A new UEFA Champions League campaign kicks off in September with 32 teams dreaming of lifting the trophy on May 28, 2022 in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Chelsea enters the competition as the defending champion, but there are a host of teams that expect to challenge, including new powers such as PSG and Manchester City and traditional contenders such as Real Madrid, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Liverpool.
The competition kicks off with a group stage that will whittle the field down to 16 teams which advance to the knockout rounds consisting of two-leg, home-and-home series. The club that scores the most goals over the course of the two games advances to the next round. The final is a single match played at a neutral venue.
All the big matches through to the final will be available for soccer fans in Canada. All the details follow below:
