How to Follow the 2026 Copa Sudamericana on TV and Streaming
The Copa Sudamericana is CONMEBOL's second club competition, and its 2026 edition runs from March 3 to November 21. Forty-four clubs entered: sides from Argentina and Brazil went straight into the group stage, while the rest began with first-round ties against teams from their own country. Eight clubs that finished third in their Libertadores groups joined later in the knockout play-offs, where defending champions Lanús were knocked out by Cienciano. The single-match final is set for Barranquilla, Colombia.
Rights in Spanish-speaking South America are shared. In Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay, DSports and ESPN divide the matches, so fans often need DGO for some games and Disney+ for others. Brazil adds a free option: SBT shows selected matches on open TV, and ESPN, Disney+ and Paramount+ have the remainder. In Mexico, ESPN and Disney+ cover the competition.
Outside Latin America, the Copa Sudamericana mostly sits with beIN. Viewers in the United States get it on beIN SPORTS, in English and Spanish, or through Fubo and Fanatiz, while Canadians use beIN SPORTS or Fanatiz. Fans across the Arab world watch on beIN Sports and TOD, and the same beIN Sports brand carries it in Australia and New Zealand.
The winners earn a group-stage place in the next Copa Libertadores, a prize that gives clubs outside their domestic title race a second route onto the bigger stage.
Frequently Asked Questions
When and where is the 2026 Copa Sudamericana final?
The final is on Saturday, November 21, 2026, at the Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez in Barranquilla, Colombia, one week before the Libertadores final. It is a one-off match, and the winners earn a place in the 2027 Copa Libertadores group stage plus a Recopa Sudamericana meeting with the Libertadores champions.
Which channel has the Copa Sudamericana in Argentina?
The matches are split between DSports and ESPN. DSports games stream on DGO, while ESPN's share is on Disney+, so following one club through the whole tournament can mean switching between the two. The same split applies in Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay.
Is the Copa Sudamericana free to watch in Brazil?
Partly. SBT shows selected matches on free-to-air TV, while ESPN, Disney+ and Paramount+ carry the rest. Brazil is the only country in our rights listings with free coverage of the Sudamericana this season, so fans elsewhere need a pay channel or a streaming subscription.
How do I watch the Copa Sudamericana in the United States?
beIN SPORTS has the tournament, with coverage in both English and Spanish. Cord-cutters can stream it on Fubo or Fanatiz instead. With South American kick-offs mostly in the evening, New Yorkers usually see them between late afternoon and mid-evening, so midweek games fit around the working day.
Can I stream the Copa Sudamericana in Mexico?
Yes, on Disney+, which pairs with ESPN's TV coverage of the tournament in Mexico. Mexican clubs left CONMEBOL's competitions years ago, so every side in the draw comes from South America. For viewers with a cable or satellite package, ESPN's channels show the matches on TV.
How is the Copa Sudamericana different from the Copa Libertadores?
The Libertadores is the top tier, for each country's champions and best-placed sides, while the Sudamericana takes the next group of clubs plus teams that drop out of the Libertadores. Winning the Sudamericana is a ticket to the next Libertadores group stage, which raises the stakes for mid-table sides.
What time do Copa Sudamericana matches start?
Games are usually played on weekday evenings in South America, with Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday the main nights. In Europe that means kick-offs between late evening and the early hours, and in the Middle East, where beIN Sports and TOD carry the tournament, most matches land overnight.
Who shows the Copa Sudamericana in Canada, Australia and New Zealand?
Canada has beIN SPORTS on TV and Fanatiz for streaming. In Australia and New Zealand, the tournament is on beIN Sports, which also carries South American club football in the Gulf and North Africa through its TOD platform.
Will my Sudamericana streaming app work abroad?
Not always, because many services are region-locked. A fan from Chile with DGO, or a Brazilian with Paramount+, may find the app blocked on a trip abroad. Switching on a VPN with a Chilean or Brazilian server lets it play as normal, so you can follow your club from a hotel room in Madrid or Miami.
