1. The Hemingford Arms, Islington
What better way to kick off match day than in a pub with not one, but two floors of premier live sport entertainment? Bursting with character inside and out, The Hemingford Arms are offering lots and lots of seating arrangements when the big games are on - so you're certain to get the best spot in the house. If the whimsical red-and-grey interior and atmospheric vibe isn’t winning enough, then the kitchen is cooking up a delightful range of Thai dishes to tuck into alongside your cold, crispy pint, too.
Location: 158 Hemingford Rd, London N1 1DF
2. The Whitecross Tap, Old Street
Arguably one of the best craft pubs in Shoreditch, The Whitecross Tap sure knows a thing or two about craft beer (16 on tap, to be precise) - but that's not all they're experts in. They’re also pretty huge sport buffs, showing every single televised match of the world’s best league live on Sky Sports and TNT Sports. Then there’s the cheery, social atmosphere, heated beer garden and sourdough pizzas to make those winning goals all the more sweeter.
Location: 142-146 Whitecross St, London EC1Y 8QJ
3. The Market Porter, Borough
Aside from offering panoramic views of Borough Market and a cosy, outdoor beer garden, the Market Porter also houses a few HD TV screens to watch the Premier League on - which is arguably the next best thing in our books. One for the ale lovers, this traditional, Victorian bar also rotates their guest ales quite frequently, making sure you'll enjoy something new every single match day. Simply book a table with friends, and revel in the atmosphere that'll remind you why you got into sports in the first place.
Location: 9 Stoney St, London SE1 9AA

Boasting two swanky projectors and four large screens all plugged into Sky and BT Sports, there’s no wonder The Globe has a reputation for being west London’s finest sports venue. Nowadays their calendar is packed with Premier League matches - so wherever you choose to settle inside, you’re guaranteed to keep up with every single dribble, tackle and goal in HD. There’s always something to enjoy on the sideline, too - from tasty craft beers to a menu of global burgers and more.

5. Editor's Tap, Blackfriars
Sporting a modern and stylish interior in a very convenient central location, the Editor's Tap lures in all of London’s craft beer lovers with their range of cask ales, premium lagers, and ciders - as well as cocktail enthusiasts and coffee addicts. It might also be the biggest live sport pub yet, with an impressive ten, yes ten, television screens to catch the Premier League action. Sound like a total vibe? Pop down on match days and soak-in in the electric atmosphere of your fellow sports fans.
