As the official home of the UEFA Women`s Champions League, CBS Sports is significantly expanding its coverage in its inaugural season as the exclusive English-language broadcaster of the tournament. The 2025-26 campaign is set to commence on Tuesday, October 7, with all matches streaming on Paramount+ and select games also broadcast on CBS Sports Network and CBS Sports Golazo Network.
Among CBS Sports` pioneering initiatives in women`s soccer coverage is the introduction of the “UEFA Women`s Champions League Today” studio show. This program will serve as the cornerstone of the competition`s broadcasts, featuring a fresh lineup of studio talent, including former FIFA Women`s World Cup and Super League champions. Host Hannah Cash will helm the studio discussions alongside a panel of expert analysts with top-tier professional experience: Jen Beattie, Janelly Farias, Darian Jenkins, Kelley O`Hara, and Ali Riley.
The “UEFA Women`s Champions League Today” program will feature pre- and post-match studio segments broadcast from its Stamford, CT studio, complemented by live reports from Europe throughout the season. Chris Wittyngham is set to handle play-by-play commentary for matches, joined by co-analysts Jenkins and Beattie. Christina Unkel will serve as CBS Sports` rules analyst, while Anita Jones will deliver live pitchside reports.
Jen Calhoun and Adriana Tonelli are the Producers for CBS Sports` UEFA Women`s Champions League coverage. David Berson holds the position of President and CEO of CBS Sports. Harold Bryant serves as Executive Producer and Executive Vice President, Production, for CBS Sports, while Pete Radovich is the network`s Coordinating Producer for all soccer broadcasts.
CBS Sports recently unveiled a broadcast partnership with the UWCL, extending through 2030. The updated tournament structure will see 18 clubs compete in the initial league phase, followed by a newly introduced knockout phase playoff round, ultimately culminating in the UEFA Women`s Champions League final.
The integration of the UWCL further enriches CBS Sports` women`s soccer portfolio. Paramount+ serves as the exclusive platform for the NWSL Championship and a selection of NWSL regular season matches, along with the Concacaf W Champions Cup and the Concacaf W Gold Cup. Additionally, various women`s Nations League matches and European friendly games are accessible across other CBS platforms.
Fans can tune in to the newly expanded coverage starting October 7, with Arsenal`s opening match against OL Lyonnes. This game marks the beginning of the journey for 18 European clubs vying for the final, which will be held at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo, Norway.
