As Scotland prepares to face Brazil in Miami, Linxi News examines the institutional broadcasting arrangements and subscription frameworks governing access to the tournament in the United States.
Scotland will face Brazil in their final 2026 FIFA World Cup Group Stage match on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at 6 p.m. ET. The fixture is scheduled to take place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. This encounter follows Scotland’s 1-0 victory over Haiti and 0-1 loss to Morocco, while Brazil enters the match after a draw with Morocco and a 0-3 defeat against the Netherlands.
In the United States, the match will be broadcast in English on FOX and in Spanish on Telemundo. Streaming availability is structured through several major providers, including YouTube TV, DirecTV, Peacock, and FOX One. These platforms hold the rights to deliver the tournament content to American audiences, reflecting the broader media landscape of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which spans multiple cities across North America.

The service is priced at $67.99 per month for the first five months, rising to $82.99 monthly thereafter. Subscribers can utilise a 21-day free trial, though it is noted that YouTube TV livestreams may experience a slight delay relative to the live event.
FOX One, a streaming service launched last summer, provides access to FOX channels such as FOX Sports, FS1, and local FOX stations. The base subscription costs $19.99 per month or $199.99 annually. A three-day free trial is available, allowing users to view World Cup matches without immediate commitment.
Peacock offers an ad-supported plan for $11 per month, which includes live sports and Spanish-language broadcasts of every 2026 World Cup game. Additionally, Peacock is included free with Walmart+, which is currently offering a 50% discount on its annual plan at $49.
