How To Watch & Live Stream Super Bowl LV (2/7/21)

nfl logo 100

For all you cable-cutters out there, the big game is around the corner, and there are a few options to watch Super Bowl LV. It is being televised on CBS this season, and anyone will have access to watch the game for free on CBSsports.com. You can mirror this if you have a phone and tv capable or use streaming services. You will not be able to watch the game on a few services, like ESPN+ and NBC Sports (Peacock). While there will be plenty of free streams around the internet, they are often unsecured and unreliable. With so many free trials and even CBS streaming the game on their website, you are better off going this route.

1. CBS All Access

With the Super Bowl being on CBS this year, their All Access app is the first place you can look. For new users, they offer a 7-day trial for both the premium and ad-based subscriptions they offer. Now, if you are looking to watch the Super Bowl and end a subscription, all of the sites here offer up a free trial. $5.99 a month is also a reasonable price if you are into Champions League and Europa League soccer as well. This will be starting back up for the group play, and CBS All Access has exclusive rights for those tournaments this season. There is no cable subscription required for CBS All Access as you need a CBS login.

2. Hulu + Live TV

Hulu has a few different packages to select, and it is key that you need the one with Live TV. The price comes out to $54.99 a month and has been a major option for cable-cutters, given it offers a variety of TV packages. There is a 7-day free trial if you are looking for the Super Bowl. However, you are not limited to just CBS programming like All Access if you were looking to test it out for a week. Hulu’s interface is one of my personal favorites and is very reliable for live TV streaming. You also do not need a cable subscription, just WiFi.

3. YouTube TV

YouTube TV also offers a streaming service that carries local and additional channels. It is a pricier package that does offer unlimited DVR space and regional sports packages. Most importantly, there is a 7-day free trial, and you can have up to six accounts, which makes it an easier service to split with friends to keep the cost down. YouTube TV offers local channels like NBC and CBS and plenty of sports channels like ESPN, NBC Sports, and Fox Sports.

4. FuboTV

Fubo TV has made many upgrades to their streaming service after being mostly known for European Football. Now they have begun to offer cable type packages. The price is slightly higher than some of the other streaming service sites at $65 for the family package, but they offer a 7-day trial. There are over 100+ channels in the Fubo package, so this is a great option if you are looking for a long term service. Fubo has a DVR feature, and you can also add sports packaging. None of that is needed, given the Super Bowl is on CBS.

5. Sling TV

Sling TV doesn’t differ too much from the others, but there is a shorter free trial given it is only three days. The biggest difference is the price, where their packages range from $30-45. In terms of cutting costs, Sling TV makes the most sense, given you still need to pay for a WiFi service on the side. Sling TV has been a staple in the NFL streaming game as they have offered a strong sports package and cover all of the main NFL channels. This, of course, includes CBS for the Super Bowl.
