How to Watch Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim Live Stream in the UK
TNT Sports 1 will show Crystal Palace against Hoffenheim live in the UK on Thursday 5 November 2026. The match is also being carried on TNT Sports Ultimate and streamed through HBO Max for customers with an eligible TNT Sports subscription.
The programme begins at 5pm GMT, 45 minutes before the 5:45pm kick-off at Selhurst Park. Palace’s fourth Europa League fixture of the campaign takes place in the early Thursday slot, alongside Bournemouth’s visit to Sparta Prague.
Some online bookmakers may add live streaming for eligible active customers closer to kick-off, so check your provider before the match begins. This option is strictly 18+. Geo-location restrictions and live-streaming terms apply.

TV Info: What Channel Is Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim On?
TNT Sports 1 is the main UK television channel, with TNT Sports Ultimate also showing the fixture. The latter is another viewing option for customers whose package includes the channel and compatible picture-quality support.
TNT Sports is carried through eligible Sky, Virgin Media, BT and EE television packages. Viewers should select the Palace fixture rather than the simultaneous Sparta Prague against Bournemouth broadcast on TNT Sports 2.
For watching without a traditional TV channel, HBO Max carries TNT Sports coverage through its qualifying sports plans. A standard entertainment-only subscription may not include live Europa League matches.
Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim Streaming Apps and Device Guide
Open HBO Max on your phone or tablet, or sign in through its web player on a computer. Find the live Europa League fixtures and select Crystal Palace against Hoffenheim.
If you already receive TNT Sports through a television company, check which streaming options come with your package. Eligible customers may also be able to watch their subscribed sports channels through their TV provider’s app.
For a compatible smart TV, opening HBO Max directly is often more convenient than transferring the picture from a phone. Select the live match rather than an earlier football programme or highlights recording.
Can You Cast Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim to a TV?
If your streaming app and television support AirPlay or Chromecast, start the match on your phone and select the TV from the casting menu. Both devices need to share the same Wi-Fi network.
Alternatively, watch TNT Sports 1 through your television package or use HBO Max on a compatible smart TV. Casting support can vary between apps and television models.
Watching Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim While Travelling
If you’re abroad, check which broadcaster shows the Europa League where you are. A UK TNT Sports subscription doesn’t automatically carry the same viewing arrangements in every country.
Supporters travelling from Germany should remember that the Selhurst Park kick-off is at 6:45pm Central European Time, one hour later than the UK.
Live Audio, Highlights and Match Replay
TNT Sports has scheduled its Europa League and Conference League highlights programme for 10:30pm GMT on Thursday, giving viewers a later opportunity to catch the evening’s principal moments.
Crystal Palace’s club channels also carry match updates, reports and post-match reaction. The club’s pre-Hoffenheim press conference with Pierre Sage is a separate recording, rather than a live match stream.
A full-match replay should not be confused with short highlights. Viewers wanting the entire game after full-time should check their TV recording facility or the replay section of HBO Max; no exact match-replay release time has been established.

Since joining Palace in July 2026, Sage has recorded five wins, two draws and seven defeats in 14 matches. Ilzer’s Hoffenheim record stands at 30 victories from 77 games.
