RB Leipzig vs PSV in Free DAZN Champions League Conference

RB Leipzig’s Champions League home match against PSV Eindhoven will be available free in Germany on Tuesday, 13 October, as DAZN opens its live conference coverage for a promotional evening.

Key takeaways

  • DAZN will stream the Champions League conference without charge from 18:00 for five and a half hours.
  • Viewers need a free DAZN account to access the promotion.
  • Leipzig, with David Raum and Antonio Nusa, host PSV at 21:00 on matchday two.
  • Bayern Munich’s simultaneous away fixture at Viking Stavanger remains exclusive to Prime Video’s paid service.

A brief free-to-air exception

Live Champions League football has largely sat behind subscription services in Germany since the 2018/19 season. The final is normally the only major exception.

Before that change, ZDF still showed selected midweek matches on free television. DAZN’s Tuesday offer is a one-night advertising initiative rather than a wider return of regular free-to-air coverage.

Leipzig in the conference window

Leipzig’s meeting with PSV is the only German-club match included in the free conference broadcast. Kick-off at the Red Bull Arena is scheduled for 21:00.

Bayern play in Norway at the same time, but their trip to Viking Stavanger will not be part of DAZN’s free stream. Prime Video holds that match behind its subscription service.
