England
Premier League
Current champion: Manchester City
The fierce competition in the Premier League is what makes it one of the world’s most exciting leagues. This season’s title race looks wide open—Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool all have a decent shot at dethroning the current champion, Manchester City. With Mikel Arteta’s young Arsenal side just missing out on the title last season and firing on all cylinders, there’s a genuine title race on this year!
FA Cup
Current champion: Manchester City
England’s top knockout competition never fails to entertain, with several underdogs beating the more prominent teams at various stages.
Carabao Cup (EFL Cup)
Current champion: Manchester United
The Carabao Cup (EFL Cup) represents another excellent knockout competition and chance for silverware for teams across England.
Germany
Bundesliga
Current champion: Bayern Munich
Can anyone beat Bayern Munich to lift the Meisterschale? It’s hard to look past the German champions, but Borussia Dortmund is lethal on its day, while the likes of RB Leipzig are also one of Germany’s best attacking teams.
DFB-Pokal
Current champion: RB Leipzig
Bayern Munich is naturally the favorite for the German domestic knockout cup. Still, Bayern Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt have reached the finals in recent years—and the current champion is RB Leipzig, who beat Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in the 2023 final to win its second DFB-Pokal title.
Italy
Serie A
Current champions: Napoli
The Italians are known for their flair and passion, and Serie A is no different this season. Napoli won its first Serie A title in 33 years, ending years of stagnation since the glamorous Maradona era. But Massimiliano Allegri’s Juventus, Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma and Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan, and Stefano Pioli’s AC Milan all have eyes on the title.
Coppa Italia
Current champions: Inter Milan
Inter Milan may not have won the Serie A title, but it did secure the Coppa Italia. Juventus is the competition’s most successful club with 14 wins.
Spain
Copa del Rey
Current champions: Real Madrid
Real Madrid beat Osasuna 2-1 to claim its 20th Copa del Rey title. The beauty of the domestic cup is that there’s always a chance for a plucky underdog to create an upset and take all the glory, so who knows who could claim the crown next season.
Belgium
Current champions: Antwerp
Antwerp won its fifth league title on the final day of the 2022–23 Belgian Pro League season. The big question is can the likes of Anderlecht (the most decorated club in Belgian football history), Gent, and Club Brugge prize it away this season?
Saudi Arabia
Current champions: Al-Ittihad
The 2023-2024 Saudi Pro League season is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in recent years. The league has attracted some of the biggest names in soccer, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. N’Golo Kanté and reigning champions Al-Ittihad began the season seeking their 10th title.
Brazil
Brasileirão Série A
Current champions: Palmeiras
Joga bonito—“the beautiful game”—is at the heart of Brazilian football, where style, flair, and individual brilliance are almost as important as the final result. Going into the 2023 season, Palmeiras, Atlético Mineiro, and Flamengo—the three most recent champions—were the betting favorites for the Série A title.
Japan
J1 League
Current champions: Yokohama F. Marinos
Japan’s top 18 clubs compete for the first division crown in the 2023 J1 League season. Yokohama F. Marinos are the team to beat as the champions defend their title, but there are also AFC Champions League places to play for, domestic cups, and a spicy relegation battle come the end of the season. Don’t miss one of Asia’s most exciting leagues and players in action!
Major European competitions
UEFA Champions League
Current champions: Manchester City
Europe’s premier mid-week competition has produced truly unforgettable games and moments as the best teams across the continent go head to head.
UEFA Europa League
Current holders: Sevilla
After the Champions League, the Europa League is the continent’s next-best mid-week fix of top teams competing for silverware.
UEFA Europa Conference League
Current holders: West Ham United
The Europa Conference League is the continent’s third-tier competition. West Ham won its first European title in over 40 years with a 90th-minute winner to beat Fiorentina 2-1 in the 2023 final.
UEFA Nations League
Current champion: Spain
Europe’s newest cup competition is a chance to see new national rivalries emerge, so make sure you know how to securely stream all the best games. Portugal was the inaugural Nations League champion, followed by France, and current holder Spain.
FIFA Club World Cup
Current champion: Read Madrid
Officially known as the FIFA Club World Cup Saudi Arabia 2023, the tournament will take place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, from December 12-22, 2023, and features seven sides of the world’s top football sides, including UEFA Champions League winner Manchester City (also the defending Premier League champion). Last year, Real Madrid won a record-extending fifth title with a thrilling 5-3 victory over Al Hilal—who will take the crown this year? Fans in many countries around the world can live stream the games online for free on FIFA+.
FIFA U-20 World Cup Argentina 2023
Current champion: Uruguay
Check out some of the world’s top youth talent as the biennial tournament gets underway in Argentina from May 20–June 11, 2023. Viewers in certain regions can watch FIFA U-20 World Cup live streams for free online on FIFA+.
Women’s football
England
FA Women’s Super League
Current champions: Chelsea
Not to be outdone by their male counterparts, women’s soccer has plenty of excitement for fans of the Beautiful Game. In England’s Women’s Super League, Chelsea won its sixth title last season, but expect Arsenal, Manchester United, and Manchester City to push them this season.
United States
National Women’s Soccer League
Current champions: Portland Thorns
The success of the US women’s national soccer team (four Women’s World Cups, four Olympic gold medals) is predicated on the talent nurtured in its national competition, where past stars like Mia Hamm inspired a generation of players like OL Reign captain Megan Rapinoe and San Diego Wave’s Alex Morgan. Washington Spirit won its first title in 2021, with forward Trinity Rodman (daughter of NBA star Dennis Rodman) among its ranks.
Major European competitions
UEFA Women’s Euro 2022
Current champions: England
Five years on from the last edition of the tournament, the UEFA Women’s Euro is back to live stream this summer. England’s Lionesses their first major trophy on home soil in the summer of 2022. Germany holds the record with eight titles.

Express VPN has servers all around the world and works seamlessly with sports streaming platforms.
