How to watch the Women’s Champions Leauge in Australia

All games have a home on the sports streaming service DAZN right now. This is kind of unexpected, as DAZN is usually a platform associated with boxing. In any case, this is the home of the UWCL for the moment, and plans start at $13.99 a month.
