Where to Watch Toronto FC v New York Red Bulls: Callum Williams Calls MLS Clash on Apple TV
Football fans in the UK tuning into Major League Soccer this weekend have a treat in store with Toronto FC hosting New York Red Bulls at BMO Field. Kicking off at 17:00 UK time on Saturday 14 March 2026, this Eastern Conference showdown promises intensity, and while traditional British channels like ITV, BBC, Sky Sports or TNT Sports aren't carrying it, Apple TV delivers the action with lead commentator Callum Williams at the helm alongside co-commentator Calen Carr. Canadian viewers can catch it on TSN Canada 1 or TSN Canada 3, featuring Luke Wileman and Steven Caldwell.
Apple TV's coverage of MLS has become the go-to for global audiences since securing exclusive rights, offering high-quality streams with expert analysis. Callum Williams, a rising star in football commentary, brings his sharp insights from years covering the Premier League and EFL for Sky Sports, where he honed his craft calling matches for clubs like Newcastle United. His energetic style pairs perfectly with Calen Carr, a former MLS forward who played for the Chicago Fire and Philadelphia Union, amassing over 100 appearances and providing authentic player perspective on tactics and in-game decisions[1][2][3].
Across the border, TSN offers comprehensive Canadian coverage. Luke Wileman, TSN's veteran soccer voice, has narrated hundreds of MLS games since joining in 2015, previously working with BBC and beIN Sports on international fixtures. Teaming up is Steven Caldwell, the ex-Scottish defender who captained Burnley to Premier League promotion in 2009 and played for Newcastle United, Hibernian and others, bringing his defensive expertise to breakdowns of set pieces and duels[1][3].
This MLS regular season clash sees Toronto FC, currently 9th in the East with a 1-0-2 record and 3 points, aiming to leverage home advantage at BMO Field against a stronger New York Red Bulls side sitting 4th on 6 points from 2-0-1[2][3]. Toronto's recent form shows grit, including a 1-0 win over Cincinnati, but they've conceded 6 goals in three games. Key man Walker Zimmerman anchors defence amid fouls and recoveries, while Derrick Etienne leads scoring with 1 goal[4][5]. The Red Bulls boast Julian Hall with 3 goals and Ethan Horvath making 7 saves, though injuries like Mohammed Sofo's ankle issue could test depth[3][4].
Head-to-head history tilts heavily towards the visitors: New York Red Bulls hold 21 wins to Toronto's 6, with 11 draws. Recent encounters include a 1-1 draw in June 2025 and Red Bulls' 2-1 victory in March 2025[1][3]. Toronto coach heralds new signing Sargent as a boost, predicting the hosts 'will only get stronger' during their nine-game home stretch[1]. Odds favour over 2.5 goals at -127, reflecting attacking potential with New York's 27 shots on goal so far[3][4].
For UK viewers, Apple TV subscription is essential, streaming ad-free with multi-angle replays and stats overlays. FotMob and Sofascore apps provide live scores, H2H and lineups for free tracking[1][2]. Toronto fields likely a 4-3-3 with Luka Gavran in goal, Richie Laryea and Zane Monlouis key, while Red Bulls counter in similar shape led by Justin Che[1][5]. Expect a tactical battle, with Toronto's possession recoveries via Jonathan Osorio (24) challenging Red Bulls' 56.3% average[5][7].
