Champions League preview

The UEFA Champions League is back, with the continent’s best football clubs set to battle it out over the next eight-and-a-half months to see who will be crowned the kings of Europe at Wembley next June.

Manchester City came into this year’s tournament as champions and are immediate favorites to repeat the feat this time around. The likes of Bayern Munich, Barcelona and 14-time champs Real Madrid are the teams most likely to stop them.

There’ll be six rounds, from now until Christmas, to see who will proceed to the last 16 (see full schedule below), with all eyes on ‘pool of death’ Group F. Newcastle United are joined by European titans AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund, with the now Neymar-and-Messi-less Paris Saint-Germain still desperate to win the competition that they have so far been unable to buy.

Barcelona already looks in formidable form, dispatching Antwerp 5-0 in their opening game. While Manchester City went a shock goal down against Serbia’s Red Star Belgrade, before coming back to win comfortably. And we already have a Champions League memory to savor, when Lazio goalkeeper Ivan Provedel scored an injury-time equalizer against Atlético Madrid.

The rollercoaster starts again and in this guide, you’ll discover all you need to know about how to watch Champions League live streams – including places that broadcast matches absolutely FREE! We also have details of upcoming fixtures, groups and next year’s final.

Galatasaray vs Copenhagen (5.45 pm)
Real Madrid vs. Union Berlin (5.45 pm)
Bayern vs. Man United (8 pm) – FREE on VM Player (IRE)
Sevilla vs Lens (8 pm)
Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven (8pm)
Braga vs Napoli (8 pm)
Benfica vs Salzburg (8pm) – FREE on Servus (OST)

In pretty much every country around the world, Champions League soccer is behind a paywall. But that’s not the case for lucky football fans in Ireland and Austria, where selected games are shown for FREE every game week.

In Ireland, they’ll be shown on free-to-air channels and on its easy-to-use streamers RTÉ Player and Virgin Media Player.

This week’s games are Feyenoord vs. Celtic on Tuesday (RTÉ2) and Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United on Wednesday (Virgin Media Two), both at 8 pm local time.

Similarly, Austrians will be able to watch via ServusTV, with commentary of games in German. Unsurprisingly, it’s slated to show the Benfica vs. Salzburg game this week.

And if you happen to be out of Ireland or Austria this week but still want to watch your domestic streams, you can use a VPN to make sure that you can still watch as you would at home. There’s more information on how to further down this guide.

How to watch the Champions League: live stream soccer in the US without cable

Soccer fans can watch every single Champions League game on the Paramount Plus streaming service in the US.

A subscription to Paramount Plus is available from just $5.99 a month for its ad-supported Essential plan, or $11.99 per month for its ad-free tier.

If you’re planning to tune into the whole season of UCL soccer, though, there’s a limited-time offer that’s well worth considering. Until September 20, the platform is running a better than half-price offer on its annual plans, meaning you can sign up for an effective $2.50 a month – so $30 total for that Essential plan or $60 to get rid of the ads.

The service also offers a free 7-day trial for new customers as standard.

Outside of the US? Use a VPN to watch Paramount+ from abroad while you’re away from home.

You can watch through a web browser or on the Paramount Plus app, which is available on most smart devices.

Alongside the UCL, Paramount Plus has live broadcast rights for Serie A and Europa League soccer, as well as a host of other sports. It’s also jam-packed with TV shows.

Some Champions League games are also being shown on CBS, which is available on a streaming-only basis via FuboTV from $74.99 a month after a 7-day FREE trial. This week’s games are Lazio vs Atlético Madrid on Tuesday and Real Sociedad vs Inter Milan on Wednesday, both at 3pm ET / 12pm PT.

How to watch Champions League football from outside your country

We’ve set out how you can live stream Champions League football in a number of countries around the world. However, if you’re away travelling, you probably won’t be able to watch the UCL like you normally would at home. This is the result of geo-blocking – best understood as digital borders that restrict certain services and content to specific parts of the world.

A good streaming VPN can let you get around these digital borders, while also offering robust protection from cybercriminals and government snooping. They’re also very easy to use.

When is the 2023/24 Champions League final?

Wembley Stadium in London will host this season’s UEFA Champions League final.

The 2023/24 Champions League final will take place on Saturday, June 1 2024.

The last time England’s national stadium was last used for the UCL final was for an all-German affair when Bayern Munich beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the 2012/13 tournament.

Predictions: Who will win the 2023/24 Champions League?

Winning back-to-back titles is far from easy – in fact, only Real Madrid have taken home consecutive trophies since the competition changed name from the European Cup in 1992. But Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City will be shooting to do exactly that this season after their 1-0 win in last year’s final against Inter, and they’re heavily tipped to succeed.

The hottest competition will come from the usual suspects. Champions of their respective domestic leagues, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Napoli will be expecting to go deep. And when it comes to the Champions League, you’d be a fool to bet against 14-time champs Real Madrid.

The likes of Arsenal, Inter Milan and PSG were also among the bookies favorites at the outset of the tournament, with Benfica, Sevilla and RB Leipzig the outsiders most fancied to cause an upset.

Who won the Champions League last year?

After 15 years and over a billion pounds, the grand Manchester City plan finally came to fruition.

City didn’t lose a single game on their way to the final at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul last June, easing their way to convincing wins over RB Leipzig, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in the knockout stages. The awesome Erling Haaland top scored with 12 goals for the free-scoring Citizens.

Pep Guardiola’s men had a tougher time in the final against stubborn Inter Milan, but a second-half goal from Rodri was enough to secure victory and the treble.
