The revamped Champions League format is now in it’s third season, and we will continue to review the kits worn in each Matchweek, much like the Premier League Kit Reviews.
As with the previous years of this format, Match 2 sees the games return to two days, with nine games on Tuesday and nice on a Wednesday, this will be the format until the final round of group games in January, with these games played across Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th October.
The current Kit Overview for Kits worn by The Champions League Teams.


This gives 103 of the 108 Kits of the 36 Teams, but there will be more thanks to the missing 3rd Kits as well as 4th Kits / Cup Kits that we are likely to see in use over the coming months!

Kit Highlights
Manchester United wore alternative white shorts and socks with their Away Kit at Atletico Madrid for a lesser spotted look for the Red Devils of Blue / White / White.

Napoli used their European 3rd Kit for the first time, which is all black with gold detailing, this means that it is unlikely we will see their regular red 3rd kit used in action in Champions League this season.

Galatasaray wore their Home Kit with white shorts for the second game in a row (first time at Home), does this mean that this will be their default kit look for the competition this season, lets keep an eye on this one.

It is not often we see Borussia Dortmund use a change kit in the Champions League but it was needed this when they visited Bodø / Glimt who’s first choice colours are also yellow.

LASK and Slovan Bratislava both wore their designated 3rd Kits at Home this week, with LASK now wearing this kit in both games so far in the competition

My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between Aston Villa and Fenerbahce, with the vistors using alternative navy blue shorts and socks, when matched up against Villa’s current Home Kit look gave us a nice looking balance and Kit Match up.
