The Detroit Lions and New England Patriots play in Munich, Germany, on Sunday, Nov. 15, with an early kickoff for American viewers at 9:30 a.m. Eastern, which is 6:30 a.m. Pacific. FOX has the English-language broadcast and FOX Deportes the Spanish one, according to the Lions' schedule.
It is Detroit's first international game since 2015. The Lions are the designated home team at Allianz Arena, where soccer club FC Bayern Munich plays, and their opponent is a Patriots team that went 14-3 and represented the AFC in the Super Bowl last February, as the Lions' Munich game announcement points out.

How to watch or listen
A TV antenna picks up your local FOX station for free. Any cable, satellite or live TV streaming package that includes that station carries the game too, on the TV or in the provider's app.
FOX's own streaming service, FOX One, lists Patriots vs. Lions among this week's games and includes the local FOX station. Plans start at $19.99 a month after a three-day free trial, so a viewer who signs up Friday can watch Sunday's game before the first charge. Cancel before the trial ends if you only want the one game.
In New England, the radio call is on 98.5 The Sports Hub, according to the Patriots' schedule.
The league's Munich game page says tickets are not currently available. Fans who already bought them should get digital tickets by email no later than 72 hours before kickoff. That is 9:30 a.m. Eastern on Thursday, Nov. 12. The NFL uses all-in pricing for its international games this season, so the posted price includes fees.
