Cape Verde FIFA World Cup 2026 TV Schedule
Cape Verde viewers get a mid-afternoon opener, a prime-time Uruguay test, and a late Group H decider on the CVT viewing route.
New World TV and SuperSport split Cape Verde's World Cup 2026 viewing route across selected free coverage and full premium access. FIFA's Sub-Saharan Africa rights update already places Cabo Verde inside New World TV's free-to-air sublicensing map, while SuperSport's current tournament guide confirms all 104 matches live on its DStv packages and streaming route. The Cape Verde FIFA World Cup 2026 TV schedule matters because the Blue Sharks are playing their first finals. One local page now keeps the channel split, kickoff times, and full tournament table together.
Spain and Cabo Verde drew 0-0 at 3:00 p.m. CVT on Monday, June 15 in Atlanta. Uruguay vs Cabo Verde now lands at 9:00 p.m. CVT on Sunday, June 21, and Cabo Verde vs Saudi Arabia follows at 11:00 p.m. CVT on Friday, June 26. Those dates are easier to track with the FIFA World Cup 2026 match schedule. One Cape Verde page now answers the local TV question without another conversion step.

How to Watch FIFA World Cup 2026 in Cape Verde — TV and Online
On TV — New World TV / SuperSport
New World TV is the first television route Cape Verde viewers should check for World Cup 2026 because FIFA has already confirmed its free-to-air sublicensing package across Cabo Verde and other Sub-Saharan markets. SuperSport International is the full-tournament route because SuperSport's own June 2026 coverage announcement says every one of the 104 matches is live across DStv-supported packages. Rights ownership is already clear. The daily task is checking whether your chosen match sits inside the New World TV free window or only on the full SuperSport slate.
Online and Mobile — New World TV digital access and DStv Stream
Cape Verde viewers should treat digital access as a split route as well. New World TV's rights package covers television and digital distribution in Sub-Saharan Africa, while DStv Stream handles the full SuperSport schedule on supported accounts. Test the app or login before Uruguay vs Cabo Verde. That matters even more before the Saudi Arabia match because it starts close to midnight in Praia.

Cape Verde Team at FIFA World Cup 2026
Cape Verde sit in Group H with Spain, Uruguay, and Saudi Arabia. The Blue Sharks already showed they belong on this stage by holding Spain to a goalless draw in Atlanta. That result leaves the group far more open than most viewers expected before kickoff. The local watch pattern now matters even more because qualification is still alive heading into the final two matches.
| Date | Kickoff (CVT) | Match | Venue | TV Channel |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monday, June 15 | 3:00 p.m. CVT | Spain vs Cabo Verde | Atlanta Stadium, Atlanta | New World TV / SuperSport |
| Sunday, June 21 | 9:00 p.m. CVT | Uruguay vs Cabo Verde | Miami Stadium, Miami | New World TV / SuperSport |
| Friday, June 26 | 11:00 p.m. CVT | Cabo Verde vs Saudi Arabia | Houston Stadium, Houston | New World TV / SuperSport |
The remaining Cape Verde schedule stays viewer-friendly until the last group night. Uruguay vs Cabo Verde falls into a strong 9:00 p.m. CVT slot on June 21, while Cabo Verde vs Saudi Arabia starts at 11:00 p.m. CVT on June 26. That gives Praia viewers one clean prime-time appointment and one late decider. The last match needs more planning around sleep and streaming access.
Is FIFA World Cup 2026 Free in Cape Verde?
Cape Verde should be treated as a mixed World Cup 2026 market rather than a fully free one. FIFA's rights announcement confirms a New World TV free-to-air package for selected daily matches in Cabo Verde, yet SuperSport controls the complete 104-match tournament through pay-TV and streaming access.
If you mainly want the Blue Sharks, the New World TV route should cover the most important local demand once daily selections are posted. If you want every group game and the full knockout bracket, keep SuperSport ready before the tournament schedule gets denser. The rights answer is already clear. The practical choice depends on how much of the tournament you plan to follow.
