For Verde viewing in 2023, it’s pretty simple. Every single Austin FC match is on Apple TV.
Say adios to matches broadcast over-the-air on The CW Austin and KBVO this season.

If you hadn’t heard, Apple and Major League Soccer signed an exclusive deal to present all MLS matches around the world for 10 years on the Apple TV app, beginning in 2023.
How to get MLS Season Pass on Apple TV
Apple TV’s new MLS Season Pass is a subscription streaming service that lets you watch the matches on any of your devices—TVs, phones, laptops, and other devices. The cost is discounted to $13 a month ($79 for the season) if you’re already a subscriber to Apple TV Plus. If you don’t have Apple TV Plus, you can pick up MLS Season Pass on its own for $15 a month ($99 for the season).
And if you’re an Austin FC 2023 season ticket holder you get one FREE subscription to MLS Season Pass per account (not seat). You should have received a code by email on February 1 to access the pass.
T-Mobile or Metro customers get MLS Season Pass on Apple TV for free, tweeted soccer reporter Paul Tenorio.
Will there be free Austin FC games to watch?

Who is in the broadcast booth?
Local broadcast crews are out with the new Apple TV deal, so we won’t hear the dulcet tones of Adrian Healey and Mike Lahoud week in and week out in 2023. Instead, Apple and MLS have lined up national broadcast crews that will present commentary to fans in English and Spanish; Canadian clubs will have the option of French. Play-by-play announcers and analysts were paired before the season started.
How to listen to Austin FC games
If the national broadcast crew doesn’t turn you on, you can also switch to a local English radio broadcast available on MLS Season Pass through a dropdown menu option, which will be synced to the match.
The club’s official radio broadcast partners, iHeart Radio’s KASE-FM (Alt 97.5) and TUDN Radio Austin (104.3), will air the matches in 2023. Lincoln Rose will once again provide English language radio play-by-play and Roger Valdivieso returns as the play-by-play announcer on TUDN.
