How to Watch Newcastle United in the Premier League and Beyond

I see Newcastle United playing well recently, and notice how their popularity extends far beyond the UK’s borders.

In a hurry? In the United States, Newcastle matches are distributed by NBC Sports (NBC, USA Network). Stream them with these services:

Why You Need a VPN Today

However, first you need a VPN to unblock US streaming services from . Our favourite is ExpressVPN. It’s definitely not the cheapest option at $4.99/month, but it just works – and across all your devices.

They have servers in 25+ US cities/states and 105 countries, which unblock access to premium streaming platforms available only in the US, as well as free “on demand” TV services worldwide.

You’ll have access to local platforms as if you were in the country, meaning you can watch BBC iPlayer as if you were in the UK, CBC Gem as if you were in Canada, plus hundreds more worldwide.

Sign Up for ExpressVPN

Hotdog users get three months free at ExpressVPN, so it’s a “no-brainer” for us. Decide for yourself with their 30 day money-back guarantee.

IMPORTANT: Once you’ve installed your VPN and connected to a US server, you’ll still need to subscribe separately to access premium streaming services.

Sign Up for a Free Fubo Trial

Newcastle United can be found on Peacock Premium ($7.99/month), ESPN+ ($10.99/month), and Paramount+ ($7.99/month) for matches in the Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA.

Why do you support Newcastle United? Perhaps it’s a result of watching the movie, Goal! Maybe that cult classic had no impact whatsoever on your fandom. Or are you not a Magpies fan at all and simply want to catch Premier League and related matches whenever you can? Regardless, you’re in the right place. We’ll help you watch Newcastle United in the Premier League and beyond without cable.

Where to Watch Newcastle United

Where you can stream Newcastle United matches depends on your location as those rights vary from country to country. On top of that, they differ from competition to competition. So, if you want to check out the club’s upcoming FA Cup fixture, you’ll usually need to watch a different broadcaster’s stream than you had been for its Premier League matches.

Watching in the USA

In the US, a considerable majority of Newcastle United matches are carried by NBC-related outlets as NBCUniversal owns the broadcasting and streaming rights to Premier League matches here. Meanwhile, ESPN+ is where you should go for FA Cup broadcasts while CBS-related entities handle EFL Cup matchups.

Many matches will be on live TV, which will require one of these service:

• Fubo: Starting at $79.99/month, you get 150+ channels with a strong focus on sports. (Fubo review)
• Sling TV: Get 40+ channels for $40.00/month with NBC and FOX in select markets in the Sling Blue package. (Sling TV review)
• DIRECTV STREAM: Provides 90+ channels including ESPN, NBC, and CBS for $86.99/month. (DIRECTV STREAM review)
• Hulu + Live TV: For $82.99/month get 95+ live TV channels in and ESPN+. (Hulu Live review)
• YouTube TV: Provides 100+ channels for $82.99/month.

All services come with cloud DVR storage and simultaneous streaming on multiple devices. These are supported by all services: Amazon Fire TV, Android mobile, Android TV-based smart TVs, Apple TV, Chromecast, iOS, Roku, Samsung smart TVs, and web browsers. There is wide (but not universal) support for other smart TVs (eg, LG, Vizio) and gaming systems (eg, Xbox One, PlayStation).

Watching Elsewhere

Canada

Are you a Magpies supporter in Canada? Get Fubo. It streams all Premier League matches in that country. As for the club’s cup ties, head to Sportsnet (FA Cup) and DAZN (EFL Cup).

UK

If you’re actually in Tyne and Wear or elsewhere in the UK, you can watch Newcastle United play Premier League and EFL Cup matches via Sky Sports streams, some other Premier League fixtures courtesy of TNT Sports and Amazon Prime, and FA Cup games through BBC’s and ITV’s streaming outlets. ITV also shows some EFL Cup games.

Australia

Newcastle United supporters Down Under will be focusing on Optus Sport for Premier League and FA Cup broadcasts and beIN Sports for EFL Cup streams.

