Real Madrid v Inter Milan: kick-off time and TV channel for Champions League opener | OneFootball

Real Madrid host Inter Milan on Tuesday 8 September in a Champions League league-phase opener at the Santiago Bernabéu. Kick-off is at 21:00, live on Canal+ Foot.

As reported by L'Équipe, it is among the standout ties on the competition’s opening night, with both clubs eyeing PSG, the back-to-back holders.

Madrid aim to build on a La Liga start of three wins and one defeat, although they lost 1-0 to Real Betis on Friday. They must cope with a depleted midfield due to injuries and suspension, but Kylian Mbappé is available after scoring four league goals, despite missing a penalty on Friday.

Inter, runners-up in 2025, have opened Serie A with three wins in three, including a comeback 3-2 against Napoli on Saturday.

Head-to-head form favours Madrid, with Inter losing the last four Champions League meetings. The Nerazzurri’s most recent win over Madrid was in 1998.
