Did you know that Bundesliga—the German professional football league—has higher in-stadium attendance per match than the English Premier League (EPL) and Spanish La Liga? Yes, the German league is quite popular among football fans around the world, and now it’s back in action for the 2021–22 season. Here’s how you can watch Bundesliga on FireStick from anywhere.
It’s 2021. You don’t need to go to a crowded stadium to catch Bundesliga action live. You can easily stream every match on your FireStick. Your location doesn’t matter either. With a simple trick (mentioned later in the article), you can enjoy every Bundesliga match from anywhere in the world.
Before we show you how to stream every Bundesliga match, let’s learn a bit about the well-known football league.
Attention, FireStick Users!
Governments and ISPs constantly monitor your online activity, and accessing copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick could lead to serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend getting the best FireStick VPN to mask your IP address and securely stream your favorites.
I personally use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN available. Not only is it easy to install on any device, it comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus, if you're not 100% satisfied, you can always get a refund. ExpressVPN is currently also offering a whopping 3 extra months free on their annual plan!

What Is Bundesliga?
Started back in 1963, it’s been more than half a century for the German league. Bundesliga is Germany’s primary football competition.
The league has 18 teams competing for the Bundesliga Meisterschale (champion shield) for a tiring nine months. Yes, similar to the EPL and La Liga, Bundesliga also runs from August to next year’s May.
As of now, a total of 56 clubs have participated in the Bundesliga championship. Among them, the Bayern Munich club holds dominance over the league with 30 wins in total.
Bundesliga 2021 Schedule
Bundesliga 2021 is all set to start on August 13, 2021. The season will conclude on May 14, 2022. Most matches are set for weekends, with a few matches scheduled for weekdays.
It will be the 59th season for Bundesliga. Like the last nine seasons, Bayern Munich will once again play to defend the championship title. The team will rely heavily on Robert Lewandowski, the star player who single-handedly took the team to the championship title in 2020–2021. He scored 41 goals last season, breaking the previous record set by Gerd Muller in 1971–72.
Bayern Munich will once again kick off the Bundesliga league with the first match against Borussia Mönchengladbach.
You still have a good amount of time to set up your FireStick to watch every Bundesliga match without cable. Let’s set it up.
How to Watch Bundesliga Matches on FireStick with Official Apps
For years, Fox had the official rights to stream every Bundesliga match in the US, but the situation has changed with the recent ESPN deal with Bundesliga officials. ESPN managed to secure six years of Bundesliga rights in the US. Therefore, every streaming service carrying the ESPN channel will be able to stream all 300+ matches from the US.
Most of these services have official apps available on the Amazon FireStick, meaning you don’t need to jailbreak your FireStick or sideload the apps.
Also, these apps have the legal rights to stream Bundesliga action on the FireStick, so you don’t have to worry about getting into any legal trouble.
The only problem is the services in the list below are only available in the US and a few other countries. If you live outside of the supported countries, you will need to use a VPN on your FireStick to bypass location restrictions.

How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick in the US
I’ll start the list with the official ESPN streaming service called ESPN+. But the good news is that ESPN+ and the live ESPN channel can be accessed through other subscription packages. So let’s talk about all our options.
1. ESPN+
One of the reasons behind ESPN’s aggressive push into sports deals is ESPN+. The company wants to market ESPN+ as the one-stop solution to stream major sports events.
At $5.99 per month (increasing to $6.99 per month on August 13th), not only you can stream Bundesliga, but you can also watch the Olympics, NFL, La Liga, and Premier League as well.
ESPN has made sure ESPN+ is available on all the major platforms out there. You can access the service on iOS, Android, Windows, Apple TV, Android TV, and of course FireStick. Sadly, there is no free trial, so you can’t test out the service before committing to a monthly plan.
By the way, ESPN+ is strictly aimed at sports fans. Don’t expect to watch TV shows or movies on it.

2. Sling TV
Sling TV is another streaming service that can replace your aging cable TV subscription on FireStick. It’s important to note that Sling TV has an Orange plan and a Blue plan that offer different channels, and both are $35 per month. The Orange plan will give you access to Bundesliga via ESPN. You can also get a combined Blue & Orange package with all channels for $50 per month.
Sling TV has 50+ channels total, and the Orange plan has over 30 channels. It should be enough to cover your streaming needs for Bundesliga and beyond.
As an introductory offer, Sling TV is offering a $10 discount for new customers.

3. fuboTV
fuboTV is a complete package that lets you watch Bundesliga matches on FireStick without cable. I say complete because the service has 200+ live TV channels. They cover every category, including sports, news, kids, documentaries, and movies.
It’s more than enough to ditch your cable TV subscription and go all-digital on FireStick. fuboTV is priced at $64.99 per month.
How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick for Free with fuboTV
fuboTV comes with a 7-day free trial, so you can stream Bundesliga matches free for one week. If you like the service, you can subscribe to the paid plan and continue streaming Bundesliga matches.

4. Hulu Live TV
If you don’t like fuboTV, you can try Hulu Live TV. It’s similarly priced at $64.99 per month but may provide more value to you. Allow me to explain how.
Hulu’s ultimate bundle includes both Disney+ and ESPN+. Disney+ is Disney’s flagship streaming platform that carries major Disney shows, Marvel movies, and plenty more.
ESPN+ is there to take care of your sports needs. The bundle is a no-brainer for someone looking to replace their cable subscription at home. Don’t forget you’ll also get Hulu shows and other live TV channels as part of the bundle.
How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick for Free with Hulu
Hulu is offering a 7-day free trial for new customers. Sign up for the trial and you’re all set to enjoy Bundesliga for one week.

5. YouTube TV
Google entered the streaming service market with YouTube TV, making waves in a short period. The service carries 85+ live TV channels from all the major networks in the US. YouTube TV also offers unlimited cloud DVR storage, something that’s missing from most rivals.
You can access YouTube TV through the official YouTube app in the Amazon App Store.
The pricing starts at $54.99 per month for the first three months. After that, the pricing jumps to $64.99 per month.
How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick for Free with YouTube TV
YouTube TV offers a free trial to new users. The duration, however, may vary. Sometimes you can get two weeks of free trial, and sometimes you may have to settle for less.

6. Peacock
NBCUniversal is a well-known name in the US. The company launched the Peacock streaming service in the US, and oh boy, the traction it’s getting! Announced back in April 2020, the service has already managed to attract 22 million users.
Peacock carries all the NBC originals, including TV shows like The Office and plenty of movies. The service also provides ESPN channels, meaning subscribers can comfortably stream every Bundesliga match on FireStick.
There are two subscription plans to choose from, a $4.99-per-month plan that still shows ads or a $9.99-per-month plan that removes most ads and lets you download certain titles.
How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick for Free with Peacock
As a new kid on the block, Peacock is offering a 7-day free trial for its premium plans, giving you a week to watch Bundesliga matches for free.

7. AT&T TV
The US’s second-largest carrier, AT&T, has a streaming service as well. It’s the costliest of the bunch. Yes, at $69.99 per month, it has a pretty heavy price tag, so is it worth getting for Bundesliga? Let’s find out.
AT&T TV supports 65+ TV channels, including some major names like AMC, ESPN, FOX, and ABC. With AT&T TV, you’re looking at a complete cable replacement.
Move to a higher plan at $84.99 per month and you get a 1-year HBO Max subscription as well.

How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick in Canada
Sportsnet has the official rights to stream every Bundesliga game in Canada. Cord-cutters can witness every club chasing after Bayern Munich with the Sportsnet NOW streaming app on FireStick.
Sportsnet NOW
Since 2015, Sportsnet has had the licenses to stream all 300+ Bundesliga matches in Canada. In 2019, the broadcaster finally launched the Sportsnet NOW app for Fire TV.
With the SN NOW+ subscription, you can enjoy six Sportsnet channels and watch live games, interviews, highlights, and analyses. The streams are limited to HD quality though. The service is available on Xbox, PlayStation, Android, iOS, Apple TV, and browsers in addition to Fire TV.
Since the base SN NOW subscription won’t let you watch Bundesliga, you’ll have to pay $9.99 per week or $34.99 per month for SN NOW+.

