Bayern Munich vs Schalke Live Stream: How to watch the Bundesliga opener

German soccer is back. A live stream of Bayern Munich vs Schalke brings the team home to us today (Friday, September 18). And this season opener has it all. Or at least, the team that seems to have it all, namely Bayern Munich, who have won the last eight championships.

Almost unfair, right? Well, the status quo for Bayern is about to change, as new signing Leroy Sané (forward) is trying to maintain his impeccable attacking ability. Adding Sané to a flock that includes Kingsley Coman, Serge Nyabry, Robert Lewandowski, and Thomas Muller? I would not want to be in the opposite position.

And to make this match even more special, 7,500 fans will enter the Allianz Arena to cheer on Bayern's continued dominance.

But speaking of the other side of the field, a Schalke upset is not inconceivable. Ravi Matondo (forward) and attacker Sead Ibisevic might combine to make it rain on the day of those thousands of fans.

Even if all this English about German soccer sounds like Greek to you, you too can live stream Bayern Munich vs. Schalke and see what it is like to be a fan in the stadium for a sporting event You can.

Americans can watch tomorrow's Bundesliga match on ESPN Plus, and ESPN itself. And fortunately, FS1 is widely available on many of the live TV streaming services we recommend.

These services start with the affordable and customizable Sling TV, which requires the Blue package to watch FS1; Hulu with Live TV is also a solid choice, as it packs exclusive original programming. Sports fans will want to know about FuboTV, which has more sports than you could possibly need.

To watch Bundesliga matches, our friends in the north of the country can tune into the subscription TV channel Sportsnet. No such option is available, as "Sportsnet Now" broadcasts all Bundesliga matches live in beautiful HD quality across Canada.

It's not free, however, and you'll need the SN Now+ package for this game: CA$9.99 for a 7-day trial, or CA$27.99 per month for a longer subscription.

In Australia, there are two options to watch beIN Sports, the only channel that broadcasts the Bundesliga. The best value is to watch beIN with a free two-week trial of Kayo Sports, which also offers Fox Sports and ESPN channels. This costs $24.99 per month and is ideal if you don't have another network on your regular streaming service.

Of course, beIN Sports can be purchased separately for $19.99/month, with a 2-week free trial.
