European nations controlled by UEFA, UEFA Euro2024™ (five matches)

and the company’s carriage agreement with FOX Sports, subscribers
can enjoy complete UEFA coverage with FuboTV.
FuboTV’s exclusive UEFA Nations League™ coverage will stream
live on Fubo Sports Network, which is available as part of FuboTV’s
base plan of 100+ sports, news and entertainment channels. Select
UEFA Nations League™ matches will stream live on Fubo Sports
Network through its distribution partners including Hisense Smart
TVs, LG Channels, Sports on Tubi, Plex, Samsung TV Plus, The Roku
Channel, Vizio Channels and XUMO.
The company has not announced any additional distribution
partnerships with PPV beyond the four June 2022 UEFA Nations
League™ matches at this time.
