Watch Champions League Semifinal: Livestream Real Madrid vs. Bayern Munich From Anywhere – CNET
Last Tuesday’s first leg in Munich saw Vinicius Jr. score twice to earn Real a 2-2 draw in a pulsating clash at the Allianz Arena.
Los Blancos come into this game having secured a record 36th La Liga title, following their 3-0 home win over Cadiz on Saturday. Bayern Munich, meanwhile, lost 3-1 to Stuttgart, the latest defeat in what’s been a hugely disappointing domestic campaign.
A Champions League triumph over Real would nevertheless allow outgoing boss Thomas Tuchel to end his tenure on a high, while also drawing Bayern and England striker Harry Kane one step closer to finally ending his career-long trophy drought.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services for watching every game wherever you are in the world.
ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It’s normally $13 a month, and you can sign up for ExpressVPN and save 35% — the equivalent of $8.32 a month — if you get an annual subscription.
Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Paramount Plus has two main subscription plans in the US: Essential for $6 a month and Premium for $12 a month. Both offer coverage of the Champions League.
The cheaper Essential option has ads for on-demand streaming. It also lacks live CBS feeds and the ability to download shows to watch offline later. Newcomers can take advantage of a 30-day free trial, while students may qualify for a 25% discount. Black Friday savings are also still available, though we don’t know how long for.

Quick tips for streaming UEFA Champions League matches using a VPN
- With four variables at play (your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN), your experience and success when streaming Champions League games may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs including Roku don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
- All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main sites for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- Remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We recommend Brave.
