The short answer
To watch Serie A in the USA: Paramount+ is the exclusive English-language home of Italian football, streaming every single Serie A match live, plus the Coppa Italia and the Supercoppa Italiana. A handful of marquee matches each season also air on CBS's linear and digital networks — CBS, CBS Sports Network and the free CBS Sports Golazo Network — but for every match you need Paramount+. Spanish-language coverage is on DAZN. There is no way to watch every Serie A game free, but the free CBS Sports Golazo Network carries a selection. Check Paramount+ for its current subscription tiers and price.
Paramount+: the exclusive English-language home
Paramount+ holds the exclusive English-language US rights to Serie A and is the home of every match. All 380 Serie A matches a season stream live on Paramount+, alongside a minimum of 20 Coppa Italia matches and every Supercoppa Italiana fixture — the complete Italian top-flight package in one place. CBS Sports and Lega Serie A extended this partnership through the 2026/27 season, so the deal is locked in for the near term.
For an American fan of Italian football, this makes Paramount+ the single necessary subscription: every Inter, Milan, Juventus, Napoli and Roma game, plus every other fixture in the division, live and on demand. Paramount+ wraps the matches in CBS Sports' studio coverage and analysis, the same production stable that carries the UEFA Champions League in the US.
Paramount+ streams on essentially every device — Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, smart TVs from Samsung and Vizio, PlayStation, Xbox, plus iOS, Android and the web — so the full Serie A season is available wherever you watch.
Serie A on the CBS networks
Beyond the every-match Paramount+ streaming, a selection of Serie A matches each season airs across CBS Sports' linear and digital ecosystem. That includes the main CBS Television Network for the occasional marquee fixture, CBS Sports Network, and the CBS Sports Golazo Network — CBS's 24/7 free, ad-supported soccer channel (a FAST channel).
The CBS Sports Golazo Network is the notable free piece: it is a free streaming channel available on platforms like Pluto TV, Paramount+'s free tier surfaces, Samsung TV Plus and the CBS Sports app, and it carries select Serie A matches and highlights at no cost. It is not the every-game home — that's Paramount+ — but it is a genuinely free way to catch some Serie A action and the wraparound coverage.
The big network broadcasts on CBS itself are reserved for a small number of standout fixtures across a season. For comprehensive coverage — your club, every week — Paramount+ remains the route; the CBS networks are the supplementary linear and free layer on top.
Spanish-language Serie A: DAZN
For Spanish-speaking fans in the US, DAZN holds the Spanish-language rights to Serie A. Each matchday DAZN broadcasts a slate of Serie A games in Spanish — a mix of exclusive and non-exclusive fixtures — giving Hispanic-American fans of Italian football a dedicated Spanish-commentary option separate from Paramount+'s English coverage.
This is a parallel route rather than a replacement: Paramount+ remains the comprehensive every-match English home, while DAZN provides the Spanish-language broadcasts for the fans who prefer them. A fan who wants every match in English uses Paramount+; a fan who wants Spanish commentary uses DAZN for the games it carries.
Between Paramount+ in English and DAZN in Spanish, Serie A is available in both major US broadcast languages — a reflection of how large the Italian-football and broader soccer audience has become in the United States.
Is Serie A free to watch in the USA?
Not comprehensively, but partly. Every Serie A match streams on Paramount+, which is a paid subscription. There is no service that carries every match for free.
What is free: the CBS Sports Golazo Network — CBS's 24/7 free ad-supported soccer channel — carries a selection of Serie A matches and highlights at no cost, available on Pluto TV, Samsung TV Plus, the CBS Sports app and similar free platforms. So a fan willing to watch the games Golazo selects, rather than every match, has a free route to some Serie A. The official Serie A and CBS Sports channels also post free highlights.
The cheapest comprehensive route is a Paramount+ subscription, which frequently runs promotional pricing and offers a free trial for new subscribers — worth checking at sign-up. For a fan who wants every match of their club's season, Paramount+ is the necessary subscription; the free Golazo channel is the supplement for casual viewing.
Cost summary and US kick-off times for Serie A
The comprehensive route is Paramount+, the exclusive English-language home of every Serie A match. Paramount+ is sold on tiers (a lower-cost ad-supported plan and a higher premium plan), and it frequently offers promotional pricing and a free trial — check the current tiers and price at sign-up, as the comprehensive Serie A access is whatever the standard streaming tier costs. The free CBS Sports Golazo Network supplements it for casual viewing at no cost, and DAZN is the Spanish-language route.
On timing, the time difference makes Serie A a morning-and-early-afternoon watch in the US. The traditional Italian kick-off slots — roughly 12:30, 3:00, 6:00 and 8:45 p.m. CET — land at about 6:30 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 2:45 p.m. ET respectively. So the early Italian game is a US breakfast watch on the East Coast, and the late Sunday-night Italian match is a mid-afternoon ET kick-off — convenient weekend viewing for most of the country.
Pacific-time fans subtract three hours, making the early Italian games genuinely early-morning, but the marquee late-afternoon Italian fixtures still land at a civil late-morning PT slot. Across the US, Serie A's weekend schedule is well suited to American viewing once you have the Paramount+ subscription.
