US television coverage on Telemundo
American viewers can watch the match through their local Telemundo affiliate, with the network carrying the game in Spanish. Because the coverage is available on a major local broadcast station, supporters with a digital television antenna can receive it without a subscription where their local Telemundo signal is available.
Cable channel positions differ between cities and are determined by the local affiliate. The same applies to providers including Xfinity, Spectrum, Cox and Optimum.
Streaming options for viewers without an antenna
Fans watching on connected devices can access Telemundo through live-TV streaming services that offer introductory trials to eligible new customers. Both listed services provide five-day trial periods, though viewers would need to end a subscription before the trial expires to avoid a monthly charge.

| Fubo | Five days | Telemundo |
| DirecTV Stream | Five days | Telemundo |
Fubo also has a first-month offer that can reduce the initial cost by as much as $30. Its coverage includes many Serie A fixtures played across the usual Friday-to-Monday league round.
