How to Watch Arsenal F.C. Live Without Cable in 2022-23

Written by John O'Connor

Last updated on

Arsenal FC is a leading English Premier League (“EPL”) soccer club that contends for EPL championships year in and year out. Arsenal has a loyal following in the United States, with soccer fans in major cities, like NYC, meeting up early at bars to watch games. If 7:30 AM is a little early to head to a bar to watch Arsenal, you can live stream Arsenal games from the comfort of home on most major streaming devices, including Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, iPhone, and more.

NBC has the TV rights to air EPL games in the U.S. and spreads Premier League games around between its various channels and streaming services. As a result, we recommend combining a Peacock Premium Plus plan with either a DIRECTV STREAM or YouTube TV account for complete coverage of Arsenal’s season. In addition to their EPL channel lineups, DIRECTV STREAM and YouTube TV are excellent options for Arsenal fans because both apps offer unlimited DVR for recording EPL games that often begin while most of us in the U.S. are asleep.

How to watch today’s Arsenal game

In the easy to use table below, we list the Arsenal TV schedule, as well as the live TV streaming services that carry each game. Arsenal games that stream exclusively on Peacock won’t be listed in this table.

The most important channels for Arsenal fans

As one of the Premier League’s most popular teams, Arsenal games are featured on NBC’s national EPL broadcasts with regularity. NBC’s nationally televised EPL games are simulcast on Peacock, NBC’s streaming service.

Arsenal’s matches also air on USA Network, and Spanish language broadcasts are carried on Telemundo and Universo. If you are a diehard Arsenal fan, it’s also a good idea to have a Peacock subscription to pick up the handful of games that stream exclusively on the app.

Can I watch Arsenal on Peacock?

Can I watch Arsenal on DIRECTV STREAM?

Yes, you can watch most Arsenal games on DIRECTV STREAM from the U.S. market.

DIRECTV STREAM carries USA Network, and local NBC affiliates nationwide, including WNBC Channel 4 New York, and KNBC Channel 4 Los Angeles.

Despite the games being on insanely early on the west coast, there is an active meetup group for Arsenal fans in LA, called the LA Gooners.

DIRECTV STREAM has recently increased it DVR storage considerably. There is a cap on the number of episodes of a show you can save at 30, so it’s not truly an unlimited DVR (as it’s been marketed), however, the enhanced DVR storage is important for Arsenal fans in the U.S. who don’t want to get up for the early morning kickoffs. If you live on the west coast and want to watch Arsenal’s season, but don’t want to get up with the LA Gooners at 4:30 AM, going with a live TV streaming service that has a generous DVR offering is key.

Can I watch Arsenal on YouTube TV?

Yes, you can watch most Arsenal games from the U.S. Market on YouTube TV.

YouTube TV offers select EPL games in 4K with the app’s 4K Plus add-on. In addition to its 4K offering, one of the biggest benefits with YouTube TV for Arsenal fans is the platform’s unlimited DVR through platform’s “Library” feature.

Because EPL fans in the U.S. are in a much different timezone than the UK, having the ability to save games to DVR is especially important if you want to follow along with the Premier League all season.

Can I watch Arsenal on Hulu + Live TV?

Yes, you can watch most Arsenal games on Hulu + Live TV. Unlike YouTube TV and DIRECTV STREAM, Hulu + Live TV’s base package only comes with limited DVR in the base package, which is a major drawback for EPL fans in the U.S., especially on the West Coast.

However, Hulu does offer some unique advantages for soccer fans beyond just the Premier League.

With the platform’s ESPN+ bundle, sports fans get coverage of several professional soccer leagues, including MLS, FA Cup, EFL Cup, and Liga MX games.

Can I watch Arsenal on fuboTV?

Yes, you can watch EPL games, including Arsenal matches, on fuboTV.

fuboTV also offers select EPL games in 4K for its Elite plan subscribers, but make sure you have a device that can support 4K streaming before signing up.

fuboTV’s base plan comes with a generous 1,000 hours of DVR storage, and the app’s convenient Team Recording feature allows Arsenal fans to automatically record every game of the season, rather than having to remember to set the DVR before each game.

Watching Arsenal F.C. FAQs

Can I watch Arsenal games on NBC Sports Network?

No, NBC Universal closed down NBC Sports Network (NBCSN) in 2021. Many have speculated NBCSN was shuttered to consolidate sports programming around the Peacock platform.

Can I watch Arsenal games on ESPN+?

No, you can’t watch Arsenal FC games on ESPN+. NBC has the exclusive rights to carry EPL games in the United States. None of ESPN’s properties, including ESPN+, will carry Premier League games.

Can I watch Arsenal on Sling TV?

I hesitate to recommend Sling TV to Arsenal fans, and EPL fans in general, because Sling TV only carries NBC in select markets, and doesn’t carry Telemundo at all. However, most of the cities with a large EPL following, like Chicago, NYC, and LA do get NBC with Sling Blue. When you factor in NBC’s simulcast of its nationally televised EPL games on Peacock, Sling TV isn’t a terrible option for watching English language broadcasts of Arsenal games, but it’s far from the best.
