Soccer Viewership: Jan 22 - 28

A light week on the Premier League side, FA Cup.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• Club America v Necaxa takes the top spot with 866k on Univision.

• Liga MX is down -9% YOY on Univision through the 1st four weeks of the year.

• Prem is up +2% on NBC YOY 2024 and flat on USA.

• MLS started advertising the Apple Season Pass last week. Looks like they are going with the same price plan of $15 month/$100 a year. I was expecting a change (giving it to Apple TV+ subscribers for free), but it did not happen. Having Messi on your league roster is likely what's keeping the price where it is. I see Messi MLS interest fading ahead of Copa, but might pick up in the fall if Miami is good.
