Fox to broadcast UEFA Champions League games on Facebook in 2017-18 season

As Fox enters its final season of broadcasting the UEFA Champions League before Turner takes over the rights, the competition’s longtime rights-holder is going out with a bang.

On Tuesday, Fox announced a partnership with Facebook to broadcast a slate of Champions League games on the behemoth social networking platform during the 2017-18 season, free of charge.

Games will be carried in English and Spanish through the Fox Sports and Fox Deportes pages, respectively.

The package of games will feature two on each group-stage match day, which encompasses a Tuesday and a Wednesday.
