Serie A is one of the most tactically fascinating leagues in the world, and watching it in the USA is straightforward. Important+ has the exclusive rights, and the coverage is full. Here's everything you need to know.
Key+ ($7.99/month)
Important+ is the home of Serie A in the USA. Every game is available on the platform — all 380 matches per season, including the big derbies and the title deciders. The Essential plan costs $7.99/month, and the Premium plan (no ads) is $13.99/month.
The coverage includes English commentary for the biggest games and Italian commentary for all games. The streaming quality is reliable, and the app works on every major platform.
Important+ also has the Champions League, so if you're following Italian clubs in Europe, you're covered with one subscription.
CBS Sports Network (select games)
CBS Sports Network broadcasts select Serie A games on linear TV. The biggest games — the Milan derby, Juventus vs. Inter, and other marquee matchups — are sometimes on CBS Sports Network or even CBS's main channel. Check the schedule each week.
Kickoff times in US time zones
Serie A games kick off throughout the weekend, and the times are reasonable for US viewers:
- Saturday 12:00 PM CET / 6:00 AM ET / 3:00 AM PT: Early kickoff (tough for West Coast)
- Saturday 3:00 PM CET / 9:00 AM ET / 6:00 AM PT: Main slate (2-3 games)
- Saturday 6:00 PM CET / 12:00 PM ET / 9:00 AM PT: Afternoon kickoff (1-2 games)
- Saturday 8:45 PM CET / 2:45 PM ET / 11:45 AM PT: Late kickoff (the big game)
- Sunday: Similar schedule
The 2:45 PM ET Saturday kickoff is the prime slot — it's when the biggest games are scheduled, and it's a perfect time for US viewers. The early kickoffs are brutal for West Coast fans, but East Coast viewers can catch most games at reasonable hours.
Why watch Serie A?
Serie A is the most tactically sophisticated league in the world. Italian coaches are obsessed with tactics — formations, pressing triggers, defensive shapes, and positional play. If you want to understand football at a deeper level, Serie A is the league to watch.
The league also has some of the best young talent in the world. Kvaratskhelia, Barella, Bastoni, and Vlahović are all world-class players who would start for any team in Europe. And the atmosphere at Italian stadiums — especially the derbies — is unmatched.
Real Talk
Key+ at $7.99/month is the only option for Serie A in the USA, and it's good value. You get every game, plus the Champions League and other CBS Sports content. If you're a football fan who wants to expand beyond the Premier League, Serie A is the perfect next step.
