Super Bowl LIV, one of the biggest television events of 2020, kicks off Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET. This year's NFL title game takes place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, with the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the San Francisco 49ers.

In the age of streaming and with many viewers “cutting the cord” on their cable subscriptions, many may be wondering how to watch without a traditional cable package. This year's coverage comes as Roku Inc. and Fox Corp. needed to reach a deal late Friday to avoid a Super Bowl blackout. Last year's Super Bowl had some technical issues for select Roku users.

Many will turn to the Fox Sports app to watch the game.

In order to watch the game for free on most streaming devices, people need only go to the Fox Sports website by following a link. Once there, select “Login” and then “Sign Up.” Members can use their Facebook accounts or create a new account and password. In addition to giving streaming access to members, Fox Sports also allows for the personalization of accounts by selecting favorite teams.

Once the account has been created, members need only verify their emails and they will be all set to download the Fox Sports app.

The app can be found on a variety of platforms, including the Apple App Store, Roku Store, Amazon App Store, and Google Play store.

With an account created and the app downloaded, football fans need only select the app on Sunday.

Another way to watch the game online is through fuboTV.

Watching the game in 4K ultra high definition resolution requires a television that has 4K capabilities, which most do. Watching online requires enough bandwidth to handle a 4K stream.

Roku, Amazon Fire TV and Apple allow viewers to watch the Fox Sports app stream.

CBS said the 2019 Super Bowl set a streaming record with an average minute audience of 2.6 million viewers, which was up 31% from the 2018 Super Bowl.
