How to Get Fox Soccer Plus — Every Option, Every Price

Fox Soccer Plus has very limited distribution compared to most sports channels. As of current availability, only two streaming services carry it, and both require an add-on purchase on top of their base plan. Here is exactly what each path costs.

Fox Soccer Plus generates very specific searches from soccer fans trying to figure out why they can’t find it anywhere, why it costs extra, and whether it’s worth the money for specific leagues. All of that covered here.

  Is Fox Soccer Plus free? No — Fox Soccer Plus is not free on any platform · It always requires a paid subscription · The 5-day Fubo trial is the only way to access it temporarily at no cost

  There is no free version of Fox Soccer Plus. It is a paid add-on or standalone cable channel on every platform that carries it. The only practical way to watch it without paying is through a streaming service free trial — and among the services that carry Fox Soccer Plus, only Fubo currently offers a free trial (5 days). Starting a Fubo trial, adding the International Sports Plus add-on, and cancelling before the trial ends would give you roughly 5 days of Fox Soccer Plus access at no charge. Keep in mind: the add-on starts charging immediately if you don’t cancel before the Fubo trial period ends. There is no standalone “Fox Soccer Plus free trial” offered directly by the channel itself.

  How do I watch Fox Soccer Plus? Two streaming paths: YouTube TV base plan + Sports Plus add-on ($10.99/mo extra) · OR Fubo base plan + International Sports Plus add-on ($6.99/mo extra) · Both stream on phones, tablets, smart TVs, Roku, Fire Stick, Apple TV · DirecTV satellite: $14.99/mo add-on

  Once you subscribe to a plan that includes Fox Soccer Plus through YouTube TV or Fubo, watching is straightforward: the Fox Soccer Plus channel appears in your live guide or channel browser, and you can watch on any device the service supports — which includes Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung and LG smart TVs, iPhones, Android phones, tablets, and laptops. On YouTube TV, search for “Fox Soccer Plus” in the guide after activating Sports Plus. On Fubo, it appears in the international sports category after you activate the add-on. Live games can also be recorded to unlimited cloud DVR storage on both platforms, which is useful for matches that air during work hours or odd time zones. The Fox One app on its own does not stream Fox Soccer Plus — if you log into Fox One with cable credentials, Fox Soccer Plus will not appear.

  Is Fox Soccer Plus on YouTube TV? Yes — but only as part of the Sports Plus add-on at $10.99/month on top of your YouTube TV base plan · Fox Soccer Plus is not included in the base YouTube TV plan at any price tier

  YouTube TV carries Fox Soccer Plus exclusively through its “NFL RedZone with Sports Plus” add-on bundle. Despite the name leading with NFL RedZone, the Sports Plus package includes 17 total sports channels — and Fox Soccer Plus is one of them. Other channels in the bundle alongside Fox Soccer Plus: NFL RedZone (live scoring plays every NFL Sunday), beIN Sports (Champions League highlights, international soccer), Tennis Channel, FanDuel TV, Fight Network, MAVTV, Outside TV, Overtime, Stadium, and several others. The add-on costs $10.99/month on top of any YouTube TV base plan, bringing the total starting from the cheapest YouTube TV plan (Sports Plan at $64.99/month) to $75.98/month. This is actually a reasonably strong value if you watch NFL RedZone and international soccer — those two alone justify the $10.99 add-on for many fans.

  Is Fox Soccer Plus on Fox One? No — Fox Soccer Plus is not included in the Fox One app at any plan level · Fox One carries FS1, FS2, Fox News, Fox Business, Fox Weather, Big Ten Network, and local Fox affiliates — not Fox Soccer Plus

  This is one of the most common misunderstandings about Fox Soccer Plus. The Fox One app, launched in August 2025, packages all of Fox Corporation’s main television properties into a single $19.99/month subscription — but Fox Soccer Plus is notably absent from that lineup. The reasons are partly historical: Fox Soccer Plus has different distribution agreements than the main Fox channels, and partly practical: its content is niche enough that it wasn’t bundled into the flagship streaming product. This means that someone who subscribes to Fox One specifically to watch Fox Soccer Plus will be disappointed — the channel simply does not appear in the app. For the World Cup specifically, Fox One is excellent: it carries all 104 matches on Fox and FS1. But for UEFA Nations League, Serie B, or Australian football on Fox Soccer Plus, a separate YouTube TV or Fubo subscription with the appropriate add-on is the only streaming path.

