The 2015-2016 edition of the UEFA Champions League is about to start on 15th of September. The defending champions, FC Barcelona, will try to win the second title in a row, something no team has succeeded so far since the new format of the European Champions Clubs’ Cup was introduces in 1992.
Several clubs will fight for the trophy. Real Madrid is looking strong and the new coach, Rafa Benitez, is confident. It is probably the last chance of J.Guardiola to win UEFA Champions League with Bayern Munich. English teams also have their chances. Manchester City has a perfect start in Premier League, Chelsea made some important transfers this summer and Manchester United is simply one of the most important clubs in the World.
Let’s not forget Athletico Madrid, Paris-Saint Germain or Juventus. They have important arguments for getting to the final stages of the competition.
The 2016 UEFA Champions League Final will be played on 28th of May 2016 at the San Siro stadium in Milan, Italy.

TV Channels Broadcasting UEFA Champions League Live

In most cases the publicly available channels (free) show only one match per week (usually on Wednesdays), the one that is considered the best option, the most atractive. Paid channels (available in pay-per-view system or in extra packages from your ISP) show most of the matches on both Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

How to watch UEFA Champions League 2015-2016 online
A fair solution to watch Champions League online is to use SopCast, a free and simple application to watch TV channels on your computer or mobile device. Firstly, you need to download the latest version of Sopcast here. After the installation, start the application, login as Anouymous and start looking for the desired channel in the Live Channel tab. Most likely you will find a channel that covers the UEFA Champions League 2015-2016 games.
Many of the paid channels also stream the matches online. You may check the list of the paid channels and see if you find one in your location. If you do, you will need a paid subscription.
Some of these channels are geo-restricted, meaning that they are only available in certain locations. If you already have a subscription to a channel that broadcasts the matches live but you are in restricted location (for example you try to watch ESPN from UK) you may need a VPN or a SmartDNS service to unlock the access.
Enjoy!