Newcastle United’s Competitions

Newcastle United, like nearly all soccer clubs throughout the world, takes part in multiple competitions. In its case, that includes a minimum of Premier League, FA Cup and EFL Cup fixtures.

Premier League

The 20-team top tier of English soccer is where Newcastle United plays its league fixtures and continues to do so as long as it avoids finishing in the bottom three spots in the table and getting relegated, which did happen in 2008-09 and 2015-16. Both times, however, the Magpies got promoted back up to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

However, Newcastle United was not a founding member of the Premier League as it was then enduring a four-year stay in England’s second tier, which ended in time for Newcastle to get promoted to and participate in the second Premier League season of 1993-94. The club has also spent previous periods of time in the second tier, but it has not been relegated to the third.

Newcastle United has never won the Premier League but did, on four occasions, claim First Division hardware; the First Division was the country’s top tier prior to the Premier League’s formation. Three of those titles came in the decade of the 1900s with the most recent taking place in 1926-27.

Domestic Cups

The FA Cup features all eligible clubs from at least the ninth tier of the English pyramid up with the 44 surviving non-Premier League sides joining the country’s elite teams in the 64-team third round. The Magpies have lifted this trophy six times, albeit not since its 1954-55 edition. In the years since, the team played in the final in 1974, 1998 and 1999.

The EFL Cup is a smaller competition that consists of the 92 teams in the country’s top four levels with Premier League clubs entering in the second and third rounds. Newcastle United has never won this cup but did finish second in 1975-76 and 2022-23.

European Competitions

Newcastle United regularly takes part in one or more European competitions, but this is not the case in 2024-25. In fact, the team is the top English side from the 2023-24 season to not qualify for Europe this campaign, which occurred after the club finished in seventh place in the Premier League table. Even eighth-place Manchester United did, doing so as a result of its FA Cup win.

The Magpies did participate in the Champions League as recently as 2023-24, however, although the club exited that competition in the group stage after finishing bottom of its group. Its biggest European success was winning the 1968-69 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, a predecessor of the Europa League. Its best European showing since then was a semifinal appearance at the 2003-04 UEFA Cup, the most recent Europa League predecessor.

Newcastle United History

Newcastle United was officially formed in 1892 although its origins can be traced to 1881 and to Stanley, Newcastle East End and Newcastle West End; the latter two entities merged in 1892 and included “United” in their new name to symbolize the uniting of them.

The Magpies have played at historic St James’ Park since that occurred.

Derbies

Although Newcastle United has two derby partners in Sunderland (Tyne-Wear derby) and Middlesbrough (Tyne-Tees derby), it will not face either in 2024-25 unless they are drawn together in one of the cups as the other two sides are in the second-tier Championship.

Newcastle 2023-24 Season

In the 2023-24 season, Newcastle United finished seventh in the Premier League and fourth in its Champions League group to go with quarterfinal appearances in the FA and EFL Cups.

Newcastle 2024-25 Season

The Magpies are under the tutelage of manager Eddie Howe, who has been in charge of the club since joining it partway through its 2021-22 season, making him the fifth-longest serving Premier League manager heading into the 2024-25 campaign.

Most prognosticators believe that Newcastle United will be in the mix for a spot in Europe — ie, finish in the top 10 of the league table but not challenge for the title.

As far as player personnel goes, midfielder Sandro Tonali is expected to be a significant contributor to the team’s successes while forward Alexander Isak will likely repeat as the club’s top goalscorer and might even top the Premier League in that statistical category. Defensively, center-back Lloyd Kelly will help provide stability and quality to the back line.

Here is a complete list of Newcastle United matches for the 2024-25 season.

Wrapping Up

Regardless of your own personal interests in this club, Newcastle United should be an intriguing team to watch without cable in 2024-25, and we’ll help you do that, wherever you are in the world.

Fubo is our top choice for Newcastle fans. But most will want to combine it with Peacock. Fubo allows you to try out its service with a free trial.
