Real Madrid vs VfB Stuttgart: Champions League match live stream

The wait is over. VfB Stuttgart is starting in the Champions League. Here’s how you can watch the match against Real Madrid live:

The long wait is over! On Tuesday (September 17th) the exciting Champions League chapter begins for VfB Stuttgart. It is a return after 15 years of absence. The last participation in the 2009/10 season took the White-Reds to the round of 16. Back then the Swabians had to admit defeat to FC Barcelona. After a draw in the first leg, the Catalans dominated the second leg with a 4-0 win. In the first match of the 2024/25 season, coach Sebastian Hoeneß’s team will once again face a Spanish opponent – Real Madrid.

VfB Stuttgart will play at Real Madrid in the Champions League

On Tuesday the time has come: VfB Stuttgart will face Real Madrid, the record winner and current defending champion of the Champions League. For many players and coaches, Hoeneß has fulfilled a dream. Before the draw for the Champions League phase, the Stuttgart team wanted an away game in Madrid – at the Bernabéu Stadium.

Neither team had an ideal start to the league competitions. Real Madrid only won three of their first five games in La Liga. The Madrilenians drew twice – against RCD Mallorca and UD Las Palmas. VfB Stuttgart started the Bundesliga season with a defeat against SC Freiburg and only managed a draw in their home game against 1. FSV Mainz 05 a week later. Most recently, however, the Swabians recorded a 3-1 victory at Borussia Mönchengladbach.
