The final league stage fixtures of the Champions League will be played simultaneously on Wednesday, 28 January. All 18 games will kick-off at 20:00 GMT because it is the end of the competition's league stage in the new format - similar to the final day of the Premier League. The current Champions League fixture schedule was brought in when the new league phase format began in the 2024-25 season. It also ensures that the teams furthest away in Europe are playing away to keep the time zone difference minimal. It is a similar case for Azerbaijani club Qarabag, who are playing away at Liverpool.
