It's time for the Copa Libertadores final live stream! Similar to the Champions League that dominates European football, the prize that every club eyes in South America is the Copa Libertadores. This year's final is an all Brazilian affair, providing a global audience to see two teams battle for a trophy. And there are plenty ways to watch the Copa Libertadores final, if you know where to look.

This year's final pits Santos, which has lifted the cup three times, against Palmeiras, which last won the Copa Libertadores in 1999. Santos is less than 50 miles from Palmeiras' home base in Sao Paulo, and the two sides regularly face off in the Clássico da Saudade. This is the first time that Palmeiras and Santos have squared off in a Copa Libertadores final.

Whether you're a big fan of South American football or you're simply curious to see the atmosphere around this year's final as it's played in a near-empty Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, here's how to live stream the Copa Libertadores final this weekend.
