🇦🇹 How to watch Austria at the 2026 World Cup in Spanish
Austria reach the 2026 World Cup through UEFA and have been drawn into Group J alongside Argentina, Algeria and Jordan. Austria have yet to win a World Cup, and a strong group stage would already be a notable run.
How to watch in Spanish
To watch Austria in Spanish in the United States, the simplest free option is Telemundo, which broadcasts over the air and reaches the large majority of US Hispanic households at no cost.
Universo carries additional Spanish-language coverage on cable, and Peacock streams the matches in Spanish for viewers who prefer to watch on a phone, tablet or smart TV. If you only want the biggest games, free over-the-air Telemundo is usually enough; if you want every match in Spanish, Peacock is the most complete option.
How to watch Austria without cable
You do not need cable to follow Austria. Stream their matches in Spanish on Peacock, which runs on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, phones and smart TVs, or watch the biggest games free over the air on Telemundo with a digital antenna.
Live-TV services like Fubo, DirecTV Stream and Sling also carry Telemundo and Universo over the internet, with no cable contract.
Most of these streaming apps offer a free trial, and a digital antenna is a one-time purchase, so you can follow Austria in Spanish without committing to a monthly cable bill, and switch between the free over-the-air signal and streaming depending on the match.
