Huddersfield Town host Wigan Athletic at the Accu Stadium, formerly known as the John Smith’s Stadium, on Saturday, 24 October 2026, with their League One Gameweek 13 fixture kicking off at 12.30pm BST. Sky Sports+ is showing the game live, with the Sky Sports app and NOW offering ways to follow the action online.
How to Watch Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic Live Stream in the UK
Sky Sports+ is broadcasting Huddersfield Town against Wigan Athletic live in the UK, with kick-off at 12.30pm BST. Existing Sky Sports subscribers can select the fixture through Sky Sports+, while the Sky Sports app carries the additional live streams.
Those without a Sky television package can watch through NOW with a Sports Day or Month Membership. Both memberships include Sky Sports+ events, so you don’t need a long-term Sky TV contract to see Saturday’s match.
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.
Sky has scheduled the fixture for 12.30pm, although a separate pre-match programme start time has not been published. Opening the event shortly before kick-off is sensible.
TV Info: What Channel Is Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic On?
Sky Sports+ is the confirmed UK TV channel. On Sky Q, Sky Glass and Sky Stream, the Sky Sports+ channel is found at 404. Choose the Huddersfield fixture from the additional live-event menu.
The match is not Saturday lunchtime’s main Sky Sports Football selection. That slot goes to Charlton Athletic against Norwich City, while Huddersfield and Wigan are among several EFL games being shown simultaneously through Sky Sports+.
Sky Sports subscribers can watch the extra EFL streams without purchasing a separate sports add-on. A suitable Sky Sports package is required.
Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic Streaming Apps and Device Guide
Open the Sky Sports app, sign in with your Sky iD and find Huddersfield against Wigan in the live football section. The app is the important distinction for this fixture: Sky Go carries the Sky Sports+ channel, but additional simultaneous EFL streams are found through the Sky Sports app.
NOW viewers can select the match from the football section using a Sports Day or Month Membership. The cheaper NOW Mobile Membership does not include Sky Sports+ streams.
On a compatible TV, the NOW app offers a direct route. Sky Q, Sky Glass and Sky Stream customers can instead use the Sky Sports+ television menu.
Can You Cast Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic to a TV?
If your chosen app supports Chromecast or AirPlay on your device, open the Huddersfield stream and select your television through the casting control.
Both devices should be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. On Sky’s supported television boxes, selecting the fixture through Sky Sports+ is usually simpler than casting from a phone.
Watching Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic While Travelling
If you’re abroad, check which broadcaster is showing League One where you are. EFL fixtures shown on Sky Sports can also be carried by international partners, but your UK Sky or NOW membership doesn’t guarantee the same viewing options overseas.
Some countries also receive EFL matches through club streaming services, depending on local arrangements.
