India TV’s VETO to stream SAFF Championship 2026 in India

India TV’s OTT service VETO will provide live coverage in India of the 15th South Asian Football Federation (SAFF) Championship, which begins in Dhaka on 5th November 2026. The matches can be accessed through the VETO app and the platform’s website.

The tournament is the 15th edition of the SAFF Championship and will feature six teams split into two groups in Dhaka from 5th November 2026 onwards. India have been drawn in Group B alongside Maldives and Pakistan, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the semi-finals.

India’s SAFF schedule overlaps with New Zealand friendlies set for 12 and 15 November 2026 in Auckland and Christchurch. Reports indicate the All India Football Federation (AIFF) will send Khalid Jamil’s senior team to New Zealand while an Indian U23 squad led by Naushad Moosa will represent India at the SAFF Championship.

VETO is an OTT platform available as both an app and a website and, according to reports, the SAFF Championship will be streamed free of charge without monthly subscriptions or paywalls as part of the platform’s VETO Sports Carnival initiative. The mobile application is listed on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store for smartphones and tablets.

Pre-tournament assessments in the available reporting name India among the favourites to top Group B and to win the SAFF Championship, but note that India will most likely be missing senior-team players. Bangladesh are identified as favourites to top Group A and are expected to have a major home advantage; the last time India met Bangladesh, the Bangla Tigers defeated Khalid Jamil’s side in AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers.

For continued coverage, Khel Now directs readers to follow its Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube accounts, download the Khel Now Android or iOS app, and join its WhatsApp and Telegram communities for updates.

The Blue Tigers will open their SAFF Championship campaign against Pakistan on 5th November 2026 at 15:30 IST, a match that will be available to viewers in India via the VETO app.
