Barcelona need win vs FC Copenhagen — kick-off time and how to watch

According to Goal, Barcelona will host FC Copenhagen at Spotify Camp Nou on 28 Jan 2026 in a Champions League group game, and the Spanish side need a win to have any realistic chance of finishing in the top eight for automatic qualification to the Round of 16.

Kick-off is scheduled for 28 Jan 2026 at 15:00 EST and 20:00 GMT. English-language broadcasters listed include Paramount+ (USA), Stan Sport (Australia), Fubo Canada, JioStar (India), SuperSport (South / Sub‑Saharan Africa), beIN Sports Malaysia and beIN Sports MENA (Middle East). Barcelona sit ninth with 13 points from seven matches and have won their last two games and 10 consecutive home matches; Copenhagen are 26th with eight points, are unbeaten in their last two competitive matches and need a win plus favourable results elsewhere to have a shot at a playoff spot.

Injury and suspension notes: Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong is suspended, Pedri, Gavi and Andreas Christensen are injured, and Ferran Torres is a doubt; Copenhagen's Thomas Delaney is suspended while Magnus Mattsson and Rodrigo Huescas are injured. A draw or loss would almost certainly leave Barcelona outside the top eight and force a knockout playoff, while a Copenhagen defeat would end their European campaign.
