The UEFA Champions League Quarter Finals are almost here, and there are several ways you can check out Real Madrid vs. Arsenal in the US. On Tuesday, the 16th of April, 2025, the second leg of the Real Madrid vs. Arsenal UEFA Champions League Quarter Finals is starting at 8:00 PM BST / 3:00 PM ET. Arsenal itself has helpfully laid out a comprehensive list of viewing options for each country, including local TV channels and various apps.
Out of the six options available for the United States, the best way to see the Real Madrid vs. Arsenal match in the 2nd leg of the UEFA Champions League Quarter Finals is by watching it on Paramount+, which has its own free trial for seven days.
How to Watch the Champions League Quarter-Finals Online
Normally priced at $7.99 a month, Paramount+ is one of the best streaming services for sports available right now, since you can also watch NFL on CBS along with UEFA Champions League matches, a plethora of sports films, documentaries, and TV shows.
Nevertheless, if you don't want to use it any further after checking out this one mighty clash of a match, be sure to turn off the auto-renew on your trial so you're not charged after the week ends.
In the meantime, you'll be able to follow along with both pre- and post-match coverage for additional expert analysis of every UCL game. You can even watch match replays like the recent Atlético Madrid vs. Real Madrid or Aston Villa vs. Club Brugge.
Unfortunately for those who might have already used a free trial for Amazon Prime in the UK or Paramount+ in the US, respectively, doing so means you won't be able to have another on that same account. Luckily, a way to get around this is by using a VPN to change your location so you can access the free trial to the service in another country.
For example, if you use SurfShark or NordVPN to change your location from the UK to US, you'll then be able to bypass the geo-blockers and access the United States' version of Paramount+, sign up for its 7-day free trial, and be able to still watch Arsenal vs Real Madrid without any issue.
Most of the options we've listed above offer a free trial themselves. Still, even if you end up paying a bit extra for your ideal service, the investment in a good VPN is well worth it thanks to their various benefits—like accessing alternative international catalogues for other streaming services, improved online privacy, and better security against hackers when using public Wi-Fi.
However, if you're a major football fan trying to watch from elsewhere, there's at least one option available for anyone trying to see these two massive clubs face off.
How to Watch the Match in the UK
If you're in the UK, you can only watch Arsenal vs Real Madrid on Amazon Prime Video, for which you can sign up for a 30-day free trial right now, so you can enjoy the match without any charge. During the rest of the trial, you'll even have access to all the other Premier League content available on the service.
The All or Nothing: Arsenal documentary series is a particularly good one if you haven't checked it out already. Keep in mind that once you set the free trial, your account will be set to automatically renew into an £8.99 a month membership. Be sure to cancel your membership within the 30 days if you don't wish to pay.
On the other hand, if you end up enjoying Prime Video, there's also a £95 a year subscription model where you get more value for your money.
Also, remember that even if you're watching the match through a streaming service, watching live content like the Arsenal vs Real Madrid match means you'll need to have an active TV license.
