If you want to watch soccer, the Apple TV Plus MLS Plan is well worth checking out, as it lets you stream Major League Soccer games over the internet, all form one platform.

Wits Lionel Messi becoming a part of the MLS recently, thanks to his joining Inter Miami, countless soccer fans have flocked to this Apple TV Plus spin-off in order to watch the legend play.

That’s right, the Apple TV Plus MLS Plan is a spin-off to ’standard’ Apple TV Plus, and that means this service doesn’t offer you movies or TV shows. Just soccer. That can make the streaming service a little confusing, so here’s everything you need to know about it.

Apple TV Plus MLS price

So what's the cost of Apple TV Plus MLS each month? In the US, you have to pay $14.99 for the plan, and in the UK it's £14.99.

The plan doesn't include the standard Apple TV Plus, but if you already subscribe to Apple's movie and TV subscription service, you can save $2/£2 on that monthly cost. In addition, the Apple TV Plus free trials you see everywhere doesn't cover the MLS plan, except in a few special cases.

Apple TV Plus MLS season pass

You can save money on the Apple TV Plus MLS plan by paying for a season pass, which will let you watch games until the MLS season ends in December.

This costs $99/£99, but if you already subscribe to Apple TV Plus, it's only $79/£79, so you'll save money by paying for the full season of the streaming service that way.

What MLS games can you stream?

The good news for MLS fans is that the Apple TV Plus MLS plan lets you stream every single game from the 29 teams participating in the league. This includes regular season matches, as well as playoff and MLS Cup matches.

Plus, all of the Leagues Cup matches are available on the MLS Season Pass too, so you can see the US, Canadian and Mexican teams go head-to-head. The exception to this is Mexico, as the Apple TV Plus app won't let you stream Leagues Cup games there.

How to stream Apple TV Plus MLS

You use the Apple TV Plus app to stream MLS games.

This app is available on all Apple devices including iPhones on iOS, iPads on iPadOS, Macs on MacOS and Apple TVs on tvOS.

In addition you can use smart TVs, games consoles, PCs, Android phones and tablets, ChromeOS devices and Windows PCs to stream Apple TV Plus, and therefore MLS.
