Spanish giants Barcelona will look to return to winning ways in the Champions League on Tuesday when they face a free Aston Villa team at Camp Nou.
Barça fell to their first defeat of this year’s competition for the last time, losing to defending champions Paris Saint-Germain 4-2. Hansi Flick’s side followed up that loss with a crushing defeat to rivals Real Madrid in El Clásico, but bounced back in style at the weekend with a comprehensive 6-1 drubbing of Alavés in La Liga on Saturday.
After a summer of many upheavals, today’s game meanwhile marks a good indicator of Aston Villa’s recent progress under Unai Emery. The Villains have responded well to losing a host of key players such as Morgan Rogers, Ezri Konsa, Youri Tielemans and Emiliano Martínez in the summer, winning all three of their UCL games so far against Club Brugge, Fenerbahçe and Viking.
Barcelona hosts Aston Villa on Tuesday, November 3, at the Camp Nou in Barcelona, with the kickoff 21.00 CEST local time in Spain. That makes it one 20:00 GMT start in the UK in a 3:00 PM ET or 12:00 PM PT Kickoff in the US and Canada. For soccer fans Down Under, it’s a 7am AEDT Starting in Australia on Wednesday.
How to watch every UEFA Champions League 2026-27 game with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the UCL action while you’re away from home, a VPN can help improve your privacy and security while streaming.
Virtual private networks encrypt your traffic and prevent your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the United States and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies that restrict VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you are connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms can block access when a VPN is detected, so it’s crucial if your streaming subscription allows VPN use.
