Where to watch Premier League in USA

Every Premier League match in the 2026-27 season airs in the United States across three NBCUniversal platforms: NBC, USA Network and Peacock. There is no single subscription that carries all 380 matches on its own streaming app, so the right setup depends on how many matches you want live. Peacock is the cheapest streaming route and carries roughly half of all matches exclusively, plus simulcasts of the games shown on NBC. The rest air on USA Network and NBC, which need a cable package or a live TV streaming service.

The season runs from 21 August 2026 to 30 May 2027, a week later than usual because of the 2026 World Cup. All 380 matches are shown live in the US across the three NBCUniversal outlets, and NBCUniversal holds the rights through the 2027-28 season, so this setup is stable for the rest of this season and the next one. Guides disagree slightly on current Peacock pricing — see the season guides from TechRadar and FourFourTwo — so confirm the price on Peacock's own site before subscribing rather than trusting any single figure quoted here.

Peacock: the cheapest way in

Peacock is NBC's streaming service and the simplest entry point for Premier League fans in the US. It streams roughly half of all matches each round exclusively, and it also simulcasts the matches that air on NBC, so a Peacock subscription alone covers a large share of every matchweek. It also carries replays of games shown on NBC, which matters for fans who cannot watch live in the morning.

One change catches many fans out this season. Since NBCUniversal spun its cable channels into Versant, USA Network games no longer stream live on Peacock. If the match you want is assigned to USA Network, Peacock alone will not show it live; you either need a live TV login that carries USA Network, or you wait for the next-day replay. Before every matchweek, check which platform your match is assigned to rather than assuming Peacock has it.

NBC and USA Network: the TV channels

NBC is the flagship broadcast channel and hosts only the marquee fixtures, usually the biggest weekend games, which also air free over the air in local markets. USA Network carries roughly the other half of the fixtures each weekend and on midweek matchdays. Together with Peacock, the three outlets cover the full 380-match schedule.

Neither NBC nor USA Network has its own standalone streaming app. Both channels are available through live TV streaming services: YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV and DirecTV Stream all carry them, and Sling Blue carries USA Network and NBC in select markets. Several of these services offer free trials for new subscribers, which is a legitimate way to test whether the channel lineup covers your club before committing. You can follow every fixture and kick-off time on our today's matches page.

Watching in Spanish in the USA

Spanish-language coverage exists for selected matches: Telemundo and Universo show a selection of Premier League games in Spanish. The selection is smaller than the English-language offering, so Spanish-speaking fans who want every match of a particular club should check the weekly Telemundo and Universo schedules in advance, and use Peacock or a live TV service for the matches that are not carried in Spanish. For the Spanish-language guides to other competitions, see our where to watch the Premier League guide and our English-language how to watch the Champions League in the USA.

Kick-off times in the USA

Premier League kick-off times follow a familiar weekly pattern, but the clock change matters this week. Europe and the UK moved their clocks back on Sunday 25 October, while the United States does not fall back until Sunday 1 November. During this gap week, a 12:30 UK kick-off is 08:30 Eastern, not 07:30. From 1 November, once the US is on Eastern Standard Time, the usual conversions apply: a 12:30 UK kick-off is 07:30 Eastern and 04:30 Pacific; a 17:30 UK kick-off is 12:30 Eastern and 09:30 Pacific; a Sunday 16:30 UK kick-off is 11:30 Eastern and 08:30 Pacific.

The Saturday 15:00 UK slot deserves a note. In the UK, those matches are not shown live on television because of the Saturday 3pm blackout, which exists to protect attendances lower down the pyramid. In the US there is no such blackout: the matches air live on the NBCUniversal platforms as usual. If you read a UK guide that says a 15:00 match is not televised, that restriction does not apply to the American broadcast.

Premier League in the UK, Canada and Australia

Outside the US, the rights picture is completely different, which is why guides written for another country will mislead you. In the UK, Sky Sports shows at least 215 matches live each season and TNT Sports shows a further 52, usually Saturday lunchtime kick-offs and a couple of midweek matchdays, with highlights on BBC One's Match of the Day. In Canada, Fubo holds exclusive live rights to all 380 matches under a multi-year deal. In Australia, Stan Sport streams every match of the season. If you travel, your US subscriptions generally do not travel with you: Peacock and the live TV services are geo-restricted, so check each provider's travel rules before you go.

What to check before you subscribe

First, decide whether you need every match live or just your club's matches plus the big games. Peacock alone is enough for many fans, and it is the cheapest route. If you need every match live, pair Peacock with a live TV streaming service that carries NBC and USA Network, and confirm both channels are in the package you pick, since lineups vary by market. Second, check the Spanish-language schedule if you watch in Spanish, because Telemundo and Universo carry only selected matches. Third, confirm the current price and whether a free trial applies on the provider's own site, since prices quoted in guides change during the season. And if you support a particular club, the Arsenal team page is a good example of how club coverage is organised on this site.
