Kick-off time
Aston Villa's pre-season friendly against Bayern Munich will kick off at 8pm local time on Friday. For fans watching back in the United Kingdom, this translates to an afternoon start at 1pm BST.
Venue
The highly anticipated fixture, billed as the Audi Football Summit, will take place in Hong Kong. The two squads will face off at the newly built Kai Tak Stadium, which serves as the city's state-of-the-art sporting landmark.
UK TV & stream
Supporters looking to watch the match live in the UK will be able to stream the action directly via VillaTV. Access to the broadcast requires an active subscription or a one-off pre-season match pass purchased through the club's official website.
Radio coverage
Although dedicated national radio coverage is unlikely for an overseas friendly, live audio commentary is usually integrated into the VillaTV platform. Fans can also listen for periodic match updates on local stations like BBC Radio WM, though full terrestrial radio broadcasts are rarely provided for these tours.
Previous results
Aston Villa holds a famously flawless competitive record against the German giants, beginning with their historic 1-0 triumph in the 1982 European Cup final.
The two sides met again in October 2024, where a late Jhon Durán strike secured another memorable 1-0 victory for Villa in the UEFA Champions League.
