Internet streaming services are quickly overtaking cable, and as the market gets more crowded, it can be tricky to know which is best for live coverage of the sports you love.
Fubo (formerly fuboTV) is tailor-made for soccer fans, hosting an impressive array of sports networks, including CBS, NBC and USA. So whatever your sporting tastes, fubo has got you covered.
Take a look at GOAL's ultmate guide to the streaming service and what it has to offer.
What is fubo (formerly fuboTV)?
As an internet streaming service, fubo scores early in the game with anyone wanting to cable-cut. It offers between 223 and 294 channels and offers two core subscription packages: Pro and Elite. If that’s not enough, there are hundreds of events available in 4K, so you’ll be able to argue with the ref on good authority.
There is also a Latino subscription package, which offers live sports coverage in Spanish. This package has significantly reduced channels when compared to the other two, but has a significantly reduced monthly fee to match.

Watching live sports on fubo
General sports coverage

Of the three packages available, the Elite subscription is the best package for fans wanting to watch a variety of events across different sports.
There’s NBA TV for basketball fans, while MLB, NHL, and NFL Network cover the big baseball, hockey, and football games. Golf Channel covers competitions like the PGA tour and Capital One’s ‘The Match’, while Tennis Channel has the US and Australian Open, Wimbledon and Roland Garros under wraps.
Pretty much all your ESPN channels are included with this package, which is great for most sports fans, including motorsport, as ESPN and ESPN 2 provides consistent coverage of the F1 season. Motorsport fans can also watch all 24 hours of Le Mans via MotorTrend, as well as live interviews and footage from the 2025 NASCAR Championship.
Soccer coverage

Broadcasting rights for the UEFA Champions League, WSL and NWSL are all currently held by CBS, which is included in Pro and Elite subscriptions. Many English Premier League games can be viewed over USA and NBC channels, while ESPN shows some La Liga matches and certain German Bundesliga games.
However, for full coverage of the Bundesliga and EFL games, an ESPN+ subscription would be needed, which isn’t included with fubo.
Another big absence in the channel lineup is Turner Sports Networks. This is especially relevant to soccer fans, as US Soccer have done a broadcasting deal with Turner Sports. So, if national soccer competitions and friendlies are your thing, fubo may not be your best option for live coverage.
Offers and promotions
- Fubo is currently running a free five-day trial for each of its packages.
- Currently, there's $20 off Pro and Elite for the first month of subscription, with $5 off Latino.

Fubo pros & cons
Pros
- International soccer coverage - For those wanting to keep up with international soccer leagues and events, fubo has all the channels you need.
- Variety - Fubo isn’t just great for soccer fans, it offers an impressive range of sports channels as part of its Elite package, so there’s something for everyone.
- Internet Streaming - You get cable cut, which means no separate DVR storage equipment or installations, as well as streaming on the go.
- Cloud DVR storage - With unlimited hours of cloud DVR storage, there’s no need to worry about “storage full”. Re-watch your favorite moments or save the game for later when your schedule clashes. Recordings will delete after nine months.
- “Unlimited” streaming on your home network - No one’s TV time needs to clash; you can watch on up to 10 screens on your home network.
Cons
- No Turner Sports Channels - Fubo is the only service in the premium TV streaming price range that is unable to offer TNT, which impacts the national soccer coverage that’s available.
- Limited Regional Sports Networks - Compared to other services in the same price range, like DIRECTV, the number of RSNs available with the monthly subscription isn’t as broad.
Fubo compared to other live sports streaming services
Because of FuboTV’s subscription pricing, it would be considered a premium service. Its big competitors for channel variety in a similar price range are the likes of Direct TV, HuluTV and YouTube TV. For comparison, please see the table below:
