• Matchday One: Review

  A review of the opening group fixtures, including Real Madrid v Manchester City at the Bernabeu, Montpellier v Arsenal at the Stade de la Mosson, Chelsea v Juventus at Stamford Bridge, Manchester United v Galatasaray at Old Trafford and Celtic v Benfica at Celtic Park

• Matchday Six

  All the action from one of this evening's matchday six fixtures, as two teams conclude their round-robin group campaigns (Kick-off 7.45pm). The matches taking place tonight include Borussia Dortmund v Manchester City at Signal-Iduna Park and Olympiakos v Arsenal at the Karaiskakis Stadium. City snatched a 1-1 draw against the German champions in the reverse fixture thanks to a late Mario Balotelli penalty, while the Gunners had no such problems in a 3-1 victory against the Greeks. Adrian Chiles presents, with analysis by Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate and commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend

• Matchday Five Preview

  A preview of the matchday five fixtures, including Manchester City v Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium, Juventus v Chelsea at Juventus Stadium, Galatasaray v Manchester United at the Turk Telekom Arena, Benfica v Celtic at Estadio da Luz and Arsenal v Montpellier at the Emirates Stadium

• Marseille v Liverpool

  Marseille v Liverpool (Kick-off 7.45pm). Steve Rider is joined by Andy Townsend to present coverage of the Group D match at the Stade Velodrome, where the teams meet for the second successive season. The Reds' visit to this stadium last term was a happy one as they secured qualification to the last 16 with a 4-0 victory. However, their earlier 1-0 defeat at Anfield against the French outfit shows there will be no room for complacency. They will also need to improve on their lacklustre performances against Standard Liege in the qualifying round if they are to take anything from this game. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and David Pleat, with reports from Gabriel Clarke

• Manchester United v SC Braga

  Manchester United v SC Braga (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the matchday three Group H clash at Old Trafford. United began their campaign with hard-fought victories over Galatasaray and CFR Cluj and another win this evening against the Portuguese outfit would leave them looking all the more likely to avoid a repeat of last season, when they failed to progress to the knockout stages of this competition. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• UCL: Real Madrid v Manchester City

  Real Madrid v Manchester City (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of this evening's matchday one Group D fixture at the Bernabeu. City have again been drawn in a difficult group as they look to progress to the knockout stages for the first time, and will also have to face Ajax and Borussia Dortmund as they seek a top-two finish. The hosts were eliminated in the semi-finals last season by Bayern Munich and made a sluggish start to the defence of their La Liga title, but still pose a major threat to Roberto Mancini's chances of European success. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis by Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Matchday Two

  A look back at the matchday two fixtures, which included Arsenal v Olympiakos at the Emirates Stadium, Manchester City v Borussia Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium and Benfica v Barcelona at the Estadio da Luz

• Paris Saint-Germain v Barcelona

  Paris Saint-Germain v Barcelona (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the quarter-final first-leg match at the Parc des Princes between the French and Spanish league leaders. Having spent vast sums of money on players in recent seasons, the Parisians now find themselves competing among the leading clubs for European club football's greatest prize, as they contest a match in the last-eight for the first time since 1995 - when they defeated Barcelona over two legs. Carlo Ancelotti's men are likely to include striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic tonight after he successfully appealed against the second match of his initial two-match suspension, which could help their chances of taking a lead to the Nou Camp. Given how Barca overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit to AC Milan in the previous round by winning 4-0 at home, anything less than a victory for PSG may not be considered enough as they aim to progress further. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Play-offs: Second-Legs Preview

  A review of the first-leg matches in the play-offs, and a look ahead to the second-leg matches, which will see the winners of the ties progress to the lucrative group stage

• Manchester United v Real Madrid

  Manchester United v Real Madrid (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles is joined by Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate to present coverage of the last-16 second-leg match at Old Trafford, where a place in the quarter-finals is at stake. The tie is delicately poised at 1-1 following the first leg at the Bernabeu, which saw United take the lead through Danny Welbeck, before former Red Devil Cristiano Ronaldo equalised for his current employers. The home side will enter this match as slight favourites seeing as they managed to score an away goal in the Spanish capital, but given both sides' attacking capabilities the prospect of a 0-0 draw seems unlikely, especially as manager Jose Mourinho will be eager to steer Real to a 10th European Cup in what has been a turbulent campaign. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend

