It was the final that many believed we were robbed of last season. Barcelona were electric in the Champions League, with their balance of high-line defending and free-flowing forward play making them one of the best teams we’ve seen in years. Yet, they were knocked out in the semi-finals by Inter Milan, and it felt as if we were denied a final to remember.

Of course, PSG went on to win that tournament, and they began their title defence in ruthless fashion, sweeping Atalanta aside 4-0. Meanwhile, Barça began their Champions League campaign with a Marcus Rashford-inspired 2-1 victory over Newcastle United — the Englishman will be hoping he can continue that form back at home.

The only disappointment is that injuries have prevented us from seeing some of the best players. PSG are missing Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, captain Marquinhos, and the star of their victory over Atalanta, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Barça will be without Gavi and Raphinha, but they do welcome the return of Lamine Yamal, who came off the bench to claim an assist on Saturday.

This isn't one to miss, so keep on reading to find out how you can watch Barcelona vs PSG in the 2025/26 Champions League.
