Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea will aim to get back to winning ways on Thursday as they take on Panathinaikos in Athens in this Europa Conference League Gameweek 2 clash.
Chelsea will be looking to pick themselves up the disappointment of their narrow 2-1 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield at the weekend in the Premier League. Having beaten Gent 4-2 in the opening matchday without the likes of Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer, Maresca is likely to once again field a much-rotated squad for this fixture.
They face a Panathinaikos side coming to terms with the tragic loss of their English defender, George Baldock, who died earlier this month. The hosts currently sit sixth in the Greek Super League and played out a 1-1 draw against Borac in their last Conference League match.
Panathinaikos take on Chelsea on Thursday, Oct. 23, at Athens Olympic Stadium, with kickoff set for 7:45 p.m. EEST local time in Greece, which makes it a 5:45 p.m. BST start in the UK, a 12:45 p.m. ET or 9:45 a.m. PT kick-off in the US and Canada, and a 3:45 a.m. AEST start in Australia early on Friday morning.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the match as it happens, wherever you are in the world.
American soccer fans can stream every fixture of this season’s tournament via Paramount Plus, which has exclusive live English-language broadcast rights in the US for the UEFA Conference League.
Paramount Plus has two main subscription plans in the US: Essential for $8 per month and Premium for $13 per month. Both offer coverage of the UEFA Conference League as well as the Champions League and the Europa League.
The cheaper Essential option has ads for on-demand streaming and lacks live CBS feeds as well as the ability to download shows to watch offline later. Newcomers to the service can take advantage of a 30-day free trial, while students may qualify for a 25% discount.

If you find yourself unable to view UEFA Conference League matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It’s normally $13 a month, but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100 you’ll get three months free and save 49%. That’s the equivalent of $6.67 a month with code SPECIALDEAL, which should be automatically applied.
Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
