Brazil FIFA World Cup 2026 free streams

To watch Brazil compete in the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free in the United States, your best bet is to take advantage of Fubo's free trial during their key matches. Since the English-language rights are held by FOX and FS1, you need a service that carries both to ensure you don't miss a minute.

You can also catch the World Cup completely free by signing up for a 5-day DirecTV Stream free trial, which gives you instant live access to every tournament match. The platform's lineup includes FOX and FS1 for full English-language coverage, alongside Telemundo and Universo for Spanish-language broadcasts - just remember to cancel before the five days are up to avoid being billed!

Further details on what each plan gets you can be found below, but the most important thing to note all three offer access to FOX and FS1 which is all you need for FIFA World Cup 2026 coverage.

It is important to note, however, that Sling only carries local FOX affiliates in a handful of major metropolitan areas (like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, and Dallas). If you live outside of these major cities, you will not get your local FOX channel through Sling at all - meaning you'll miss every single high-profile match broadcast on the main network unless you hook up an over-the-air antenna.