How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick in the UK
BT Sport has the official rights to air Bundesliga matches in the UK. Conveniently, the streaming giant recently announced an official app for the FireStick platform.
BT TV
BT Sport requires a £25-per-month Monthly Pass to access Bundesliga. To use the service on FireStick, go to the Amazon App Store and download the BT TV app. Then open the app and sign in with your BT TV account credentials. You’ll find Bundesliga in the Sports category within the app.

How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick for Free (Legal Apps)
To lure consumers to try out their streaming services, most companies offer a free trial. You can combine free trials from these services and enjoy free Bundesliga games for the first few weeks.
If you have signed up for a service before, you won’t qualify for a free trial. In that case, you can create a new account using a different email address to become eligible for a free trial.
As I mentioned, to get multiple weeks of Bundesliga for free, you’ll have to sign up for free trials across various services. You’ll have to provide credit card details up front for automatic payments when the free trials end. Don’t forget to cancel the trials before the billing dates—if you forget, you’ll be looking at an eye-popping credit card bill at the end of the month. I highly recommend setting reminders on your smartphone using a scheduling app like Google Calendar or Google Tasks, or Todoist for Apple users.
1. Check the length of the YouTube TV free trial on the YouTube website and on the YouTube app on your devices. In some cases, users signing up from different platforms get more weeks of free trial than they would get from the YouTube TV website. In most cases, you should get at least two weeks of free trial. Once you find the best trial, use it to stream Bundesliga matches and then cancel before the billing date.
2. Peacock TV offers a 7-day free trial. When your YouTube TV trial ends, you can try Peacock TV.
3. Move to fuboTV and get a 7-day free trial there as well. Be careful with fuboTV. If you forget to cancel before the billing date, you are looking at $64.99 added to your credit card statement.
4. The last on the list is Hulu TV. Hulu’s ultimate bundle comes with a 7-day free trial. Enjoy movies, TV shows, and, of course, Bundesliga matches for free, then cancel the subscription before the billing date.
Sum up the free trials listed above and you can easily watch over a month of Bundesliga for free on FireStick without cable.
After using the four trials listed above, you’ll have a good idea of which service is most suitable to your watching habits. You can subscribe to your favorite service and continue to watch Bayern Munich’s dominance.
If you want to continue with free trials, you can always create new email addresses and repeat the trials from those same services. But it’s not ideal to make new email addresses and start new trials for nine months, and what if you forget to cancel a trial before the billing date?
If you are on a tight budget, there are other options for you to watch Bundesliga matches for a low price or even for free. But yes, if it’s free, there’s probably a catch. That stays true here as well. Let’s talk about these options in detail.
Free Apps to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick (Unverified)
Legal Disclaimer: This tutorial is purely educational. FireStickTricks.com doesn’t own, host, operate, resell, or distribute any streaming apps, addons, websites, IPTV or services. The page contains some unverified services, and we are not certain whether they hold legal licenses to distribute the content. FireStickTricks.com does not verify the legality of each app/service in all regions. Do your due diligence if you use any of the unverified apps/services, and stream only content that is available in the public domain. The end-user shall be solely responsible for the media accessed.
The potential of the Amazon FireStick isn’t limited to official apps from the Amazon App Store. Since FireStick runs on the Android-based Fire OS, users can easily sideload third-party apps on the device.
With a jailbroken FireStick, one can install any third-party streaming app on FireStick. But you may wonder, how come these apps are missing from the Amazon App Store in the first place?
The reason is Amazon won’t allow any app carrying unlicensed content in its App Store. These third-party apps may contain a catalog that’s not legal to stream in your country. Using these apps can eventually land you in legal trouble as well.
