Fubo.TV aims to have you cut the cord and stakes a claim to be your sole soccer-watching source.

To watch a professional game of any sport usually requires a subscription. In the past, the only way was through a cable subscription. To follow all the games of your specific team, you’ll have to get a match pass or a subscription to the local sports network. Those costs can quickly add up, and region-specific content can be hard to access. For example, if you wanted to watch the NBA playoffs, you needed a cable subscription that included both ESPN and TNT to catch the games not broadcast on local channels.

Soccer is even harder to watch on TV. The Premier League is shown on free broadcast NBC, and more games on NBC Sports Network (NBCSN). If you have a cable package with NBCSN, you’ll still need an additional subscription to watch some select games.

This is just to watch Premier League games.

If you want to watch other leagues like Serie A, La Liga or Champions League a higher tier subscription is necessary.

Fubo.TV aims to simplify things.

It offers access to a host of sports from soccer to racing, boxing, MMA and even European basketball. On the soccer side, there is access to BeIN Sports, BeIN Sports ñ, GOLTV, Fox Sports, Univision and more. This means Serie A, Ligue 1, La Liga, Bundesliga, international friendlies and qualifiers, men’s and women’s World Cup, youth tournaments. Even more obscure leagues like the Brasileirao are available.

Earlier this year, Premier League matches could be watched in select U.S. cities, via access to the NBC channel network, USA and Telemundo. With this addition, Fubo.TV has made it the frontrunner in providing soccer access to virtually all major leagues and tournaments in one, affordable package.

Their top tier package bundles other sports networks like NBATV, PAC12 Networks NBC GOLF, and the NFL Network. AMC, the History channel, E! and FX are other mainstream channels offered.

Fubo.TV has made itself into a viable option for those who want to cut the cord and those who are avid sports fans. There is a digital DVR with up to 500 hours of space and no contract.

Fubo.TV is available in USA and Canada on PC, Mac, Apple TV, iOS, Android Roku, Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV & Kindle.
