tv, Dazn brings Serie A back in the clear with Milan-Napoli

The last time was in 1996, with a match played on 13 April between Juventus and Sampdoria at the then Stadio Delle Alpi. After almost thirty years, a Serie A match returns in free-to-air. On Tuesday 29 October, at 20.45, the Serie A Enilive match between Fonseca's AC Milan and Conte's Napoli will be broadcast for the first time free-to-air and exclusively on Dazn.

It is an opportunity that is part of the 'try and buy' package of TV rights acquired by the live sports streaming platform for the broadcast of the Serie A football championship until 2029 and that allows it to broadcast a limited number of matches (up to 5 out of 380 matches) free-to-air, per season.

Broadcasting a big match free-to-air for the first time in almost 30 years marks a historic turning point, and even more so if we consider that it will be streamed live exclusively on Dazn without the need to subscribe. It is an extraordinary opportunity that we strongly wanted and that will allow us to bring the emotions of great Italian football to an even greater number of fans,' commented Stefano Azzi, CEO of Dazn in Italy.

The possibility will be granted up to a maximum of 2 million users. And there will be procedures to follow. From desktop/mobile it will be necessary to go to Dazn.com/home, select Milan-Napoli on the home page and enter one's e-mail in order to watch the match, including all pre-match and post-match entertainment. As for Smart TV access, from 28 October, you will need to access the Dazn app from the TV screen, click on "Watch Free", scan the QR code with your smartphone and enter your email address to watch the match, including all pre and post-match entertainment.

The Dazn line-up lined up to narrate the event, says the Access Industries-owned company, "will see Pierluigi Pardo and Andrea Stramaccioni on commentary, along with Diletta Leotta in connection from the pitch from 19:45 for pre-match analysis and interviews at the end of the match. In addition, DAZN Serie A Show will be exceptionally switched on in the post-match with Giorgia Rossi on the presenter together with the coach of the Italian national basketball team, Gianmarco Pozzecco, as super in-studio guests, Massimo Ambrosini and Ciro Ferrara".
