Pluto TV streams CONMEBOL U-20 Libertadores free

For the first time, Pluto TV airs all 22 matches of the CONMEBOL U-20 Libertadores live and free. Flamengo hunts a third straight title; Palmeiras wants revenge.

Pluto TV, the world’s most widely distributed free streaming (FAST) service, will broadcast every match of the CONMEBOL U-20 Libertadores 2026 live and at no cost. The tournament takes place in Ecuador from March 7 to 22, featuring 22 games across the group stage and knockout rounds — all available without a subscription.

This marks the first time the competition appears on the platform’s lineup. To handle simultaneous kickoffs, Pluto TV will deploy two dedicated channels: Pluto TV Esportes and Pluto TV Esportes 2, activated during overlapping live windows.

Flamengo eyes the treble; Palmeiras seeks payback

Brazil enters the tournament with two powerhouse clubs. Flamengo arrives as back-to-back champions, having claimed the title in both 2024 and 2025, and are firmly targeting a historic third consecutive crown. Palmeiras return fueled by unfinished business — the São Paulo club reached the final of the last edition only to fall to Flamengo on penalties.
