FriendlyFinder
Tell the app which two clubs you want to watch (even a preseason friendly between Athletic Club and a lower-tier side like Leioa) and your country, and it tells you the legal broadcaster, kickoff time in your timezone, and a reliable stream link.

Searches for friendlies like 'Leioa vs Athletic' spike in summer precisely because fans can't find where the match is even being shown.
Google surfaces multiple 'Where to watch Leioa vs Athletic Club' pages (LiveSoccerTV, ScoreAxis, Scorebat) and the match is already being tracked in real time, confirming recurring search demand for obscure preseason friendlies.Where to watch Leioa vs Athletic Club: TV Channel & Live Stream ↗Leioa vs Athletic Bilbao Livescore and Live Video ↗
The exact use case is already served by LiveSoccerTV (established app on Google Play with regional broadcaster listings), plus StreamFC, LiveSportTV, ScoreAxis and Scorebat — a crowded field, not whitespace.Live Soccer TV: Scores & Stats - Apps on Google Play ↗StreamFC — Sports matchday & TV guide ↗
Existing competitors (LiveSoccerTV, LiveSportTV) are free/ad-supported and the niche-friendly audience is notoriously price-sensitive; no evidence of strong paid willingness to pay for a broadcaster-listing layer over free alternatives.Live Soccer TV - Streaming and TV Schedule, Live Football Scores ↗Best Live Football TV & Streaming Apps 2026 — footyapps ↗
Core need is durable (fans always want to know where to watch) but preseason/friendly demand is seasonal and broadcast-rights data churns constantly, requiring continuous maintenance.
LiveSoccerTV has already proven the build is possible, but aggregating per-country legal rights for every obscure friendly requires scraping/licensing broadcaster data and timezone mapping — non-trivial to do at scale.
