The UEFA Champions League (UCL) is one of the most prestigious tournaments in all of football. It determines who’s the best club in Europe and is the trophy every side covets.
Bayern Munich are the defending champions heading into the 2020/21 tournament, defeating Paris Saint-Germain in the final of last season’s coronavirus-impacted competition for their sixth title overall.
Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, Juventus, PSG, Chelsea and Atletico are among the big teams competing for this year’s crown. The tournament has been pushed back about a month due to last year’s delayed finish. The 2020/21 final will be at the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul, the original venue for the 2020 final before that was moved to Portugal.
In Germany, the rights to the 2020/21 Champions League tournament are split between DAZN and Sky. Our choice for best value and overall content is DAZN, which has a 30-day free trial.
DAZN is a bit of a trailblazer when it comes to sports streaming. It’s a growing service that is presently available in nine countries worldwide with big expansion plans set for later in 2020. The month-long free trial is a great way for users to test it out. After that, you can continue on for 11,99 € per month or 119,99 € for a discounted annual rate.
If you decide DAZN isn’t for you, then simply cancel at least 24 hours before your 30 days are up. DAZN has plenty of sport on offer, including the Bundesliga, NBA, MLB, Europa League, UFC and more. You can see the full list of sports available and an extensive DAZN guide here.
DAZN has an app available to download on iOS and Android devices plus Amazon’s Fire tablet, TV and stick. Other viewing options include Chromecast, a range of Smart TVs or PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
The tournament has several different preliminary and qualifying rounds, but the real fun begins in the group stage with 32 teams. Clubs are divided equally into eight different groups, with teams seeded before the draw. Each team plays its group opponents in a home and away round-robin format.
The group stage is traditionally played from September to December and is held over six match days. Teams from the same nations are also split up to ensure parity. After the group stage, the UCL progresses to the knockout phase, which usually begins in February and is contested by 16 clubs.
The 16 teams who finished as the top 2 in each group advance and play matches over 2 legs. Those who finished in third place in their group enter the UEFA Europa League. The knockout phase begins with the round of 16 and sees the 8 group winners seeded against the 8 runners-up.
At this point, teams still can’t be drawn against clubs from the same country or who were previously in their group. Then from the quarter-finals onwards, there are no restrictions on who will play each other through to the semi-finals and final.
The final will be held on 29 May, 2021 at Atatürk Olympic Stadium, Istanbul. This was the original venue for the 2020 final before it was moved to Estádio da Luz in Lisbon as last season’s tournament was completed in Portugal.
