Does Fubo offer RSNs? What about local sports?
We’ll explain everything you need to know about watching local and regional sports coverage with Fubo.
Ever since its humble beginnings as a streaming service dedicated to providing hard-to-watch soccer matches to fans in the United States, Fubo has prized its reputation as a live sports hub. The service offers a huge selection of live events every year, including nationally broadcast NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB games, college football and basketball, and much more. But there are a few gaps in Fubo’s sports offerings — the streamer does not currently offer TNT Sports channels, nor does it carry USA Network. So, what’s the availability of local sports on broadcast channels, as well as regional sports networks (RSNs) on Fubo? Clear up any confusion you may have with our guide below!

The streamer carries RSNs in both its Pro and Elite packages, which cost $89 and $99 per month before taxes and fees, respectively. See which channels are available in the table below, and which teams can be streamed on those channels:
Viewers can watch any of the RSNs listed above with a Fubo Pro or Elite subscription if they live in that channel’s broadcast footprint. In addition, all American customers with an English-language Fubo subscription get Marquee Sports Network, but live Chicago Cubs games will be blacked out for everyone outside the Chicago area.
