Watching sports in the United States isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle. Whether it’s NFL, NBA, NHL, or MLB games, millions of people are tuning in to be a part of the action. Just because watching sports is popular, however, doesn’t mean every match is easily accessible. If you’ve been keeping up with the FA cup and are hoping to watch Arsenal vs. Manchester United, you may have a hard time finding it on any of your regular channels. Luckily, if you decide to sign up for the ESPN+ 7-day free trial, you can catch a glimpse of the action without having to pay a dime.

If you aren’t already familiar with ESPN+, we’ve already put together a helpful explainer to give you the full rundown. Despite appearances, ESPN+ isn’t a standalone streaming service or a replacement for cable, it’s a convenient new way to access ESPN content and live sports through an app. With this service, you get access to live MLB, NHL, NBA, and MLS games, as well as college sports, cricket, rugby, and a whole host of other sports. With video being streamed at 6o frames per second, the ESPN+ app allows you to see all of the action without stutters and choppy video. It is currently available for the following devices: Android smartphones, Android TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Cube, Fire Tablets, iPhone, and iPad.

Though ESPN+ is an awesome app in and of itself, it’s also one of the only ways you can watch the FA Cup if you live in the United States. In August, ESPN+ actually reached a multiyear deal with the FA Cup to bring live coverage of English football matches to the states. So if you’re hoping to catch a glimpse of the Arsenal vs. Manchester United match this Friday, January 25, this free trial offer is a great way to do so.

Like most streaming services, you can cancel your subscription at any time. If you reach the end of your 7-day free trial and decide you don’t want to pay for the service, you just need to make sure you unsubscribe before the payments start. However, if you do want to continue to enjoy this service, it isn’t expensive. You can choose to pay $5 per month or only $50 for an entire year.

Chiefs vs Bills live stream: How to watch the game for free
Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs stares from the sideline.

The best game of the Divisional Round in the 2024 NFL Playoffs features Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs taking on Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Both teams have Super Bowl aspirations, so this will definitely be a game to watch. The Chiefs are trying to become the first team since the 2003 and 2004 Patriots to win back-to-back Super Bowls. Buffalo is still looking to capture its first Super Bowl in franchise history.

The Chiefs and Bills have formed one of the best rivalries in the NFL in the Mahomes-Allen era. Since 2020, the Bills are 3-1 against the Chiefs in the regular season. These two teams met on December 10, 2023, with Buffalo coming out with a 20-17 win. However, the Chiefs are an undefeated 2-0 against the Bills in the postseason, with their most recent matchup coming in the 2022 Divisional Round, where Kansas City won 42-36 in overtime.

How to watch the free Buccaneers vs. Lions live stream
Jared Goff runs off the field for the Lions.

The Divisional Round of the 2024 NFL Playoffs continues on Sunday afternoon as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head north to play the Detroit Lions. Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET/12 p.m. PT on January 21. The game will be broadcast live on NBC and simulcast on Peacock. Mike Tirico will call the game alongside Cris Collinsworth, with Melissa Stark and Kaylee Hartung providing sideline reports inside Ford Field in Detroit.

Many experts did not predict the Bucs to make the postseason, let alone win a playoff game. Yet, Tampa dominated the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card Round on their way to a 32-9 victory. However, beating the Lions will not be easy. Detroit feels like a team of destiny after the Lions last week notched their first playoff win since the 1991 season.

Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens live stream: watch the NFL Divisional Round for free
Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens runs into the huddle on a football field.

The Divisional Round of the 2024 NFL Playoffs kicks off Saturday afternoon when the Houston Texans face the Baltimore Ravens. The game will air on ABC and ESPN beginning at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT on January 20. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman will call the game in the booth, while Lisa Salters and Laura Rutledge will provide reports from the sidelines. The game will be played inside M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.

Win or lose, the 2023 season has been a home run for the Texans. Houston picked the right quarterback – C.J. Stroud – and coach – DeMeco Ryans – to lead their franchise in the coming years. The Texans enter Baltimore after a 45-14 win over the Browns in the Wild Card Round. While the Texans should be happy just to be in the Divisional Round, the Ravens have bigger plans for their season. Baltimore had the best regular season record at 13-4, so anything short of a Super Bowl appearance will be considered a failure.
