How to Watch the LAFC in 2026
Every LAFC match streams on Apple TV — $12.99/month or $99/year, with no blackouts. About 34 MLS games a season also air nationally on FOX, FS1, and Fox Deportes. MLS Season Pass is no longer a separate purchase: as of 2026, every match is included with a standard Apple TV subscription.
Apple TV — every match
All LAFC games — home and away, the regular season, the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs, and Leagues Cup — stream live on Apple TV with no blackouts or regional restrictions. A subscription is $12.99/month or $99/year and also includes Apple's shows and movies, Friday Night Baseball, and Formula 1. Broadcasts carry English and Spanish commentary, and Apple TV adds full-match replays, a live whip-around show, and a multiview option on Apple TV 4K.
On national TV: FOX & FS1
Around 34 MLS matches air on national television each season — roughly 15 on FOX and 19 on FS1 — with Spanish-language coverage on Fox Deportes. Whether a given LAFC match falls in one of those national windows varies week to week; everything not on FOX or FS1 is on Apple TV. You can stream the FOX and FS1 games through live-TV services like DirecTV, Fubo, Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, or YouTube TV.
Free ways to watch
A few ways to catch the LAFC without paying for a full subscription:
- Apple TV 7-day free trial — new subscribers stream every match free for a week, then $12.99/month.
- FOX over the air — the ~15 games a season on the FOX broadcast network are free with a TV antenna, no subscription needed.
- Live-TV free trials — DirecTV, Fubo, Sling, and YouTube TV offer free trials that cover the FS1 national games.
- Highlights — full-match replays on Apple TV, plus free highlights on MLS's and the club's official YouTube and social channels.
