Looking to watch a live stream of 2017-18 Real Madrid matches in the United States? There are a couple of different options, even if you don’t have a cable subscription.
In the USA, coverage of Real Madrid will be televised on the beIN Sports channels.
While beIN Sports Connect allows you to watch a live stream of the beIN Sports channels if you sign in to a TV provider, cord cutters who are looking to completely replace cable–or have already gotten rid of it–can watch Real Madrid on beIN Sports via an over-the-top streaming service, which provides access to an entire package of channels for a monthly fee.
With this route, there are two potential options: Fubo TV or Sling TV.
Here’s a complete rundown of what these live streaming services provide, and how to sign up to start watching Real Madrid online:
The Complete beIN Sports Package: Fubo TV
If you’re a die-hard La Liga fan and want to watch as many matches as possible, Fubo TV is undoubtedly going to be your best option. Originally started as an international soccer package, it includes access to beIn Sports 1 through 10, as well as beIn Sports Espanol. This will give you access to all Real Madrid matches, as well as a majority of La Liga fixtures throughout the year.
Not only is Fubo TV the best option for watching beIN Sports, but while Fubo TV is usually $35 per month, it is currently offering a deal that allows users to sign up for $19.99 per month for two months, making it temporarily the cheapest over-the-top streaming service.
Another big advantage here is that you can sign in to the beIn Sports Connect app with your Fubo TV credentials, giving you multiple different ways to watch.
Here’s the rundown of Fubo TV’s bundle:
Total Channels Included: 62 (You can find the complete channel list here)
Price: $19.99 per month for 2 months. $34.99 after that
Extras: Watch on two different devices at once; 10 DVR spots for free; can sign in with Fubo TV credentials on beIn Sports Connect
Free Trial: 7 days
How to Sign Up & Watch:
1. Click here to sign up and launch your free trial. You’ll need to enter your credit card information when signing up, but if you cancel your subscription before the trial ends, you won’t be charged.
2. If you’re on a computer, you can start watching TV right away in your Internet browser without having to download a desktop app. If you’re on a mobile device, download the Fubo app.
