Soccer Viewership: MAY 6 - 12

Liga MX takes the top two spots as the Clausura Quarter-Finals finish up.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• The Premier League match between Arsenal and United was on Peacock as well as Telemundo. No Peacock number was reported which means it wasn't anything... to report.

• The Premier League on NBC is up +6% calendar year, vs. 2023. It is down -5% on USA.

• Liga MX remains down -14% on Univision YOY. With only a few games left, it can not make up the ground. I'll wait till Clausura is over before giving more thoughts on why.

• The NWSL continues its consistent streak on ION. The "pre match" show is benefiting from whatever the lead-in is (Law and Order?). Still, that's a good thing to try and get new fans.

• MLS was back up to 300k due to the Seattle/Portland draw (the two most watched teams). FS1 eeked out a number for "Hell is Real."

MLS is down -20% from last year on FOX.

Housekeeping note: I don't have the UEFA Champions League numbers from last week. I will include them in my reporting when I see them.
