New York City FC and New York Red Bulls clash in the Hudson River Derby tonight at Citi Field. Rivalry matches are always entertaining, but they’re even better when both teams are good, which will be the case in this one. The Red Bulls sit third in the East with 23 points through 13 matches, while NYCFC are nipping at their heels at 20 points.
This one is about to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be broadcast exclusively on MLS Season Pass in the United States and Canada. Here’s everything you need to know to watch a live stream of the match.
Every game this season streams live on MLS Season Pass, with absolutely zero exceptions. Some games will be televised on the Fox networks, but even those ones will be simulcast on Season Pass.
This one isn’t on TV, which means that Season Pass is the only way you can watch it if you’re in the United States or Canada. Unfortunately, there’s no free trial for Season Pass, so you’ll have to cough up either $15 for a month of the service or $69 for the entire rest of the season if you want to watch NYCFC vs Red Bulls. If you’re an Apple TV+ subscriber, however, those prices drop to $13 and $59.
That’s pretty steep for a single game, but if you plan on watching any more MLS throughout the season, it quickly becomes a pretty solid value. Not only do you get every MLS game, but there’s also Leagues Cup, MLS Next and MLS Next Pro available.
You’ll need to head to the Apple TV app or website in order to sign up for Season Pass and watch the match.
If you’re outside the United States and Canada, you can use a virtual private network (VPN) to watch the match. Season Pass is geographically restricted, but a VPN can hide your IP address/location in order to bypass those restrictions and let you access the streaming service from pretty much anywhere in the world.
NordVPN is fast and easy to use, plus it is currently offering a 30-day money-back guarantee. That means you’ll need to pay up front, but it essentially operates as a free trial if choose to “return” it. You can also find some other good alternatives in our rundown of the best VPN services available right now.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
