Liverpool vs Bayer Leverkusen live stream: How to watch Champions League game online

The Liverpool vs Bayer Leverkusen live stream has plenty of narrative to it as the Reds' Champions League-winning midfielder Xabi Alonso returns to Anfield for the first time as a manager, in the opposition dugout — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

One of only two Champions League still defending a 100% record in the revamped competition, Liverpool continue to excel under Arne Slot. With AC Milan, Bologna and RB Leipzig already overcome this term, the Reds have never lost at home to German opposition and face Leverkusen for the first time since they won a fifth European crown in 2005. Ibrahima Konate could miss out through injury, but Joe Gomez impressed at center-back in the come-from-behind defeat of Brighton at the weekend.

If the Reds had had their way, Xabi Alonso would be lining up in the home dugout for this one, but the former Liverpool midfielder chose to reject any overtures in favor of another season at Leverkusen. Unbeaten domestically last year in winning a league-and-cup double, die Werkself have started 2024/25 nearly as well, with an August loss to RB Leipzig their only defeat in all competitions. Top scorer Victor Boniface has eight goals in all competitions for the high-pressing unit, while Florian Wirtz seeks to become the third player aged 21 and under to score in their first three Champions League away fixtures.
