The final few days of January and the first weekend of February 2024 treated fans to some exciting matches, particularly in the Premier League, with six English top-flight matches making the list of most-watched soccer games in the USA between January 29 and February 4, 2024.
Wolves feature twice on this list, once for their dramatic defeat at home to Manchester United and the other for their 4-2 win at Chelsea. That Stamford Bridge triumph, alongside Tottenham's 2-2 draw away to Everton, garnered the most average viewers for a single Premier League tie (387,000 each). However, no English top-flight fixture made it into last week's top three most-watched games.
That honor went to Liga MX, with the Mexican top-flight taking up all three spots on the podium, starting with Club America's one-all draw with Monterrey. As usual, Univision's coverage earned the most eyeballs, with just over one million average viewers tuning in to watch the Eagles drop points.
The reigning Apertura champions were not the only ones to drop points at home, with Tigres UANL drawing 2-2 against Pumas UNAM, which happens to be second on this list. 782,000 average viewers turned on Univision to catch this tie as the Tigres threw away a two-nil lead to settle for a point.
And completing Univision's clean sweep is Toluca's 4-1 thrashing of Leon. Four different players got their names on the scoresheet in this showdown, which garnered an impressive 439,000 average viewers for TelevisaUnivision's Spanish-language television network. Check out the list of most-watched soccer games in the USA between January 29 and February 4 below.
