How to watch the UEFA Champions League Final 2025 live online or on a TV, including free options
The perfectly manicured grass at the pitch of Munich's Allianz Arena is ready for action thanks in part to its use of a hybrid system of natural and synthetic materials. Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan will have the perfect groundwork laid out for them as they face off in the UEFA Champions League Final today (Saturday, May 31, 2025).
Let's recap some team history and developments before we dive into how to watch the big game live.
Key stats for Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan
Inter has three European Champion Clubs' Cups to their name, which makes them the second most winning Serie A team in the competition's history. The team was victorious in 2010 and faced defeat in the final in 1967, 1972, and 2022.
Paris Saint-Germain has never taken home the trophy. In 2020, the organization came close, but were ultimately defeated by Bayern München in Lisbon. They are determined to upgrade their record during their second appearance in the final. Experts have given them slightly better odds to win it all, but it truly is anyone's game.
How the two teams reached the final
In the Champions League, 32 teams are divided into groups of four and face off six times against the other members of their group. The teams are ranked in a point system for wins and draws, with the top two advancing to a knockout round. The third place team is relegated to the Europa League. The remaining 16 teams battle it out for a place in the final.
Paris Saint-Germain had a bumpy road to the finals. They were ranked 15th in the league phase but managed to squeak by. Their impressive 10-0 win against Brest helped turn the tide in the knockout round. They went on to beat Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal to secure their spot.
Inter Milan had a smoother ride into the final. The organization finished fourth in the league phase and was only defeated once. They defeated Feyenoord, Bayern, and Barcelona to earn their place in the final.

Chiefs' Mahomes Offers Thoughts On Kelce's 'Last Ride'
Chiefs' Mahomes Offers Thoughts On Kelce's 'Last Ride' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is approaching the end of his NFL career after 12 glorious seasons, but according to Patrick Mahomes, you wouldn't know it. Advertisement With many thinking Kelce would hang up the cleats had the Chiefs been victorious in the Super Bowl against the Philadelphia Eagles, with Kansas City getting body slammed into the Caesars Superdome turf, Travis decided to have one more go around. It did look as if Father Time was catching up to Kelce last season, as he totaled his lowest yards total (823) and touchdowns (three) since his rookie season. But according to Mahomes, as the Chiefs' offseason gets underway, Kelce isn't showing any signs of slowing down. 'If it's the last ride, you would never know,' Mahomes said. 'The way he's talking about football, he's talking about working, and trying to be even better this year than he was last year. Doesn't seem like a guy that it's his last ride, like he's tired of the job, he's in here, he's working, and I know his body feels good, feels better than even last year. I think he's motivated to go out there and have an even better year than he had this last.' Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (87) celebrates with quarterback Patrick Mahomes (15) on Nov. 15, Medley-Imagn Images Coming off his "worst" season of his career, it is no wonder Kelce is motivated to improve. However, 823 yards is still nothing to sneeze at. Such has been the high level of Travis' play that we have become accustomed to that 823 yards is considered a down year. Advertisement With the Chiefs now looking to bounce back after the Super Bowl loss, the franchise doesn't have to look too far for motivation as the offseason gets underway. As for Kelce, as he enters Year 13 in the NFL, it appears he is still as spritely as ever as training camp comes into view. And if this is Kelce's last ride, then it's gotten off to a rather positive start. Related: Chiefs Chris Jones Ranked Among NFL's Best Interior Defensive Lineman Related: 'It Sucked!'
