Slovak Sport.TV2 secures Czech Republic platform

The Liberty Global media company's European satellite-television arm, UPC DTH, has agreed a deal for the Slovak Sport.TV2 pay-television channel deal to be carried on its freeSAT Plus service in Czech Republic.

The channel offers live coverage of the English Premier League, the top division of football in the country.

Last summer, Slovak Sport.TV2, which launched in July 2012, acquired the rights in Slovakia and Czech Republic for the league in a three-year deal, from 2013-14 to 2015-16.
