BBC News said:The High Court is considering whether a pub should be allowed to show live English Premier League football matches from foreign broadcasts.
Karen Murphy of the Red, White and Blue pub in Southsea, Hampshire is appealing a Crown Court verdict that she could not show the games.
It is a test case for many publicans who have tried to use alternatives to BSkyB and Setanta's services.
The FA Premier League is fighting the case to protect exclusivity deals.
Criminal record risk
Ms Murphy was showing live matches through a Greek broadcaster called Nova, which charged her about £800 a year - compared with the £6,000 that she would have had to pay Sky for the service.
