You can watch the UEFA Champions League through official broadcasters and streaming platforms that vary by country, with some offering free-to-air matches (often the final) and others requiring a subscription.

Key options by region

United States

  • Most 2025–26 Champions League matches stream on Paramount+ , which holds the main English‑language rights in the US.
  • Select games also appear on CBS Sports Network and the CBS Sports Golazo Network , especially on busy matchdays.
  • Spanish‑language coverage is typically carried by ViX and other Univision/TUDN outlets for certain fixtures.

United Kingdom & Ireland

  • Live Champions League football is shown primarily by TNT Sports (formerly BT Sport) during the 2025/26 season.
  • Amazon Prime Video has a package of matches, including some first‑pick Tuesday games in the UK.
  • Highlights and clips are often available via UK sports broadcasters such as Sky Sports ’ digital platforms, though not usually full live games.

Europe and worldwide

  • UEFA maintains a country‑by‑country list of official broadcast partners for the Champions League; fans can check their country on UEFA’s site to see which TV channels and streaming services are licensed.
  • In many European countries, national pay‑TV or streaming providers (for example DAZN, local sports networks, or telecom operators) carry most matches, sometimes alongside a free‑to‑air partner for big games like the final.

Legal free and low‑cost options

  • Some territories classify the Champions League final as a major event that must be available free‑to‑air, so a local broadcast network may show it without extra cost.
  • Occasionally, streaming platforms offer free trials (for example, new‑user trials on Paramount+ or similar services), which can cover parts of the league phase or knockout rounds if timed well.

How to quickly find the right channel where you live

  1. Go to UEFA’s “Where to watch the Champions League” page and select your country from the dropdown; it lists all official TV and streaming partners.
  1. Cross‑check the next matchday on a schedule site (such as ESPN’s Champions League schedule) to see which specific channel or app is carrying each fixture.
  1. If you prefer streaming only, look for the listed platform in your country (for example Paramount+, DAZN, Amazon Prime Video, or a local telecom app) and verify that it includes Champions League in its sports package.
