What time does PSG vs. Atletico kick off?

Taking place at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, the venue for the 1994 World Cup final, the game will kick off at 12pm local time, but they are eight hours behind BST, so for a British audience, the match will begin at 8pm.

Where is PSG vs. Atletico being played?

The match will be played at the Rose Bowl, which will be familiar to many supporters of a certain vintage who remember the 1994 World Cup final, as this is where Brazil beat Italy on penalties to win their fourth title.

Given the extraordinary stadiums that have since been built across the USA though, this will not be used for next summer's World Cup, so this will be the only chance overseas fans get to witness the arena, and it will host a further five matches across the group stage.

How to watch PSG vs. Atletico in the UK

TV channels

Channel 5 have struck a deal with global rights holders DAZN to show 23 of the 63 matches across the tournament, but unfortunately this will not be one of them, so it will not be available on free-to-air television.

Online streaming

However, those hoping to catch the game are in luck, because it is still available for free online, as long as you subscribe to DAZN, who are showing every match on their global streaming platform throughout the tournament. 

Highlights

The DAZN app will be loaded with CWC content throughout the tournament, including highlights and reaction to each match, and will be made available shorty after the final whistle.

What is at stake for PSG and Atletico on matchday one?

As the two group favourites, PSG and Atletico will both be seeking to make a fast start, and avoid being left behind, with Botafogo and Seattle Sounders facing off later on in the evening.

PSG are the favourites, so if Atletico do fall to defeat, they will have to ensure they bounce back against group outsiders Seattle next week, while also hoping the Parisians and Botafogo take points off each other.
