ESPN networks will televise 31 regular-season Major League Soccer matches in 2017, beginning Sunday, March 5 at 5 p.m. ET with Orlando City SC vs. New York City FC, the 2017 MLS season- opener for the two clubs and the first match at the new Orlando City Stadium. ESPN and ESPN DEPORTES will televise the Orlando-NYC FC clash, which will feature some of the league's top international stars such as Brazil's Kaká and Italy's Antonio Nocerino (Orlando), and Spain's David Villa and Italy's Andrea Pirlo (New York City).

Play-by-play commentators Adrian Healey, analyst Taylor Twellman and sideline reporter Julie Stewart-Binks will handle English-language commentaries. The 2017 season will be Stewart-Binks' first as sideline reporter for Major League Soccer action on ESPN after joining the network in December 2016.
