Is the Premier League on ESPN+?

Short answer: No. Here's where EPL actually lives in 2026 — and what soccer ESPN+ does carry.

Direct Answer

No — ESPN+ does not carry the Premier League. In the US, the Premier League is exclusively on Peacock for streaming, and on NBC / USA Network for broadcast TV. ESPN+ has never held Premier League rights and has no plans to acquire them.

Included with cable · Selected matches only

NBC and USA Network air selected Premier League matches including the marquee "Super Sunday" games. Available via cable subscription or live-TV bundles like YouTube TV ($72.99/mo) or fuboTV ($82.99/mo).

Note: for every match including early kickoffs, you still need Peacock — even if you have cable.

What Soccer IS on ESPN+?

ESPN+ ($10.99/mo) is actually a strong soccer streaming service — just not for the Premier League. Here's what it carries:

Bottom line: If your primary goal is watching the Premier League, Peacock wins outright — it's cheaper and has every EPL match. If you want La Liga or Bundesliga alongside other ESPN content, ESPN+ makes more sense. Full ESPN+ vs Peacock comparison →
