How to read the Methstreams schedule and find a game fast

Methstreams has one job: show you which games are on and give each one a page with the stream links we can find for it. This guide goes through the parts of the site in the order you meet them, from the home page to the feed list on a game page, and explains the labels that are easy to misread the first time.

Start with a sport

The home page has one card per sport, in the same order as the top bar: NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB, boxing, MMA, F1 and, last, soccer, which opens a separate soccer schedule. Each card leads to that sport's page. Tennis, cricket, rugby and golf have smaller pages, linked from the line under the cards and from the footer.

A sport page always starts with today and runs seven days ahead. Each day is a block with the date on the left. Inside a day, games are grouped under their league, so the NBA sits apart from EuroLeague on the basketball page and college football apart from the NFL on Saturdays. The count at the top of the page tells you how many games are listed for the week and how many are live now.

What a row tells you

A row for a team game has both logos, both names, and the start time in the middle. Once the game starts, the middle switches to the score and the period or clock, and a small pulsing dot appears beside it. After the final whistle the score stays in place for the rest of the day.

Events without two sides, such as a Grand Prix session or a wrestling show, get a single title with the sport's icon. On the right of every row there is a button. It says Watch when we know feeds are up for that game, and Details when none are attached yet. Both open the game page; the word just tells you what you will find there.

On a narrow phone screen the team names shorten and each logo sits above its name, so a full row still fits at 320 pixels without scrolling sideways.

The times are yours

Every start time is written by the server in UTC. When the page loads, your browser converts it to your own time zone and adds the weekday if the game falls on a different day where you are. A reader in London and a reader in Los Angeles looking at the same Sunday night football game will see different times and possibly different days, and both are right.

If your browser blocks scripts, the times stay in UTC with "UTC" after them. Two dates are worth knowing this autumn: the UK moves its clocks back on Sunday, October 25, 2026, and the United States on Sunday, November 1, 2026. Between those dates the gap between London and New York is four hours instead of five, which is why a game you usually watch at 6 PM may show at 5 PM for one week.

Search when you know the team

The Search button in the top bar opens a box that covers yesterday, today and tomorrow across every sport. Start typing a team, a city or a fighter's name and the results narrow as you type. Each result shows the start time on your clock, or Live if the game is under way. Press the slash key on a keyboard to open it from anywhere on the page, and Escape to close it.

Inside a game page

The top of a game page is a scoreboard: both logos, names and records, the start time and the venue when we have it. It refreshes itself about once a minute during play, so you can leave the tab open and glance at the score.

Below it is the list of stream links. Each row has a channel name, a quality badge (HD or SD), a short note and sometimes a language. The order matters:

Tapping a row opens the player in a new tab. The game page stays open in the original tab, so if a stream stops you can switch back and pick the next row without searching again.

When there are no feeds yet

A game listed a few days ahead will usually have no feeds. Most channels go up in the half hour before the start, and some come a few minutes after it. The game page checks again by itself while it is open and adds rows as they appear. If a game has started and still shows nothing, the message on the page says so plainly.

Below the feeds

Further down a game page you will find an "Also on" list with other games from the same sport and day, and, when the listings include it, details such as recent form and the venue. Finished games keep their page for a few hours with the final score, then leave the schedule. An old link to a finished game shows a short "not on the schedule" page with a way back to the home page.

Reporting a problem

Under every feed list there is a Report button. It sends a short message straight to us with the game you were on, which is the quickest way to tell us that a row has stopped working or that a start time is wrong. For anything else, the contact page has a full form.
