Other TV Markets: If you live in the US, but not in the local market of either team, you can watch the match on ESPN+. ESPN+ streams every MLS game this season as long as the game isn't airing on a national network and you don't live in TV market of either team playing. You can (sign up online) and watch nearly every out-of-market game.
Watching Orlando City SC Matches All Season
Where you can watch Orlando City SC depends on a couple of factors. First, if the game is airing nationally on a network like ABC, FS1, ESPN, and TUDN, then you will need that network to watch regardless of where you live. If you live inside their local TV market, Orlando City SC matches that aren’t nationally televised will be on Fox 35 Plus. If you live outside the Orlando City SC market, you can watch matches on ESPN+ if they aren’t airing on a national network. I’ll cover both possibilities and the streaming services you need to watch Orlando City SC throughout the 2022 season.
Watching Orlando City SC Matches in Market
Major League Soccer handles blackouts differently than most leagues. If a match is airing nationally on ABC, FS1, ESPN, or TUDN, then the match won’t air on Orlando City SC’s local flagship network, Fox 35 Plus. Unfortunately, Fox 35 Plus doesn’t stream through any live TV streaming service, so your best option would be to use an antenna to watch Orlando City SC matches. An antenna won’t provide those TUDN matches, but you can watch those for free through Twitter.
While there are many different types of antennas, and finding the perfect one requires some research, generally, if you live in a city or the suburbs, you can grab a $25 Flat TV antenna. The free return policy makes it no risk. If it doesn’t get the channels you want, you can return it for your money back. If the flat antenna doesn’t perform to your expectations, then check out the following instructional guides for more details on over-the-air TV.

- Learn How to Use One Antenna for Multiple TVs
- Learn How to Ground a TV Antenna
- Learn how to Improve Antenna TV Reception
- Record from your Antenna with an Over the Air DVR
You Will still need a way to watch FS1, ESPN, and TUDN. The best option is FuboTV.
FuboTV – fuboTV is a live streaming service that carries Fox, FS1, ESPN, ABC, ESPN2, and TUDN. They offer a 1-week free trial, which you can cancel within the trial period and not be charged. It’s also cheaper than DIRECTV STREAM at $69.99 per month. You can cancel at any time. Service is month-to-month with no long-term contract. The service supports iOS, Android, Fire TV, Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, and more. The price includes a cloud DVR and the ability to stream on 3 devices at once. (see our review of FuboTV)
Watching Orlando City SC Matches Outside their Market
If you live outside the Orlando City SC market, you will still need access to the channels that air national MLS broadcasts. However, games not airing nationally will be available on ESPN+ as long as you don’t live in the local market of either team playing. Hulu Live TV carries all the channels you need except for TUDN, but those matches are simulcast free on Twitter. Furthermore, Hulu Live TV is the only streaming service that lets you add ESPN+ to your subscription.
Hulu Live TV and ESPN+
Hulu Live TV includes access to Fox, FS1, ESPN, ABC, and ESPN2 and includes ESPN+ for a price of costs $69.99 per month. This will allow you to watch every Orlando City SC match this season as long as you are living outside the TV market for that week’s match.

Other Ways To Watch Nationally Televised Matches
While ESPN+ covers a big portion of your out-of-market Orlando City SC games, you will still need a way to watch National Games. The streaming service in the list below should suffice.
DIRECTV STREAM – DIRECTV STREAM is a live streaming service that carries Fox, FS1, ESPN, ABC, and ESPN2 in their “Entertainment” package for $69.99 per month after a 5-Day Free Trial. TUDN is available on their more expensive “Ultimate” package for $104.99 per month. However, any games on TUDN will also be streamed on Twitter, so you can airplay or cast any of those games from your mobile device to your TV for free, so I don’t recommend upgrading to Ultimate unless you have to.
