When does the Champions League start?

The Champions League officially returns on Friday 7th August 2020.

Several round of 16 ties are yet to be completed, with the second legs to be played in the opening weekend.

From then, the knockout round will be played with one leg, meaning the quarter-final teams will be just two games from a place in the final.

When is the Champions League final?

The competition will draw to a close with the Champions League final at 8pm on Sunday 23rd August.

The game will take place at Estadio da Luz, home to Portuguese giants SL Benfica.

Of course, it is expected that the game will be played behind closed doors, though by that time, small numbers of guests may be able to attend. We’ll have to wait and see.