  Fox Soccer Plus free trial — how do I actually get one? Fubo free trial (5 days) is the primary route · Start Fubo → add International Sports Plus add-on → watch Fox Soccer Plus · Cancel before day 5 to pay nothing · YouTube TV trials are offered intermittently — check tv.youtube.com for current availability

  The practical guide to watching Fox Soccer Plus for free during a trial: go to fubo.tv, select a plan (the base Pro plan), and click Start Free Trial. Enter your email and payment information. The free 5-day trial clock starts immediately. After signing up, go to your Fubo account settings and find Add-Ons. Add the International Sports Plus package — this is where Fox Soccer Plus lives within Fubo. Note that the add-on itself may begin billing immediately or be included in the trial period depending on Fubo’s current terms, so check the fine print at sign-up. Set a calendar reminder for the day before the trial ends and cancel through the Fubo app or website if you don’t want to continue. YouTube TV periodically runs free trials as well, but availability changes — check tv.youtube.com directly. There is no standalone Fox Soccer Plus free trial offered independent of a streaming service.

  Fox Soccer Plus schedule — what leagues and matches are currently on it? Current lineup: UEFA Nations League · CONCACAF Champions Cup · French Cup · Italian Serie B · Liga MX (overflow) · Canadian Premier League · FIFA U-17 and U-20 World Cups · National Rugby League (Australia) · Super League Rugby · Australian Football League (AFL) · Premier Rugby Sevens

  Fox Soccer Plus operates roughly 1,000 hours of programming annually across soccer and rugby. Soccer makes up the majority: UEFA Nations League brings elite European international fixtures that don’t qualify for the main FS1 slot; CONCACAF Champions Cup covers North American club competition; the French Cup, Italian Serie B, and Liga MX overflow fill weekends with club football from Europe and Mexico. The rugby programming — particularly National Rugby League and AFL — is meaningful for the Australian and New Zealand diaspora in the U.S. who can’t easily find coverage elsewhere. The specific schedule for any given week is available on foxsports.com by searching for the Fox Soccer Plus channel listing, or through your streaming service’s guide once subscribed. Live game times vary significantly due to international time zones — many matches air in overnight or early morning hours Eastern time.

  Fox Soccer Plus live — is it actually live or mostly replays? Live matches air in real time — no tape delay · Time zone offset is the main issue (most European and Australian matches air overnight or early morning ET) · Cloud DVR on Fubo and YouTube TV records everything automatically

  Fox Soccer Plus is a live sports channel — matches air in real time when they happen, which means time zone offsets can be significant. A Serie B match from Italy kicks off at 2:45 PM local time, which is 8:45 AM Eastern — watchable for U.S. morning viewers. An Australian football match from Sydney at 7:30 PM local time is 5:30 AM Eastern — mostly watched via DVR rather than live. The cloud DVR feature on both YouTube TV (unlimited storage, 9-month retention) and Fubo (unlimited) automatically records matches from Fox Soccer Plus when set up, which means you can watch any match at a normal hour regardless of when it aired. This is the most practical approach for most U.S. soccer fans — record everything and watch after work or on weekends. Recording a channel’s full output in advance through the DVR guide is possible on both platforms: select Fox Soccer Plus in the channel guide and choose “Record all.”

  How do I watch Fox Sports internationally from outside the U.S.? YouTube TV, Fubo, and Fox One are geo-restricted to U.S. IP addresses · Traveling abroad: a VPN set to a U.S. location restores access to your subscription · Moving abroad permanently: the subscriptions stop working without a U.S. IP address — a VPN is the practical workaround

  All U.S. streaming services that carry Fox Soccer Plus — YouTube TV, Fubo, and DirecTV streaming — use IP address detection to enforce geographic restrictions. If you travel outside the United States, these services will either block access entirely or show a geo-restriction error. The practical solution used by most American expats and frequent travelers: a VPN (Virtual Private Network) app that makes your device’s internet traffic appear to originate from a U.S. location. When connected to a U.S. VPN server, streaming services treat you as a U.S. viewer and allow full access. Reputable VPN services used specifically for streaming include ExpressVPN, NordVPN, and Surfshark — they typically cost $3–$8/month on annual plans. This is entirely legal to use for your own subscription; you are not accessing content you haven’t paid for. The quality of the stream depends on the VPN server speed, so choose a service with fast U.S. servers.
