How to watch Premier League games in Week 5
- TV channels: USA Network | NBC
- Live stream: Fubo, Peacock
For the 2024-25 season, the Premier League coverage in the US is centered around three main options: USA Network, NBC, and Peacock. USA Network typically broadcasts four to five games each matchday, available on most cable and satellite packages. NBC, an over-the-air channel, airs one key match each weekend, often at 12:30 p.m. ET on Saturdays, which you can access through a TV package or even with an antenna.
Peacock, NBC’s streaming service, plays a crucial role in Premier League coverage. It offers a dedicated 24/7 Premier League channel with exclusive interviews, daily reports, and Goal Rush — a whiparound show that highlights key moments as they unfold during simultaneous matches. With about five games exclusive to Peacock each week, it’s a must-have for fans.
For cord-cutters, Fubo is an excellent option, streaming both USA Network and NBC. It also offers 4K streaming for a superior viewing experience and includes other channels that may feature matches on Championship Sunday, like CNBC. Fubo’s free trial is a great way to sample all of the action.
The best combo for Premier League fans in the US? Pair Peacock with Fubo. This duo gives you access to every match of the season, ensuring you never miss a moment. With Peacock’s exclusive coverage and Fubo’s streaming of key channels, it’s the ultimate setup for football fanatics across the States.
