Can Bayern Munich win the Champions League again?

Last season, Bayern Munich became the first team in history to complete a perfect Champions League campaign, cruising to an incredible 11-0-0 finish and sealing a second European treble. The Bavarians humiliated Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, and Barcelona before triumphing 1:0 against a PSG side boasting the most expensive front three in football history.

Hansi Flick‘s men kicked off the new season without missing a beat, thrashing Atlético Madrid 4:0 to begin their title defense. Can anyone stop the Bavarians? Will Pep Guardiola stop overthinking his tactics and get Manchester City to a UCL final? Can Liverpool build on their incredible momentum under Jurgen Klopp and win a seventh European crown? We can’t wait to find out!

  1. Dear Sir or Madam,

    I would like to register for Live Stream on EUFA Champions League and EURO 2020, but i am live in Cambodia. Can I access it from here? Thanks

  2. A few questions for you 1 where should i set the VPN to get EPL coverage of matches I live in the UK. 2 DAZN is no good for me they say i cannot access EPL matches because i am in the UK. Does the same apply to the CBS and NBCSN ? If you can give me a little guidance i will be obliged.

  3. I have an Italian DAZN account and I have used your VPN to access Canadian DAZN; but since few weeks I am no more able to do it in fact every time I try to connect through Express VPN it appears a message that tells me DAZN isn’t available in my country. Is there a reason for this and can you let me go through this problem?

      1. The extension also does not work. The extension is the same as the app.
        Practically your VPN is useless now… but you continue to write that is possibile to watch Dazn Canada from Italy. I won’t renew the subscription.

    1. Hi Janne,

      Yes! Simply select the streaming method you want to follow above, then connect to the VPN before watching the game. If you’re watching in a web browser, please first connect to the VPN and make sure you have the ExpressVPN browser extension (https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/expressvpn-browser-extension/) activated. If you’re watching on a mobile device, please make sure you’re connected to the VPN and allow location access if prompted.

  8. Hi,

    What’s the best way to watch Champions League games free? I’m interested in getting your service but don’t want to pay extra for games.

    1. Hi Will,

      BT Sport is showing some of the games without requiring a subscription. Other ways to watch include the free trials on Fubo TV and Sling TV. However, you will need to input valid U.S. credit card details to use the free trial.

    1. Hi Jeremiah,

      Where would you like to stream from? Feel free to follow the guide above and let us know if you have any questions!

  9. Hi,
    Living in Asia so all champion league games are around 3am – do you have re-play service in your program, that way I can watch with my morning coffee…

  10. I am Telling You, It’s Barcelona’s Year. Fear the MSN. Visca el barca 😉 We will make history again by at least retaining the CL if not winning the treble back-to-back. Game’s ON!
