Why is the Champions League not on Prime Video tonight?
The streaming service will have one match live each round of Europe’s premier football competition. However, the picks will only be from games taking place on a Tuesday night – like yesterday (September 17).
Prime Video has announced it will show 17 matches live throughout the 2025/26 Champions League. It included Tottenham Hotspur’s game against Villarreal last night.
The next game to be live on the streamer will be Liverpool’s trip to Galatasaray in just under two week’s time. Fans will be able to catch the action from Turkey live on September 30 from 6.30pm.
