Lovebirds we’ve got you covered! Optus Sport has your back this Valentine’s Day weekend.

11 February 2021

Optus Sport has the ladies, and gents covered this Valentine’s Day, with plenty of reminders for football fans to spoil their significant other when Sunday comes around.

Optus Sport has launched their ‘Fall in love with football campaign’, delivering plenty of Valentine’s Day themed puns, graphics and videos across the Optus Sport platform and social channels.

For Optus Sport’s Head of TV & Content, Corin Dimopoulos, it was great opportunity for the Optus Sport team to get creative and poke some fun at what can often be a prickly period for football fans.

“We all know that our one true love is football, but this can often get a lot of fans in trouble this time of the year,” Mr Dimopoulous said.

“We just wanted to remind fans not to forget about their significant other this Valentine’s weekend, which might give them a little extra time watching their favourite teams.”

“It’s also a great opportunity to show our Premier League stars in different light, with both players and coaches donning their best date night outfits for our match and social media graphics and on-air promos,” Mr Dimopoulous added.

Richard Bayliss and the Countdown to Kick-off team are also getting into the spirit of things on Saturday evening. Hosted from a Valentine’s themed studio, the show will feature greats Mark Schwarzer, John Aloisi, Michael Bridges and Scott McDonald decked out in their best ‘rose ceremony’ outfits for the pre-game coverage of Leicester’s loveless meeting with Liverpool.

In addition to their ‘Fall in love with football’ campaign Optus Sport will also be offering football fans a limited time only Mid-Season Football Pass, providing football fans with a 6-Month Subscription for just $68*.

This will allow football fans the opportunity to watch the conclusion of Premier League title race, final rounds of the UEFA Champions League, the entire UEFA Europa League and of course the much-hyped UEFA Euro 2020 campaign.

“We’ve got a huge six months of football coming up, and the Optus Sport Mid-Season Pass gives football fans the option to the watch world’s biggest football competitions, and of course test out the Optus Sport platform,” Mr Dimopoulous added.

Don’t miss all the Valentine’s Day weekend fun on Optus Sport this weekend, live coverage gets underway with the dapper Richard Bayliss and the Countdown to Kick-Off team on Saturday at 10pm AEDT.

To check-out some of Optus Sport’s most fun and creative Valentine’s Day social media posts, head to their social media channels.
