Paramount+ Adds Selected Liga MX Matches to 2026 US Streaming Schedule
Paramount+ has added selected Liga MX matches to its 2026 football schedule, with English-language commentary regularly available as the league’s US broadcast picture becomes increasingly fragmented.
Key takeaways
- Selected Liga MX fixtures are now available on Paramount+ during the 2026 campaign.
- ViX Premium has exclusive streaming rights for numerous games not shown on conventional television.
- Telemundo, Universo and Peacock are key platforms for Chivas and Pumas UNAM home fixtures.
- Fox Sports carries regular home matches involving Monterrey, Tijuana and Santos Laguna.
- Univision and TUDN remain central to coverage of Club América, Cruz Azul and Tigres UANL.
Club-by-club rights shape US coverage
Liga MX television rights are sold by individual home clubs rather than through one league-wide agreement. That arrangement means supporters following the Apertura, Clausura and Liguilla may need more than one service to see every match involving their team.
Univision and TUDN hold a major share of the league’s highest-profile inventory, including matches involving América, Cruz Azul and Tigres. Many of those broadcasts are in Spanish, with UniMás and FOX Deportes also part of the wider US Spanish-language football offering.
NBCUniversal platforms are regularly used for Chivas and Pumas home games. Telemundo and Universo broadcasts are carried live on Peacock, making the streaming service an important option for followers of both clubs.
Fox Sports remains the usual destination when Monterrey, Tijuana or Santos Laguna play at home. Fubo carries Fox Sports coverage of those sides, but its current channel line-up does not include Telemundo or Universo.
Digital exclusives increase in 2026
ViX Premium has become a major part of the Liga MX viewing plan after securing digital exclusivity for a substantial number of fixtures unavailable on linear channels. The service includes many América and Cruz Azul home matches, as well as games scheduled in midweek or alongside simultaneous final-round kick-offs.
DirecTV Stream offers one of the broadest combined channel selections for viewers seeking Univision, TUDN and Telemundo in the same package. Its available line-ups also include UniMás and FOX Deportes, giving subscribers a route to many of the league’s leading rivalries.
Paramount+’s arrival adds another outlet for supporters already using the platform for Champions League football. Its selected Liga MX broadcasts provide an English-commentary alternative for some matches, but the club-by-club rights model means no single platform has complete coverage of the competition.
