FC Barcelona vs. Royal Antwerp, this Tuesday, September 19, for the first matchday of Group H of the UEFA Champions League at the Monjuic Olympic Stadium. ‘Culés’ will kick off their Champions League run against Royal Antwerp at 3:00 p.m. ET on September 19th at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys. ‘Azulgranas’ was relegated to the Europa League in last year’s tournament. In subsequent Europa League play, they made it as far as the Group Stage but did not advance further. As for Royal Antwerp, they bowed out in the Group Stage, losing to AEK Athens by a score of 2-1. The official broadcast will be on the TV and streaming channels of CBS, TUDN USA, Univision Now, TUDN App. Paramount Plus and ViX.
The Spanish hosts are unbeaten this season after five rounds of La Liga and have scored 13 goals in the league. There were five different goalscorers including star striker Robert Lewandowski as they beat Real Betis in their most recent outing. Based on form and quality of the squad, the Group H opener should be a straightforward affair for the defending champions of the Spanish league.
Antwerp are fifth in the Belgian Pro League standings, three points behind current leaders Gent. They dealt with the challenge of AEK Athens in the Champions League play-offs to book their place in Group H. However, dealing with Barcelona will be a completely different ball game - any result other than a Barcelona win will be a huge shock.

The match could be the opportunity for Xavi Hernández to give 16-year-old Lamine Yamal his first minutes in the Champions League, which would make him the second-youngest player to debut in the continental competition.
The Barça winger would be a few days behind Youssoufa Moukoko, who made his debut in the Champions League at the age of 16 years and 18 days with Borussia Dortmund in the 2-1 victory over Zenit Saint Petersburg in December 2020.
Tuesday’s meeting will serve as the framework for the reunion of Xavi Hernández with his former teammate on the pitch Mark Van Bommel, current coach of Antwerp, which finished champion of the Belgian league last year after 66 years.
Antwerp will go to the Olympic Stadium after beating Westerlo 3-0 on Saturday, placing itself at the top of the Belgian championship.
