How Hartlepool United fans can access DAZN's live National League coverage

Hartlepool United kick off the 2026/27 season with a home game against Barrow on Saturday afternoon.

The new National League season is just days away and it would be safe to say there is a lot of excitement over what lies ahead for Hartlepool United after a hectic summer at Victoria Park.

After confirming the departures of 13 players and former head coach Nicky Featherstone in the weeks after an underwhelming campaign came to a close - and the appointment of Lee Clark as new head coach triggered the start of a remarkable period of activity with a whole host of eye-catching signings being secured in preparation for the former Newcastle United and Sunderland midfielder’s first season in charge.

The loan signing of Chelsea goalkeeper Max Merrick and free transfer addition of former Middlesbrough academy stopper Nathan Fisher took the total number of incomings to 14 last month after the likes of FC Halifax Town striker Will Harris, Leicester City youngster Chris Popov and Morecambe forward Jack Nolan all agreed to join the Pools ranks during the summer.

The new season will get underway on Saturday when a Barrow side relegated from League Two last season are the visitors to Victoria Park before Clark’s players prepare for a visit to Aldershot Town seven days later. Both fixtures will be broadcast live via DAZN - but how can Pools supporters watch their side in action during the new season if they are unable to get to Victoria Park or follow their beloved side on their travels?
