Every week games will be streamed live online, while the Grand Final will be broadcast live on Fox Sports.

Fox Sports coverage will be hosted by Brittany Austin, with FIFA YouTubers TheMasterBucks and JarradHD joining in, along with Matildas and Sydney FC star Amy Harrison and eSports analyst Nathan Patrick.

Live streams of all games will be available on Fox Sports E-League page.
