Liverpool travel to the Stade Vélodrome to face Marseille in the Champions League on Wednesday 21st January 2026, with pressure mounting on manager Arne Slot after a run of four consecutive Premier League draws. A victory would ease speculation about Slot's future and boost Liverpool's chances of a top-eight finish, which guarantees a last-16 spot.
Marseille, under Roberto de Zerbi, have won their last two European matches and are on course for the knockout stages. The French side possess dangerous attackers and can expect a passionate home crowd to spur them on.
UK viewers can watch the match live on TNT Sports, available via BT Broadband, the 'Big Sport' package, or a discovery+ Premium monthly pass without a contract. Streaming is supported on smart TVs, laptops, smartphones, and tablets through the discovery+ app.
