About 2023-24 UEFA Champions League Season
Fifty-three of the 55 UEFA member associations will send teams to the Champions League this year. The only exceptions will be Lichtenstein, which does not organize any domestic soccer leagues, and Russia, which is banned from the competition thanks to its invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
Live pre- and post-match coverage, along with halftime duties will be handled once again by the “UEFA Champions League Today” crew, consisting of host Kate Abdo and analysts Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards. Schmeichel, Guillem Balagué, and Anita Jones will handle on-site reporting throughout the season.
Fans can also find UEFA Champions League analysis and coverage on Golazo Network, the free soccer streaming channel available with a subscription to Paramount+ or Pluto TV. Nico Cantor hosts “The Golazo Show” on the network, a whip-around style program that shows every goal from every Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Europa Conference League match. Golazo Network also offers studio programming like “Morning Footy,” “Box 2 Box” and its newest show “Kickin’ It,” which debuts Sept. 20. Select games in the 2023-24 UEFA Champions League season will appear simultaneously on CBS Sports Network.
