Silverware is at stake in this Le Classique clash in the Middle East, as Paris Saint-Germain takes on Marseille in the 2026 Trophée des Champions in Kuwait City.
This annual match traditionally sees the current Ligue 1 champions face off against the Coupe de France winners, but with PSG having completed a domestic double last season, last term’s Ligue 1 runner-up Marseille earns the right to contest the fixture.
Luis Enrique’s Parisians come into this showdown on a five-match winning streak across all competitions, while Marseille got 2026 off to a losing start with a 2-0 Ligue 1 defeat at home against Nantes over the weekend.
Paris Saint-Germain takes on Marseille on Thursday, Jan. 8, at the Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. AST local time in Kuwait City, making it a 1 p.m. ET or 10 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, a 6 p.m. BST start in the UK, a 7 p.m. CET kickoff in France and a 5 a.m. AEDT start in Australia early Friday.
How to watch PSG vs. Marseille in the US without cable
Thursday’s game is live on beIN Sports, which also holds the broadcast rights for Ligue 1 matches in the US.
There are several options for watching beIN, with a number of US satellite TV providers and live TV streaming platforms offering the network as part of their channel lineups, including Dish Network and Spectrum (the latter requiring a $7-a-month premium for the Sports View add-on).
If you’re a cord-cutter, there’s also a whole host of streaming platforms that carry beIN Sports.
With an excellent channel selection, easy-to-use interface and best-in-class cloud DVR, the $83 per month YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV replacements. In order to watch beIN Sports on the platform you’ll need its Sports Plus add-on, which costs an additional $11 per month. Read our YouTube TV review.
BeIN is available on Sling TV as part of its Sports Extra add-on for either Sling Orange or Sling Blue.
Its Orange and Blue monthly packages start at $46 per month, and you can combine them for a monthly rate of $61 ($60 in some regions), with Sports Extra costing an extra $11 a month. The Orange option nets you one stream, while Blue gives you three. It’s not as comprehensive or as easy to navigate as YouTube, but with a bit of work, including adding an antenna or an AirTV 2 DVR, it’s an unbeatable value. We’ll also add that the service offers local channels such as ABC and CBS in some regions where the monthly rate is $51.
It’s worth noting that Sling has recently introduced Day, Weekend and Week passes for Sling Orange, with prices starting from $5 for 24 hours’ worth of viewing. Read our Sling TV review.
There’s a lot to like about Fubo. In addition to beIN Sports, it offers a wide selection of channels, plus its sports focus makes it especially attractive to soccer fans, as well as NBA, NHL and MLB fans who live in an area served by one of Fubo’s RSNs. It starts at $85 a month. Read our Fubo review.
You can also get beIN content via beIN Sports Connect, the network’s standalone streaming platform. You can log in with your cable or streaming service credentials if your provider has beIN in the package. This allows you to stream live matches and other programming on various devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops and so on).
Make sure to check if beIN Sports is included in the specific package or plan you are considering, as it may be part of a sports bundle or require an additional subscription.
How to watch PSG vs. Marseille with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the French soccer action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions, ensuring you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.
