When and where to see Athletic Club v Barça

FC Barcelona begin their bid to win yet another Liga title this Friday with a trip to Bilbao.

On this page you will find the kick-off times in a number of major cities from America to Australasia, plus the TV channels that hold the right to show La Liga games this season. We cannot guarantee that these channels will be showing the game (but they usually do!) so make sure you check their websites and local TV listings.

Note that at the time of writing there is no deal to show La Liga games in the UK and Ireland. For the sake our fans up there, hopefully something will get sorted soon!

If you can’t see the game for whatever reason, remember you can listen to live English commentary on Radio Barça. The link will appear in our Match Center shortly before kick-off, where you will also be able to enjoy minute by minute text and pictures from the game.

Not forgetting, of course, all our official websites and social networks in ten different languages:

Catalan: @fcbarcelona_cat & www.fcbarcelona.cat
