Borussia Dortmund take on PSG in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal matchup today. It’s the first semifinal appearance for the German outfit since they advanced to the final in 2013, while the Parisians are here for the third time in five years.
The match is starting very soon, at 3:00 p.m. ET, and will be televised on CBS in the United States. However, if you don’t have cable or are just looking for a different way to watch, we’ve compiled all the different ways you can watch a free live stream of Dortmund vs PSG today.
The easiest way to watch a live stream of Dortmund vs PSG in the United States is on Paramount+. The “Essential” plan includes all Champions League and Europa League games (as well as other live sports and a huge library of on-demand TV shows and movies). It costs just $6 per month, but it comes with a free seven-day trial, so you can watch today’s match without having to pay anything.
If you’ve already used your Paramount+ trial and you’re looking for a different free option, we’ve got you covered. Amazon Prime subscribers (Prime comes with a 30-day free trial if you don’t have it) can sign up for Paramount+ through Prime Channels. It’s ultimately the exact same thing as the regular Paramount+, but it comes with a separate seven-day free trial, and you’ll watch the match on the Prime Video website or app instead.
You can also watch the match on a live-TV streaming service such as Fubo (“Pro” channel package), YouTube TV (“Base Plan”) or DirecTV Stream (“Entertainment” channel package). All three of these services include CBS (live in most markets), and all three come with a free trial.
A virtual private network (VPN) hides your IP address and connects you to a digital server in the United States or other country of your choosing. This lets you access location-restricted content from said country even if you’re physically located somewhere else. As such, you can use a VPN to watch the match on Paramount+ or another one of these streaming services even if you’re outside the US.
NordVPN doesn’t offer a free trial, but it’s cheap and it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. That’s where we would start, as it sits atop our lists of the best VPN services and the best VPN deals in 2024.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
