Meanwhile, Arsenal and Manchester City’s fixtures against Real Madrid reached well over 4 million viewers.\n\n![A still from Prime Video's coverage of the Champions League, showing pundits behind a pitch-side desk with microphones](https://assets.aboutamazon.com/dims4/default/cb0c76a/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1404x914+0+0/resize/767x499!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fassets.aboutamazon.com%2F4d%2F99%2Ff83431274eacb0ad609ad7bba21f%2Fapv-ucl-036.png)\n\nAll of these matches surpassed the previous record live audience for Prime Video in the UK, set by Arsenal’s top-of-the-table clash with Manchester City in the Premier League back in February 2023. \n\n“These record audiences show how the reach and accessibility of Prime extends these huge European matches to even more fans,” said Alex Green, Managing Director of Prime Video Sport, International. “This is also a great credit to our talented production team who make these headline Tuesday matches a truly must-watch spectacle, with 90 minutes of pre-match coverage and a constant pitch-side presence that fans have really responded to. We are just getting started and will continue to innovate as we develop our coverage next season.”\n\n![Marriedtothegame.CatHarding](https://assets.aboutamazon.com/dims4/default/23b18f7/2147483647/strip/true/crop/2466x1644+0+0/resize/300x200!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fassets.aboutamazon.com%2Ffb%2F54%2F1f2bdfd04716ac902d93713df0b4%2Fmarriedtothegame-catharding.jpg)\n\n- [Watch the trailer for ‘Married To The Game' season 2, streaming now on Prime Video](https://www.aboutamazon.co.uk/news/entertainment/married-to-the-game-season-2-prime-video)\n\nThe UEFA Champions League is included with a Prime Membership which costs £8.99 per month or £95 per year.
