How to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup without cable

The 2026 FIFA World Cup arrives in North America on Thursday, June 11 and runs through July 19, featuring an expanded 48-team field and a record 104 matches. With the tournament co-hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico, many marquee games fall into standard daytime windows, and you can follow every match live without a traditional cable subscription.

Several direct-to-consumer options cover the full tournament. Fubo consolidates FOX, FS1, Telemundo and Universo under one app, offers a customizable four-game multiview and Unlimited Cloud DVR; FOX One streams all 104 matches in English with interactive stats and multi-angle views; Peacock Premium delivers Telemundo and Universo Spanish-language feeds and an automated “Catch-Up Fast Forward” recap tool; and Sling TV’s short-term passes (1, 3 or 7 days) provide flexible, low-cost access for specific match days.

If you prefer a full cable replacement, YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream include FOX and FS1 in their base plans, with strong multiview and Cloud DVR features.
