This week's Champions League fixtures

There are two massive Champions League games to enjoy this week. First up it's a re-run of Group F as PSG welcomes Borussia Dortmund to the Parc des Princes. Dortmund will take a slender 1-0 lead to Paris, but PSG have the firepower to overcome that small margin. Afterward, Real Madrid face Bayern Munich in a tie that is currently all square after a 2-2 draw in the first leg, and either side could progress. 

Champions League live streams around the world

How to watch Champions League live streams of every game

Every Champions League 23/24 game will be streamed live online somewhere in the world. The trick is in finding out where.

In the U.K., for example, all 125 games in the Champions League 23/24 group stages and knockout rounds will be streamed live on TNT Sports.

That's good news wherever you are because a VPN — or virtual private network — will let you tune into U.K. coverage from anywhere on the planet. And the same goes for every other country. So, if you're a Brit on vacation in the U.S., you'll be able to use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live on your usual services.

Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can check it out without having to sign up for a long-term subscription.

Speed, security and simplicity combine to make ExpressVPN our favorite VPN service. In our testing, we were impressed by its fast connection times and by its ability to access more than 3,000 services in 160 locations across 94 countries. A 30-day money-back guarantee is another bonus.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Paramount Plus or another service and watch the game.
