Is Liverpool vs Leipzig on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Champions League fixture | OneFootball

Liverpool travel to Leipzig as they look to maintain their flawless start to the new-look Champions League campaign.

Arne Slot’s side came through one of the biggest challenges of their season so far, beating Chelsea 2-1 to remain top of the Premier League table, one point above defending champions Manchester City.

Curtis Jones starred in the centre of midfield, and Mohamed Salah was on target, but the Reds will want to maintain that same form on the road in Leipzig.

Leipzig are still unbeaten in the Bundesliga this season and go into the match second in the table to Bayern Munich only on goal difference. But in Europe, they have lost both their matches, to Atletico Madrid and Juventus. The match will have an added interest after former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp committed to becoming Red Bull’s head of global soccer, although he will not take up the post until January.

RB Leipzig vs Liverpool will kick off at 8pm BST (9pm CEST) at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, Germany.

The match will be shown live in the UK on Discovery+ TNT Sports 1 with coverage starting at 7pm BST. Subscribers can also watch the match via the app and website.
