The return of the Champions League in 2024 means the knockout stages will be shown for the first time by TNT Sports, which replaced BT Sport in the UK and Republic of Ireland as a new home for sports coverage.
The service combines the content that was already provided by BT Sport and Eurosport, as well as discovery+ entertainment shows.
They hold viewing rights to all three UEFA club competitions – the Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League.

Many BT Sport users are familiar with streaming BT’s channels via a dedicated app. That app is being phased out and will end later in the 2023/24 football season, to be replaced by the discovery+ app on mobile, tablet and other connected devices.
TNT Sports offers the same package through Virgin Media, although its Box Office channel is available as a red-button channel when events become available, rather than a numbered channel.
