How to watch UEFA Champions League in the United Arab Emirates

BeIN Sports has extended its exclusive UEFA Champions League rights in Asia and the Middle East and North African (MENA) regions for two years, including the full 2025-26 and 2026-27 seasons.

BeIN’s Champions League rights cover the following Asian countries: Algeria, Bahrain, Brunei, Cambodia, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Laos, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Tunisia, UAE, and Yemen.

In Indonesia and the Philippines, the beIN Sports deal is non-exclusive. This news comes as UEFA finalized its 2024-27 media rights cycle contracts. BeIN Sports has long been a broadcaster of UEFA club competitions, and they have consistently aired the UEFA Champions League on television and online in Asia and the Middle East. During this extended period (until 2026-27), beIN Sports linear channels and beIN Sports Connect are set to show all the Champions League matches live, with full replays, highlights, magazine shows, pre- and post-match analysis, interviews and more. BeIN’s TOD app also shows live Champions League games.

The Champions League on beIN Sports has historically been available in high definition, with streams distributed on various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs. Commentaries are expected to be in English in Asia, though the pay-TV service has regularly opted for an Arabic, English, and French combination in the MENA region over the years.
