The Champions League is back and the round of 16 second legs are coming up. On Tuesday, FC Bayern wants to eliminate FC Salzburg after a draw in the first leg. Inter Milan also meets Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool. With this overview, you won’t miss a beat.
Fans of the European football cup have to be prepared for a high bill in the new football year. Three subscriptions are required to have free choice in the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League, which start with the group stage this week.
What is there from the Champions League on free TV?
ZDF is allowed to show moving pictures of the premier class again. Until 2018, the broadcaster had shown one game per matchday for six years, now the second is allowed to broadcast the finals live and also highlights. According to ZDF, long summaries of the games of the German teams will be shown on a total of 14 match days under the name “Sportstudio UEFA Champions League”. The program also includes “excerpts and highlights from the other games on Tuesday and Wednesday”.
Where are the live games happening?
Sky no longer has the Champions League in its program, DAZN and Amazon have offered UEFA more money. This means that two subscriptions are still necessary in order not to miss anything, but they are cheaper compared to previous years. DAZN shows almost all games, the paid streaming service has purchased a package with a total of 121 live games and is also allowed to show conferences. The encounters between Inter Milan and Liverpool will also be shown on the streaming service on Tuesday.
The second leg between Bayern and Salzburg, on the other hand, will be played on Amazon Prime. The online retailer is new to the premier class and is making its Champions League debut after a short Bundesliga interlude. Amazon customers can watch the top game on Tuesday via the Prime Video offer. All other games are broadcast on DAZN. This also applies to the remaining Champions League games this week. While Manchester City already has more than one foot in the quarter-finals after beating Sporting Lisbon 5-0, the exciting continuation of the clash between Real and the star ensemble PSG is increasing in Madrid. Kick-off is on Wednesday evenings at 9 p.m.
Who moderates and comments?
DAZN hired Laura Wontorra from RTL as a moderator and added former Sky employees Michael Born and Holger Pfandt to the existing commentator team. Amazon mainly works with Sky staff: Jonas Friedrich is the commentator on Prime Video, Sebastian Hellmann moderates.
DAZN and Amazon have spared no expense or effort to hire prominent experts. The sports streaming service has extended the contract with ex-national player Sandro Wagner. Amazon has reactivated Matthias Sammer, who last worked on TV during Eurosport’s Bundesliga guest appearance. The team of experts also includes TV newcomer Mario Gomez.

What can fans see in pubs?
Fans should find out more in their local pubs beforehand, because restaurateurs need two contracts in the new season. Sky doesn’t own any rights but offers 16 live games in its deals with sports bars following a deal with Amazon. Pubs that also want to show their customers the other games need another contract with DAZN. According to the streaming service, it has not extended the expired cooperation agreement with Sky.
Who shows the Europa League matches?
RTL is the television home of the Europa League and the new Conference League with rights to 282 games. The games of the two competitions run on RTL, on the niche channel Nitro and on the in-house streaming service RTL+. At the start of the round of 16, Eintracht Frankfurt have to face Betis Sevilla on Wednesday evening at 18:45. Bayer Leverkusen only meets Atalanta Bergamo on Thursday. The game will kick off at 21:00. The game between RB Leipzig and Spartak Moscow was canceled due to the war in Ukraine. Experts include Karl-Heinz Riedle and Lukas Podolski, moderators are Laura Papendick and Anna Kraft.
What do the subscriptions cost?
DAZN significantly increased the price in February, to the annoyance of many sports fans. The streaming service costs EUR 29.99 per month. To see the premier class on Amazon Prime Video, you have to pay 7.99 euros per month. RTL + charges 4.99 euros per month for its offer. For a season pass, the fan at RTL + currently only has to transfer 9.98 euros. You can follow the entire KO round of the Europa and Conference League for four months. This offer is still available until February 28, 2022.
