The USL Championship and USL League One will be available on more platforms than ever before in the 2024 season with national broadcast agreements with CBS Sports, ESPN, TUDN and a wide range of local television agreements.
Each week, this guide is your one-stop-shop for finding out where every game from both leagues is available on national platforms and local networks.
Here’s our guide for the next seven days which brings us one of the marquee games in the USL Summer of Soccer as former USL Championship title winners Louisville City FC and Sacramento Republic FC square off on ESPN2 this Saturday night at Lynn Family Stadium.
The week’s national television slate kicks off on Wednesday night with a key game in the Eastern Conference as Detroit City FC looks to maintain its position above the playoff line against currently surging Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC on CBS Sports Network.
Saturday night also sees the return of action on TUDN as the Charleston Battery and Head Coach Ben Pirmann play host to former club Memphis 901 FC at Patriots Point at 7:30 p.m. ET. Meanwhile on CBS Sports Golazo Network there’s a doubleheader which kicks off with the two most recent Players’ Shield winners squaring off when Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC hosts San Antonio FC at 7 p.m. ET before defending Championship title holders Phoenix Rising FC hosts the Tampa Bay Rowdies at 11 p.m. ET.
The weekend’s national slate wraps up on Sunday evening on TUDN when U.S. Open Cup Semifinalist Indy Eleven welcomes current Western Conference leader New Mexico United to Michael A. Carroll Stadium at 5 p.m. ET.
