How to watch USL Championship in USA

The United Soccer League (USL) matches will be broadcast across CBS platforms under a multiyear rights agreement extending through the 2027 season. This includes the airing of 100 matches annually on the CBS Television Network, Paramount+, CBS Sports Network, and the CBS Sports Golazo Network. The arrangement specifies that the USL Championship final will be aired on the CBS Television Network and simulcast on Paramount+, with over 20 matches scheduled for CBS Sports Network and at least 75 slated for broadcast on the Golazo Network.

ESPN is an official U.S. national broadcaster of the USL Championship, the second-tier professional men’s soccer league in the United States. The sports network secured the rights to this division through the 2026 season under a multi-year renewal announced in early 2024. The agreement is part of a shared distribution model with CBS Sports, which serves as the league’s other national broadcast partner through 2027.

The scope of ESPN's coverage includes a significant number of games, including regular-season matches, with U.S. fans able to watch live USL Championship fixtures on ESPN’s linear networks (notably ESPN2). Meanwhile, viewers can stream the USL Championship live on ESPN Select, then known as ESPN+.

To stream live USL Championship matches on ESPN, fans must subscribe to ESPN Select, which is available as a standalone offer and on Disney+. However, to stream ESPN Select and its USL Championship coverage on the Disney+ streaming service, fans may need to purchase a bundled package for both services.

Once subscribed, soccer fans in the U.S. can stream the USL Championship on Internet-connected devices supported by Disney+, the ESPN app, or ESPN.com. This includes smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, streaming devices, and gaming consoles. Please check the official ESPN or Disney+ platforms for the latest information on whether your desired device is supported.

Additionally, U.S. viewers can also watch the competition via third-party cable, satellite, IPTV, and streaming television providers that carry ESPN2 or any other linear network that broadcasts the league in the U.S. Some of the major U.S. television operators that have carried ESPN networks include Hulu + Live TV, DIRECTV, Fubo TV, Spectrum TV, and Verizon FiOS, though availability is subject to change.
