The OGC Nice and Canal+is still no. The return match of the third preliminary round of the Champions League between Benfica and the Gym will still not be available on the antennas of the C1 usual broadcaster.

However, there is good news for Aiglons supporters. After a first leg broadcast on a paid platform, Solidsport, the second act will be visible in the clear, in this case on the local channels of BFM: BFM Nice Côte d'Azur, BFM Toulon Var, BFM Marseille Provence, BFM Alsace, BFM Normandie, BFM Lyon, etc. RMC Sport's Twitch and Youtube channels will also broadcast this match.

Nice on Canal+ in the next round… in case of qualification

“The OGC Nice has taken the necessary steps with the Benfica club, the holder of Portuguese rights (TVI) and the RMC-BFM group to allow all of its supporters to see the 2nd round of the third preliminary round of the Champions League”, Confirms the Riviera club in a press release.

The Canal+ group is holding TV rights of the Champions League, but the contract only begins from the Tour de Dams, the next round. This is why the OGC Nice struggled to find a diffuser for meetings. In the event of a feat against Benfica (2-0 out-of-go-round), the gym will see its matches against Fenerbahçe or Benfica broadcast on the Canal + group (go on August 19-20, return on August 26-27).
