The new one Champions League has reached the halfway point and continues with the fourth of the eight days of the first phase. After the draw last August 29th, the 36 clubs taking part in the continent’s top football competition continue to compete, with the new round scheduled for the matchdays Tuesday 5 and Wednesday 6 Novemberin the tournament that was reborn with a completely new format: single group, more matches and more participating teams.
Sky will be the absolute protagonist, with the broadcast of all the matches exclusively, with the exception of the 18 matches which Amazon Prime Video will broadcast throughout the season: the best match on Wednesday evening (the super match at San Siro between Inter and Arsenal is scheduled for this round).
Champions League match free to air: Sky’s strategy
And the free-to-air matches? With the exit of Mediasetwhich in the 2021-2024 cycle broadcast a live match for each round on Canale 5, Sky has decided to review the strategy on free matches. Comcast’s pay-TV has opted to offer all the matches of the Italian teams to its subscribers, instead broadcasting on TV8 the best match between foreign big names for each shift.
The free-to-air Champions League matches will therefore not disappear from the schedules, but to follow the Italian teams – Inter, Juventus, Milan, Atalanta and Bologna – viewers will necessarily have to subscribe to Sky Sport ea Prime Video.
Champions League game clear: the choice for the fourth round
So which challenge was the choice for the fourth free-to-air match of this first phase? The response came directly from TV8, which published a dedicated post on its social channels: «An unmissable match between two big names in European football! Tv8 Champions Night returns on Wednesday from 8.20pm with the UEFA Champions League match between Paris Saint-Germain e Atletico Madrid and at midnight don’t miss Tv8 Gialappas Night LIVE on Tv8».
The meeting PSG-Atletico Madrid – a truly high-level challenge – will also be visible for free in streaming on the TV8 website and will allow fans to see two of the accredited teams at work to get to the end of the competition.
