The 262 games involving American teams will be available live, while the 129 games involving the three Canadian squads will be on a 48-hour delay, due to the MLS’s preexisting Canadian rights deal with TSN.

“It’s a tremendous time to be a soccer fan in Canada, and we know the sport has entered a new era nationally, with impressive growth in interest and in fandom,” said Alex Rice, Managing Director of Rights and Strategic Development at DAZN. “We are proud and excited to be offering fans even more soccer content on our platform, making it the destination with the most soccer in Canada.”

“We are thrilled to move MLS LIVE to a great new platform in Canada while providing our Canadian fans a way to watch MLS action all season long,” said Diego Moratorio, General Manager, MLS Canada. “DAZN will expand the reach of MLS LIVE, providing supporters easier access to the games they love.”
