It all kicks off this Tuesday: the first Champions League match day features, among others, the pairings Paris St. Germain against Borussia Dortmund and Young Boys Bern against Rasenballsport Leipzig.
The most important competition in European club football, the Champions League, opens the new season this Tuesday.
The French champions, Paris St. Germain, now under the direction of the Spaniard Luis Enrique, will face Borussia Dortmund. For years, Paris has been desperately trying to win the premier class – so far in vain. In the French league, PSG has rarely impressed since the start of the season and is only in fifth place after five match days. Dortmund has two wins and two draws in the Bundesliga at this point.
The other matches this Tuesday:
In the second game in Group F, AC Milan host Newcastle United.
The duels in Group E: Feyenoord Rotterdam against Celtic Glasgow and Lazio Rome against Atlético Madrid.
In Group G, Young Boys Bern host Rasenballsport Leipzig, while Manchester City face Red Star Belgrade.
And finally, Group H: FC Barcelona will face Antwerp, while FC Porto will play their home game against FC Shakhtar Donetsk at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg.
