Super League rugby restarts today after an extended hiatus, with the first two rugby league matches out of the the gate set to be Huddersfield vs Leeds and St Helens vs Catalans Dragons. Yes, the 2020 Super League season is back, so follow our guide as we explain where to find a rugby league live stream you can trust and watch all the Super League action online from anywhere right now.
St Helens vs Catalans Dragons is cheduled for a 4.15pm BST start today (Sunday, August 2), followed by Huddersfield vs Leeds at 6.30pm. Coverage begins on Sky Sports Arena at 3.30pm - and if you don't have Sky, you can easily watch with a great value Now TV Sky Sports Pass (opens in new tab).
If you forget how things stood back in March when play was suspended, you'll notice a change in the table as the Betfred Super League restarts today - and more specifically, a missing team.
That's because Super League newcomers Toronto Wolfpack have withdrawn from the rugby league competition due to financial concerns, leaving just 11 teams to finish out the season. There's no real fallout from this, though, as sides that had already beaten the Canadian team will simply have the result negated and points deducted.
Additionally, no team will be relegated from the Super League this season. But perhaps most significantly, scrums have been outlawed for the remainder of the 2020 rugby Super League campaign - meaning all restarts will be of the tap variety. It does beg the question of when rugby stops being rugby, but given the current circumstances, it's probably excusable for now.
The opening Super League restart fixtures see third-placed Huddersfield take on fourth-placed Leeds in the late game, which will take place after eighth-placed St Helens do battle with Catalans Dragons in fifth. You can watch all the action live, no matter where you are in the world, by following our Super League live stream guide below.
