Aston Villa's pre-season continues with a high-profile friendly against Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich on Friday, with kick-off set for 8pm local time in Hong Kong, which is 1pm BST for UK viewers.
Venue and broadcast details
The match, branded as the Audi Football Summit, will be held at the newly built Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong. UK fans can watch the game live via VillaTV, the club's streaming platform, which requires an active subscription or a one-off pre-season match pass purchased from the official website.
Radio and previous meetings
Dedicated national radio coverage is unlikely, but VillaTV typically provides live audio commentary. Local stations like BBC Radio WM may offer periodic updates, though full terrestrial broadcasts are rare for overseas friendlies.
Aston Villa holds a flawless competitive record against Bayern Munich, dating back to their historic 1-0 win in the 1982 European Cup final. The teams met again in October 2024, when a late Jhon Durán goal secured another 1-0 victory for Villa in the UEFA Champions League.
