How to Watch Fox Sports Live for Free

You can watch sporting events broadcast by Fox Sports through streaming services like DirecTV Stream, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, and Sling TV. You have four great options for streaming FS1 and FS2 online, three of which offer free trials. Our editors’ best overall pick is DirecTV Stream, but Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, and Sling TV have their own advantages, too. Note that while Sling TV is the only one of the bunch to not offer a free trial, its plans are, in fact, cheaper per month than the other options in this story. Continue reading to find out which plan is best for you to watch Fox Sports on.

Best Overall & EDITOR’S PICK

Watch Fox Sports with DirecTV Stream

– 5-day free trial
– Includes local networks and 90+ channels
– 4 streaming TV packages with Fox Sports
– 1 genre pack with Fox Sports

Try for Free

DirecTV Stream offers a five-day free trial, which means you can watch Fox Sports live and at no cost. The streamer has four streaming TV packages that include Fox Sports and FS1: Entertainment, Choice, Ultimate, and Premier. It only has two that include FS2: Ultimate and Premier. The cheapest plan across the board is Entertainment, which starts at $89.99 per month. If you’re on a tighter budget, check out DirecTV’s genre pack with Fox Sports (Fox local, FS1, and FS2): MySports. While it would normally cost you $64.99 per month, it’s currently down to $44.99 for your first two months. Genre packs give you a curated selection of genre-specific channels—no frills, no fuss, and much more affordable than a traditional streaming package.

We tested every streaming service offering a free trial, and DirecTV came out on top as our editor’s pick. With its free trial and massive selection of channels and local networks, it’s a great choice for watching Fox Sports.

Fubo is another stellar option for streaming Fox Sports because of its free trial for new users and several plan options with Fox Sports (local, FS1, and FS2). Pro, Elite, and Deluxe are the three live TV plans you can choose from, and they start with Pro at $48.99 for the first month, then $73.99 per month after that. Be sure to check out the other two plans, as they have ongoing promotions, too. For those trying to cut costs even more, don’t sleep on Fubo’s sports-specific plans: Fubo Sports (Sports + News) and Fubo Sports (Sports + News Quarterly). The former starts at $45.99 for the first month, then $55.99 per month after that.

Sling TV offers flexible viewing with three monthly plan options that include Fox Sports. The most affordable one is Sling Blue, which costs $45.99 per month and features 43 paid channels centered around news and entertainment. For viewers who want additional coverage, Sling Orange & Blue is the best base plan option and typically costs $69.99 per month, but is on sale for half off ($34.99 per month) right now. You get 50 paid channels and the ability to stream from four devices (as opposed to Sling Blue’s three devices). Now, here’s what distinguishes Sling TV from its counterparts: Sling Select. This curated pack of channels lets you watch Fox News, FS1, NFL Network, and other channels at a much lower price (the lowest on this list!).

Hulu + Live TV offers four plans with Fox Sports. The cheapest plan, Live TV Only, costs $88.99. The next most affordable plan is only $1 more, sitting at $89.99 per month and includes access to Hulu’s live TV content, Hulu (with ads), Disney+ (with ads), and ESPN+ (with ads). After that is a $99.99 per month plan that has Hulu’s live TV content, as well as Hulu’s streaming library without ads, Disney+ without ads, and ESPN+ with ads. For Disney+ without ads, users can subscribe for $94.99 per month and also get Hulu Live TV, Hulu’s streaming library (with ads), and ESPN Select (with ads). If you want more variety (AKA, access to Disney+ and ESPN+, too), Hulu + Live TV is by far your best option.
