The World Soccer Talk Blackburn Rovers TV schedule has all the games for the Lancashire club on US TV and streaming.
Rovers date back to the latter half of the 19th century, and can boast a case full of trophies from bygone eras – but also some from more recent memory.
Blackburn Rovers on TV and streaming: U.S. only:
Founded: 1875
Stadium: Ewood Park
Manager: John Eustace
Best English top-flight finish: Winners (1912, 1914, 1995)

Lower titles: League Cup (2002), Second Division (1939), Third Division (1975), Charity Shield (1912)
You’ll find the EFL Championship streaming live matches on Paramount+ in the US. Not all games are featured, however. Moreover, some games will be available on CBS Sports Network or the CBS Sports Golazo Network. The same applies to the EFL Cup, which was included in CBS’s deal with the EFL.
However, the FA Cup remains on ESPN+. RoversTV is offered by the club and allows non-UK viewers to stream league games live (the ones not featured on Paramount+). Full-season and monthly subscriptions are available.
Our Pick:Includes: Champions League, Europa League, Serie A, NWSL, Argentine Primera, Brasileirão, Scottish Premiership, Women's Super League, & More |
Should a comeback to the EPL occur in the near future, USA Network, NBC, Telemundo, and Universo have TV matches through 2028. Peacock streams games that are not on television.
Blackburn Rovers were founded in 1875 and were co-founders of the Lancashire Football Association three years later. The club played in the FA Cup for the first time in 1879.
Starting in 1884, Blackburn became a force to be reckoned with in the early years of the competition. They won three in a row from 1884-1886, and a further two consecutive titles in 1890 and ’91. A sixth Cup, won in 1928, has Blackburn, as of 2023, tied with Newcastle with the fifth-most wins in the competition.
They’d win top-flight titles in 1912 and 1914, but after these, and the ’28 FA Cup triumph, it would be a long while before the club won a major honor.
Blackburn began playing at Ewood Park in 1881, and have been there continuously since 1890. An attempted arson attack by suffragettes in 1913 failed (similar attacks were made on Arsenal and Preston). By 1994, all four stands of the ground had been completely replaced.
The club won the promotion playoffs in 1991-92, earning them a spot in the ensuing inaugural Premier League season.
Blackburn was fourth in that first EPL campaign, then runners-up in 1994. In 1995, they narrowly finished ahead of Manchester United to win their third top-tier title. This is very notable because, as of 2023, they are one of only seven clubs to have won the Premier League. Rovers are one of the two smaller clubs to have won the EPL – the other being Leicester City.
Blackburn would go on to win the League Cup in 2002 and remain a Premier League side until 2012 when they were relegated. A further drop for a one-season stint in League One occurred in 2017, but they’ve been back in the Championship from 2018 on.
