In the US, CBS Sports holds the English-language rights to the Champions League through the end of the 2029/30 season. That makes the setup simple: one streaming service shows every match.
Paramount+
Paramount+ streams every Champions League match live, from the league phase to the final, along with replays and CBS’s studio coverage. Its entry-level plan is enough for live football, so you don’t need the more expensive tier.
CBS and CBS Sports Network
A handful of the biggest matches, typically the final and selected knockout games, are also shown on CBS, which is free over the air with an antenna. Some matches air on CBS Sports Network, a cable channel.
In Spanish
Spanish-language rights belong to Univision / TUDN through 2026/27, with many matches shown on TV in Spanish.
Kick-off times in the US
Champions League matches kick off at 12:45pm or 3pm Eastern (9:45am or 12pm Pacific) on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, which makes them easy to watch during a lunch break on the West Coast and hard to watch at work on the East Coast. Match pages on KickoffTonight show the time in your local zone.
