Champions League Final: How To Watch Manchester City Vs Chelsea For Free

The all English Champions League final between Manchester City and Chelsea FC has been scheduled for Saturday.

The final is coming up a few years after an all English Champions League final between Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur back in 2019 at the Metropolitano Stadium, Madrid.

The first time Chelsea lifted the trophy was in 2012 beating Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, Munich.

But City is looking forward to winning their maiden Champions League trophy.

Pep Guardiola, City coach, will lead his team to a possible history for the club after he achieved the feat twice at FC Barcelona.

For the Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel, he is hoping to lift his first and the second for his club.

The final was moved to Estadio do Dragao, Porto in Portugal from  Ataturk Olympic Stadium, Istanbul  after Turkey was placed on the red list due to Covid-19.

In Nigeria, the time for the match is by 8pm or 20:00GMT.
