"Three years in a row" focuses on all three years equally.
"For the third year in a row" focuses on the last (the third) year.
They sometimes can mean the same thing, but sometimes they are slightly different.
This means that "for the third year in a row", you can be at the beginning of the third year, and most of it hasn't happened yet.
"For the third year in a row, I will be studying English." This means you still have to finish the third year.
"For three years I studied English." This means you have finished three years of studying English.
"I will be studying English for three years." This means that you will study English for a total of three years. You may be on your first, second, or third year of study, or, you might not have started yet.
Hope this helps! I can try to explain more if you are still confused.

I don't think there's much difference, I'd use them interchangeably.

They are pretty interchangeable.
Example:
"The Yankees have won the World Series for the third year in a row!"
"The Yankees won the World Series three years in a row!"
It really just depends on the context for which one you decide to use. "third year" focuses more on that last year, while "three years" focuses on all of the years.
