The Bundesliga suits UK viewers better than most European leagues, because its main Saturday slot lands mid-afternoon here rather than late at night. That makes it an easy addition to a British football weekend.
August to May
Saturday 14:30 and 17:30 UK time, Sunday afternoons, occasional Friday nights.
Worth knowing: The 14:30 Saturday slot sits just before the English 15:00 kick-offs, so both compete for bandwidth in the same window.

Germany is one hour ahead, so the traditional 15:30 Saturday kick-off is 14:30 UK time — earlier than English fixtures, which many viewers find convenient.
