The Premier League has criticised legal advice which could allow pubs and clubs to screen its matches at any time, reports the BBC.
The European Union's advocate general has said that a Portsmouth publican was entitled to show top-flight games decoded from a Greek satellite signal.
But the Premier League said such a policy would "damage the interests of broadcasters and viewers of Premier League football across the EU".
Sky Sports and ESPN hold the rights to live Premier League matches in the UK.
That means pubs, clubs and other public venues wishing to screen games have to pay a monthly subscription.
