The 2019 Asian Champions League has arrived, and the Melbourne Victory are one of two Sydney teams aiming to get themselves out of the group stage. This is The Roar’s handy guide to their matches, how to watch or stream them, the squad, and all the other key information you need to know before the tournament gets underway.
The Victory will begin their campaign on home soil, at AAMI Park against Daegu FC of South Korea. The match will be held at AAMI Park, with kick-off set for 7:30pm (AEDT).
The Victory have been placed in Group F, where they will play Daegu FC, Sanfrecce Hiroshima of Japan, and Guangzhou Evergrande of China in home and away matches.
The top two teams from each group then move onto the quarter-finals.
Every match featuring an Australian team at the 2019 Champions League will be available on Fox Sports, mainly through Channel 505. To confirm this information in the lead-up to every match, we suggest you check your electronic programme guide, or the Foxtel online TV guide.
