Where to watch Real Madrid vs Inter (September 8, 2026): Sky and NOW, the right packages

Real Madrid vs Inter kicks off on Tuesday, September 8, 2026 at 9:00 pm at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium in Madrid, for matchday one of the 2026/2027 Champions League league phase.

Where to watch Real Madrid vs Inter on TV and streaming

The match is broadcast exclusively on Sky Sport, on satellite channels and in streaming on Sky Go, and on NOW via the Sport Pass, which carries the same Sky Sport channels in streaming without needing a satellite dish.

Since it isn't the best Wednesday match of the round, Real Madrid vs Inter isn't part of Amazon Prime Video's exclusive package, which only broadcasts one match a week, always on Wednesday. So for this game you'll need a subscription that includes Sky Sport, either through Sky or through NOW.

Heads up: Sky Calcio alone isn't enough

It's a common mix-up: the Sky Calcio package does not include the Champions League. Sky Calcio carries Serie A Enilive (3 out of 10 matches per matchday), Serie C, and part of the Premier League and Bundesliga, but the European cups (Champions League, Europa League and Conference League) are broadcast exclusively on the Sky Sport channels.

So to watch Real Madrid vs Inter you need a package that includes Sky Sport, not Sky Calcio on its own.

The available Sky packages

Sky offers a few different combinations depending on whether you're only interested in the Champions League or in Serie A too:

• Sky TV + Sky Sport: the three European cups are on Sky Sport, for €24.99/month. Get the offer
• Sky TV + Sky Sport + Sky Calcio, if you also want Serie A: €29.99/month, online only. Get the offer
• Sky TV + Sky Calcio, online only for €15.99/month: keep in mind this package alone does not include the Champions League. Find out more

Promotional prices change often, so it's always worth checking the current offer on the official site before subscribing.

If you choose NOW

NOW gives you the same sports content as Sky through the Sport Pass, in streaming and without installing anything: it covers all the European cups (Champions League, Europa League and Conference League), Serie A Enilive, Serie C, the Premier League and the Bundesliga, plus the US Open, the ATP and WTA Tours, Wimbledon, Formula 1, MotoGP, the NBA and more.

The list price is €29.99 a month, renewing monthly with no commitment. NOW also often runs an annual deal, such as 12 months at the price of 8 for €19.99/month with a 12-month commitment (it then renews at the list price). If you're also interested in movies and TV shows, there's a combined pass that bundles Sport, Cinema and Entertainment.

Promotions change constantly, so always check the current conditions at the time you activate the subscription. Check out the NOW Sport Pass offer.

EasySubs helps you keep all your subscriptions in one place, including the renewal dates and auto-renewals of Sky and NOW, so you always know your total spend and can calmly decide what's actually worth keeping active.
