Slightly delayed here is my look at Matchweek 3 of Champions League, completed on Tuesday 21st and Wednesday 22nd October.
The current Kit Overview for Kits worn by The Champions League Teams.
This gives 107 of the 108 Kits of the 36 Teams, but there will be more thanks to a 4th Kits / Cup Kits that we will see in use over the coming months!

Kit Highlights
There are eight teams that have worn three different kits in their opening three games of Champions League – Ajax, Atletico Madrid, Galatasaray, Manchester City, Olympiacos, Pafos, PSG and Sporting CP.
Nine teams have just worn a single kit look in the three games so far – Bayer Leverkusen, Benfica, Chelsea, Copenhagen, Eintracht Frankfurt, Kairat, Moncao, Real Madrid and Villarreal.
This was the Matchweek where we saw the use of 4th Kits for the first time this season, however for two very different reasons..
Manchester City’s 4th Kit is in collaboration with EA SPORTS FC.
Sporting CP’s 4th Kit was a Charity Kit raising awareness for Brest Cancer for Pink October.
Galatasaray wore a nice variation of their Home Kit, which was paired with their white Away shorts.
Juventus are yet to wear their Home Kit in the competition so far this season, having worn their 3rd twice (including once at Home) and Away Kit.
PSG are one of the teams to make it three kits in three games, with their 3rd Kit, which is my favourite of the T90 Nike 3rd Kits this season.
My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between Chelsea and Ajax, as regular followers will know I do enjoy a contrasting sock colour with a kit look, so both teams going for this was always going to be a match up I enjoyed.
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen the following kits…
- 21 Home Kits
- 5 Away Kits
- 6 3rd Kits
- 2 “Cup” Kit
- 2 4th Kits
There were just two Kit Variations seen this week…
- Galatasaray – Home, with white (Away) shorts
- Ajax – 3rd, with alternative dark blue socks
