Is Huddersfield Town v AFC Wimbledon on TV? Channel and streaming details for League One fixture

The key TV and streaming details ahead of Huddersfield Town’s clash with AFC Wimbledon

Huddersfield Town are set to kick off their League One campaign on home turf against AFC Wimbledon.

The Terriers have seen back-to-back promotion pushes run out of steam, with frustration only intensifying the desire to reach the Championship.

Huddersfield have placed Martin Drury in charge for the 2026/27 campaign, putting faith in the man who ended last season as co-interim boss alongside Jon Stead.

This summer has not been quite as hectic for Huddersfield on the transfer front but there have still been some intriguing signings. Many of the new faces could make their league debuts for the Terriers in the campaign opener.

It has been a tough few years for Huddersfield fans, but a promising result on the opening day of the 2026/27 season would certainly lift the mood.

Here are the key TV and streaming details as Huddersfield prepare to take on AFC Wimbledon.

Why is the 3pm blackout not in place?

The blackout can only be enforced when half of the matches in a country’s top two tiers are played at the same. With only six Championship matches kicking off at 3pm and the Premier League yet to return, the blackout is not in effect.

The blackout will return and be in place on August 22, when Premier League football makes its return.

How can I stream Huddersfield Town v AFC Wimbledon?

Supporters can stream the fixture via the official Sky Sports app or on NOW TV with a valid subscription. There will also be live audio commentary provided by BBC Radio Leeds.
