Quick answer
In the US, the Premier League is on NBC, USA Network, Telemundo and Peacock, the Champions League is on Paramount+ and CBS, La Liga is on ESPN, MLS is included with an Apple TV subscription from 2026, and Liga MX is spread club by club across TelevisaUnivision and other partners.

Soccer in America after the 2026 World Cup
The 2026 World Cup was the first with 48 teams and 104 matches, and the first hosted by three countries. US host cities were Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and New Jersey, Philadelphia, the San Francisco Bay Area and Seattle, with Toronto and Vancouver in Canada and Guadalajara, Mexico City and Monterrey in Mexico.
US audiences were the biggest ever. The final, which Spain won 1-0 against Argentina after extra time on July 19 at MetLife Stadium, averaged 38.9 million viewers on Fox and 23.9 million on Telemundo and Peacock.
Many new fans picked a club during the tournament and now want to follow the leagues week to week. That is where the rights get messy.

What TarakTV offers soccer fans
TarakTV puts many of the soccer channels people look for into one app: US channels like NBC, USA Network, CBS, ESPN, Fox and FS1, Spanish-language channels like Telemundo, Univision and TUDN, and international sports channels such as beIN Sports, Sky Sports and channels from Mexico and South America.
That matters most for fans who follow a Mexican club and a European club, or who want commentary in their own language. You can often find the same match on an English channel and a Spanish channel and pick the one you like.
TarakTV is not licensed by or partnered with any league, and line-ups change. We do not promise a specific match will be on. Use the free 24-hour trial on a match day to check your teams before you buy a plan.
Kickoff times from Europe and Latin America
Premier League Saturday games usually kick off at 7:30 a.m., 10 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Eastern, which is 4:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. on the West Coast. Champions League games on Tuesday and Wednesday usually start at 3 p.m. Eastern, in the middle of the work day.
This is where catch-up helps. On channels that support it, you can go back in the program guide and watch the match from the start when you get home. Liga MX games, on the other hand, are often in the evening in US time zones, which suits fans out West.
The guide shows times in your device's time zone, so set the clock on your TV or stick correctly.
Devices and internet for match day
Soccer is a wide-angle sport with a small ball, so picture quality matters. Plan on about 15 Mbps for HD and about 25 Mbps for 4K per TV.
TarakTV works on Fire TV Sticks, Android-based Smart TVs, phones and tablets through the Cast4K player app, and on TVIP and Yoka TV boxes, which we ship to the US and Canada. For derbies, finals and national team games, plug the TV or box into the router with an Ethernet cable.
- Save your club's usual channels as favourites.
- Keep a backup channel in another language in case one feed drops.
- Restart the device before big matches.
- Message WhatsApp support with the channel name if something is down.
Costs compared
Following two or three leagues officially means Peacock, Paramount+, ESPN and Apple TV at minimum, plus a Spanish-language service if you follow Liga MX. Each is priced separately and prices rise often.
TarakTV is one price: 15 dollars a month, 130 dollars a year, 220 dollars for three years or 300 dollars for five years. Many families also use it for news and shows from home, which our country guides cover.
