Champions League Soccer: Livestream Every 2026-27 Match From Anywhere - CNET

UEFA Champions League returns for the 2026-27 season with PSG defending its title after a penalty shoot-out win over Arsenal in last year’s final in Budapest. The competition features 189 matches and keeps the 36-team league format introduced in 2024. Each club plays eight opponents—four at home and four away—in the league stage; the top eight advance directly to the round of 16, while teams finishing ninth through 24th enter a playoff round. League-phase games begin Tuesday, Sept. 8, and the final is scheduled for Saturday, June 5, 2027, at Estadio Metropolitano in Madrid. In the US, Paramount Plus holds English-language rights for every match.
