Fubo
Live sports and TV without cable
Depending on where you live, there are many ways to watch Chelsea without cable, including Sling or Fubo.
But the big variable there is where you live. Watching live sports in 2024 is a complicated business — the offerings change whether you’re in market or not.
If you live in the Chelsea TV market, most events air on Fubo Sports Network 2. Fubo Sports Network 2 is available on streamers like Sling and Fubo.
If you live farther away but still want to watch Chelsea, most events air on Fubo Sports Network 2 and Fubo Sports Network 3. You can get access on Sling and Fubo.
Pair your streaming subscription with a VPN like ExpressVPN (or read more about our other top VPN picks) to watch all the games — regardless of blackout region.
If you just want to watch national broadcasts, our team’s pick for most people to watch Chelsea, is Fubo. Here’s why:
- Fubo is available at the lowest monthly price point: $74.99.
- Fubo carries the most upcoming Chelsea events — 3 of them in the next month.
- Fubo offers 10 simultaneous streams so more than one person can watch Chelsea at once on the same account.
- Fubo is available in every region of the United States. (Viewers in blackout zones can access Fubo with a VPN, like ExpressVPN — or one of our other top VPNs.)
But if Fubo doesn’t work for you, no need to stress. We also found another way to watch Chelsea without cable.

Region-blocked pick: Watch Chelsea on Fubo with ExpressVPN
If you are live in the same city as the Chelsea or outside of the United States, you could have a hard time watching Chelsea on Fubo. Why? Sports are among the most difficult events to watch live without cable because of the limits placed on regional sports markets.
In this case, the surest way to watch Chelsea is with a VPN. It’s not very complicated. You simply need to join a server in a region where Chelsea games are available on Fubo and sign up for a Fubo account if you don’t already have one. Then you can watch to your heart’s content — wherever you are in the world.
The most premium VPN is ExpressVPN. ExpressVPN isn’t the cheapest VPN on the market, but it is the option that makes watching Chelsea the easiest — with servers in nearly 100 countries. But if you’d like to consider other VPN options, read about our top VPN picks.

Local pick: Watch Chelsea with an antenna
Another way to watch Chelsea If you live in the same city as it with an OTA antenna. This doesn’t work for every event, but if you’re located nearby and local networks carry the event you’re after, an antenna could be the cheapest way to watch Chelsea without cable.
Best of all, an antenna doesn’t require a subscription. Purchase the hardware and you’ll be able to watch local broadcasts as long as the antenna keeps working. Not sure which antenna to buy? Read our OTA antenna guide.

How to bet on Chelsea games
Want to get some action on today’s Chelsea game? Flixed has partnerships with the best legal sportsbooks to give you great offers to bet on the Chelsea at BetMGM, DraftKings, WynnBET, and more. See below for the best sportsbook promos in your state to bet on Chelsea moneyline, point spread, total, props and more.
Chelsea Odds
If you open up your favorite sportsbook app (especially BetMGM) to bet on the Blues you’ll see a number of different types of bets you can make. Below you’ll learn about each type of wager so you can make the most information bet on the Blues.
Blues Spread
The point spread, or simply “spread”, is a type of bet that involves the number of points a team is expected to win (or lose) by. Below is an example of a point spread in a Chelsea game.
Blues -6.5 (-110)
Club Brugge +6.5 (-110)
In this example the Blues is the favorite, meaning they are expected to win the game specifically by 6.5 points. We know half points don’t exist, but in the above example the Blues would need to win by 7 or more points for a bet on them to win. If they win by less than 6 points, the Club Brugge will have covered the spread and a bet on them would win. The numbers after the spread are the odds you would get on that bet, in this case -110. That means that if you bet $11 on the Blues and they won by 7, you’d win $10.
Blues Moneyline
A moneyline bet is the simplest bet you can make - it is simply a bet on whichever team you think will win the game outright. Because there is no point spread to handicap the teams to account for differences in quality, the odds on either team will vary more drastically based on how big of a competitive mismatch oddsmakers believe the game is. Below is an example of a Blues moneyline:
Blues -275
Club Brugge +220
The +/- indicate the favorite and the underdog, similar to with the point spread. In this case the Blues would be considered the favorite to win the game at -275 and the Club Brugge would be the underdog at +220. The differences in odds are a reflection of how good the Blues are compared to the Club Brugge. In this case, a $27.50 bet on the Blues would only win you $10 if they win the game. Conversely, to win the same $10 betting on the underdog, you’d only need to wager roughly $4.50.

Blues Total (Over/Under)
The total, or over/under (o/u), is a type of bet that is based around the total number of points scored in the game by both teams combined. Below is an example of a total bet in a Chelsea game:
Blues vs Club Brugge Total: 49
- Over 49 (-110)
- Under 49 (-110)
A bettor will either bet over or under on the total provided. If you bet the over, the combined score of both teams would need to be greater than 49 points for that bet to win. Conversely, if the total combined points is less than 49, the under would win. If the total lands on exactly 49 points, that is called a push and you would receive your stake back. Again, the -110 are the odds you get on either side of the total, in this case an $11 bet would win you $10.
Blues Prop Bets
Prop, or proposition, bets are types of bets that pertain to a specific player, event, or game statistic. These bets can be over a specific game or the entire season. There are a few different types of prop bets - player props, game props, team props, and novelty props. Below are examples of prop bets in a Chelsea game:
Blues RB to record over 59.5 rushing yards - Player Prop
This bet is similar to a total in that you can bet the over or the under on the total rushing yards set. In this case, the above wager is that the Running Back for the Blues will rush for 60 yards or more. This is a player prop because it pertains to a specific player’s performance.
Blues vs Club Brugge to combine for over 4.5 touchdowns - Game Prop
This bet again is similar to a total bet in that you can bet the over or the under on the total number of touchdowns set. In this case, the above wager is that both teams will score a combined 5 touchdowns or more in the game. This is a game prop because it pertains to a combined stat for both teams for the duration of the game.
Blues to score over 22.5 points - Team Prop
Again, we see our familiar format of the total bet where we are able to wager on the over or under of a specific stat or number. In this case, we are betting that the Blues will score 23 or more points in this game, regardless if they win or lose. This is a team prop because it pertains to the performance of only one team and not on the outcome of the game.
- Color of the Gatorade Bath Blue - Novelty Prop
These bets are most popular during major game and championship events like the Super Bowl. In the bet above, we are wagering that the color of the Gatorade dumped on the winning coach to be blue. These bets typically have very low limits, meaning you can’t bet large amounts on them. Other popular novelty props are the length of the national anthem, who the MVP of the game will thank first, the number of times a certain phrase is mentioned during the broadcast, and more.
Want to jump in and start wagering? BetMGM has the best offers on Blues odds and prop bets.
Our takeaway: Fubo is the best way to watch Chelsea
You don’t need to shell out for a cable subscription to watch Chelsea games live. Our top pick for watching Chelsea is Fubo. But if you’re in a geo-blocked region, you could also try out a VPN subscription — or get yourself an antenna to watch Chelsea locally.
