How to watch the World Cup on FOX and FS1

You don't need a maze of streaming subscriptions to watch the tournament. Every single match is split across just two linear channels:

Your Local FOX Affiliate

The absolute heavy hitters are broadcast completely free over-the-air. FOX is airing a record 70 matches on its main network television, including all USMNT group stage games, the entire knockout rounds starting on the Fourth of July, and the World Cup Final on July 19. All you need is a simple digital antenna or a live TV streaming package.

FS1 (FOX Sports 1)

The remaining 34 matches (featuring crucial group stage showdowns) air on FS1, which is standard on most cable, satellite, and live TV streaming lineups.

  • Inter Miami CF v Philadelphia UnionGetty Images Sport

    Other major soccer on FOX

    When the World Cup wraps up, FOX Sports remains a massive hub for international tournaments and domestic action:

    • CONMEBOL Copa América Femenina & UEFA Women's EURO
    • CONCACAF Gold Cup & UEFA Nations League
    • Major League Soccer (MLS): While the league is currently on its official World Cup pause, FOX and FS1 are the exclusive linear homes for 34 regular-season matches, select playoff games, and the MLS Cup later this year. It's the perfect TV alternative if you don't subscribe to the MLS Season Pass on Apple TV+.

    If you are looking for European club leagues like the English Premier League, Spain's La Liga, Germany's Bundesliga, or the UEFA Champions League, those actually broadcast on other networks these days (like NBC, ESPN, and CBS/Paramount). FOX keeps its soccer focus primarily on massive national team tournaments and domestic MLS action.


  • What other live sports are available on FOX?

    When the soccer nets are packed away, FOX boasts an elite roster of live sports across your local affiliate and FS1.

    NFL on FOX

    A cornerstone of the network since the mid-90s, FOX is gearing up to cover all the Sunday afternoon gridiron action, anchored by America's Game of the Week and top-tier studio analysis.

    Major League Baseball (MLB) on FOX

    Summer is peak baseball season. While other channels carry a higher volume of weekly games, FOX comes through where it matters most. Catch FOX Saturday Baseball on your local affiliate, national broadcasts on FS1, and exclusive coverage of the MLB All-Star Game and the World Series.

    FOX College Football & Hoops

    FOX is a premier destination for college sports. When autumn and winter roll around, you can catch high-stakes football and basketball matchups across powerhouse conferences, including the Big Ten, Big 12, Mountain West, and Big East.