Your government and local ISP (internet service provider) can see the type of content you are consuming on FireStick, so watching Bundesliga matches through third-party sources may lead to legal trouble. Typically, certain media companies hold the official rights to air events like Bundesliga in your region. In that case, accessing the same content via a third-party app can be illegal.
What can you do then? Well, you can get ExpressVPN on your FireStick that will protect you in case you unintentionally cross the legal line. Using a VPN service like ExpressVPN, you can shield your online identity, bypass location-based restrictions, and enjoy Bundesliga without worrying about any legal hurdles.
How to Install and Use ExpressVPN on FireStick
ExpressVPN lets you reroute your connection to a different IP address. That means regardless of where you live, you can set the US as your location and access all the wonderful services that I listed above. Don’t forget that means the free trials as well.
Set up ExpressVPN using our guide, then move to the following section to watch Bundesliga matches for free or at a low monthly price.
IPTV Services
IPTV services have become a blessing for cord-cutters. With a low monthly subscription, you can enjoy thousands of live TV channels, TV shows, and movies. The content is neatly divided into various categories, such as news, kids, sports, movies, shows, and adults.
There are hundreds of IPTV services out there, and it’s quite difficult to choose one. Honestly, most of them offer an average streaming experience. Don’t worry though. We’ve compiled a list of top IPTV services for FireStick. Use any of the IPTV providers from the list and you are all set to watch Bundesliga on FireStick without cable.
FireStickTricks.com can’t verify the content offered by each service in every region of the world. It’s not always easy to identify legal and illegal content on FireStick. Users are on their own if they go this route.
In addition to thousands of live TV channels, IPTV services offer VPN compatibility, EPGs (electronic program guides), M3U links for IPTV player integration, VOD content, and PPV events.
Best IPTV services for FireStick
Free Sports Streaming Apps
The jailbreaking practice became popular when Amazon started removing third-party apps like Kodi from the Amazon App Store. A jailbroken FireStick allows you to install third-party streaming apps and services on FireStick. With those apps and services, you can easily watch Bundesliga matches for free or for a small price.
Once again, it’s impossible for us to verify the content on these apps, so you need to use your own judgment and act at your own discretion. It’s wise to protect your online identity using ExpressVPN on FireStick.
Among the free sports streaming apps, Kodi is one that’s actually available in the Google Play Store. While the Kodi app itself is verified to be legal, Kodi alone won’t let you watch Bundesliga. You need to get Kodi addons that will enable you to watch Bundesliga on FireStick for free. But the same thing applies to these Kodi addons: We can’t verify whether they’re legal, so be cautious and act responsibly.
There are tons of Kodi addons available on the web. Among them, we’ve identified the best Kodi addons to watch sports events without buffering on FireStick. If you don’t have Kodi yet, here’s how to get it on your Fire TV Stick.
How to Watch Bundesliga on FireStick Using a Browser
This is not our top recommendation to watch Bundesliga on FireStick, but it’s still worth mentioning.
The web is filled with free sports streaming websites that air major sports events, including Bundesliga. You can access them using the Amazon Silk browser on FireStick. You can also opt for Google Chrome on FireStick, but the experience may leave a lot to be desired, as Google’s browser isn’t optimized for a FireStick remote.
If these sports streaming websites offer Bundesliga matches for free, why aren’t they popular options to consume content? First of all, they’re not verified sources. But more relevantly, it’s because they offer a below-average streaming experience.
To help cut costs, these websites use cheap servers to host the content they stream. This results in low-quality videos and frequent buffering. These websites also tend to show obnoxious or malicious ads, and they may have third-party trackers that collect your personal information or steal passwords stored in your browser.
Combine all the negatives above and you can see why I can’t recommend going this route in the first place. Official apps are pricey, but hey, they’ll give you a robust streaming experience without any trouble. Plus, using a VPN service like ExpressVPN, you can access services like ESPN+, YouTube TV, and more from any country in the world.
Highly recommended if streaming with free or low-cost services 👇
