WHERE TO WATCH THE MLS ON UK TV?
THE new season of the MLS has kicked off – and you can see EVERY game through Apple TV.
As part of the tech giant’s new ten-year deal with Major League Soccer, every single MLS game is streaming live or available later on-demand through Apple TV’s MLS Season Pass.
To see all the games you can pay £12.99 a month (if you are an Apple+ subscriber already) or £79 for a full season past. These prices are £14.99 a month or £99 if you don’t subscribe to Apple+.
Previously in the UK Viaplay Sports and Sky Sports held the UK TV rights, but now Apple has the worldwide rights it is the only place to see the games. Sky and Viaplay only showed a handful of games each weekend so the new deal is huge for UK fans who will be able to take their pick of all the fixtures.
The MLS section of the Apple TV app and site offers an impressive array of features. As well as the live games, there are video features, interviews, archive and drone tours of the different stadiums.
Some content and live games are expected to be made available for free, but to see the majority of live games you’ll need to subscribe.

As of today, you will be able to subscribe to MLS Season Pass on Apple TV. This enables you to watch any MLS game, live or on demand from anywhere in the world. As well as a choice of English or Spanish commentary, Apple TV also offers local radio commentary.
