How to watch the 2026 World Cup with Sling TV: Channels, schedule, and streaming deals

The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June 11 through July 19 and every match of the tournament will be televised on either FOX or FS1. If you’re looking for a low-cost cable alternative so you can tune in to every match without overpaying, Sling is one of our favorite streaming services that lets you choose a plan with the channels you want most, so you don’t pay for what you won’t watch. With a Sling Select plan, you can get both Fox and FS1 and pay as little as $19.99/month, far less than you’d pay for most other streamers or even a basic cable plan. (And if you pre-pay for your first three months, that price goes down to just $16.67 per month, or $50 total.)

The best Sling TV deals to watch the 2026 World Cup:

Sling offers access to dozens of live TV channels, and there are several subscription tiers that offer all the channels you need to watch the 2026 World Cup.

Sling Select is the most economical package you want if you're looking to check out the 2026 World Cup games without breaking the bank. At just $20/month, it gets you FOX, FS1, NBC, ABC, and 10 other channels, so you can watch news, sports, and network shows, plus tons of additional sports and entertainment.

To get an even better deal, Sling also offers a prepaid package: pay for your first three months of Sling Select up front for just $49.99 to save $10. After three months, the regular monthly rate will apply.

Pre-pay for Sling Select and save $10:

A Sling Select plan includes Fox, FS1, ABC, NBC and 10 more channels, a great basic plan that will still get you every single game of the World Cup, at just $19.99/month. To save even more on the same great plan, pre-pay for three months up front for $49.99, and you'll save $10.

Save more than $20 if you pre-pay for your first three months of Sling Blue up front:

If you want a more robust plan, Sling Blue costs $45.99/month and includes FOX, FS1, and over 40 more channels, which means you can catch every game of the tournament in one place and also get access to channels like USA, Comedy Central, FX, AMC, and more. You can save more than $20 if you pre-pay for your first three months of Sling Blue up front, too. The cost if you pre-pay is $114.99, a $23 savings over month-to-month payments.

Save $23 up front by pre-paying for Sling Orange + Blue:

The most comprehensive Sling plan is Sling Orange + Blue, which gives you over 50 channels, including Fox and FS1, plus ESPN, NFL Network, USA, TNT, Bravo, CNN, and more. Sling Orange + Blue costs $60.99 per month, but pre-paying for 3 months saves you $23 up front; you’ll pay $160 for your first 3 months.
