How to watch the Premier League 2024-25 season without cable
Premiere League games will be broadcast on a variety of channels including USA, NBC, Universo and Telemundo. Some matches will also stream exclusively on Peacock.
Watch the Premier League on Peacock
Peacock Premium subscriptions cost $7.99 per month or $13.99 per month for Premium Plus. Peacock’s Premium Plus plan comes with everything in the Premium plan, but with no ads, a live stream of your local NBC channel and the ability to download and stream eligible content offline.
Peacock is a must-have streaming service for soccer fans to watch the English Premier League. Out of the 380 games, 175 of them are streaming exclusively on Peacock this season, with NBC match simulcasts also available for select events. The only downside to Peacock is that the games airing on USA and CNBC will be available the following day.
If you want to watch those games live, consider a subscription to FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV or Sling TV.

FuboTV is another great option for watching Premier League games online. The sports-focused live TV streaming service has access to all the channels broadcasting live matches thus far — including NBC, USA, Telemundo and Universo. As of now, these are the only stations scheduled to air matches outside of Peacock, although the entire broadcast schedule has not yet been released.
Fubo costs $79.99 per month, and currently, the platform is offering a seven-day free trial.

One affordable way to catch live Premier League matches without cable is on Sling TV. With Sling TV’s Blue package, you’ll have access to more than 50 channels, including NBC and USA. You can also add on Sling Latino for $10 per month to get access to Universo.
Right now, there is a Sling TV deal offering 50% off your first month — bringing the Blue package down from $45 to just $22.50. Sling TV also comes with 50 hours of free cloud-based DVR recording space, perfect for recording all the season’s top matchups if you can’t watch them live.
Watch the Premier League on Hulu + Live TV
Hulu + Live TV will give you access to over 95 channels including NBC, USA and Telemundo for $77 per month. You can also consider the Espanol add-on to get access to NBC Universo for $5 more per month.