• Real Madrid v Borussia Dortmund

  Real Madrid v Borussia Dortmund (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the semi-final second-leg encounter at the Bernabeu where one of the teams will secure their place in the final, to be held at Wembley Stadium on 25 May. This will be the fourth time these teams have faced each other in this season's competition, having met twice in Group D and also the first leg last week. The group stage match at this venue finished in a 2-2 draw, with the Germans having twice taken the lead, firstly through Marco Reus and secondly via an Alvaro Arbeloa own goal, while equalisers for Real were scored by Pepe and Mesut Ozil. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• UCL: Celtic v Juventus

  Celtic v Juventus (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles is joined by Roy Keane, Gordon Strachan and Lee Dixon to present coverage of the last-16 first-leg encounter at Celtic Park, where the Bhoys entertain the Italian champions. Juve topped a strong group containing Shakhtar Donetsk and holders Chelsea, but Neil Lennon's men will feel they can overcome anyone in front of their own fans after earning memorable home wins over Barcelona and Spartak Moscow to help secure their place in this round. The sides last met here in the group stage of the 2001/02 campaign, when Celtic won a thrilling encounter 4-3 to avenge a 3-2 loss in Turin. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend

• Panathinaikos v Atletico Madrid

  Panathinaikos v Atletico Madrid. Steve Rider presents another chance to see the play-off round first-leg match at the Athens Olympic Stadium

• UCL: Manchester City v Ajax

  Manchester City v Ajax (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the Group D match at the Etihad Stadium, as the sides meet for the second time in the campaign. Having suffered a 3-1 defeat to the Dutch outfit in Amsterdam in the previous round of matches, Roberto Mancini's side face a monumental challenge in their quest to progress to the knockout stage for the first time. With just one point from their previous three fixtures, courtesy of a late and somewhat controversial Mario Balotelli penalty in their home clash against Borussia Dortmund, nothing less than a victory tonight will suffice if they are to have any realistic hope of finishing in the top two in the table. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, with analysis from Lee Dixon, Roy Keane and Gareth Southgate

• UCL: CFR Cluj v Manchester United

  CFR Cluj v Manchester United (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the matchday two Group H encounter at the Dr Constantin Radulescu Stadium in Romania. Cluj claimed their domestic title for the third time in five seasons last term, and won at SC Braga in their opener, but given the visitors' greater resources and European pedigree, United still go into this match as the favourites, despite their shock exit from the competition in the group stage of the 2011/12 campaign. The Red Devils edged to victory in their first fixture, beating Galatasaray 1-0 courtesy of a Michael Carrick goal. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

  Arsenal v Bayern Munich (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles is joined by Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate to present coverage of the last-16 first-leg match at the Emirates Stadium, as the Gunners look to gain an advantage ahead of the return leg. After finishing second in Group B, the Gunners will go into this match as underdogs against the German giants, who topped the Group F table by virtue of their superior head-to-head record against Valencia. Arsene Wenger's men have already faced Bayern's compatriots Schalke 04 in this season's competition, finishing two points behind them in the table after losing 2-0 at home and drawing 2-2 away. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend

• Arsenal v Celtic

  Arsenal v Celtic (Kick-off 7.45pm). Matt Smith is joined by Robbie Earle to introduce coverage of the second leg of the play-off fixture between the English and Scottish sides at the Emirates Stadium, as the teams contest a place in the lucrative group stage. The Gunners have only lost once in European competition on this ground and have the luxury of a 2-0 lead from the first leg at Celtic Park, when a fortunate deflection off William Gallas and a Gary Caldwell own goal sealed a dominant victory. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Jim Beglin

• Barcelona v AC Milan

  Barcelona v AC Milan (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the last-16 second-leg match at the Nou Camp, where the hosts will attempt to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first encounter at the San Siro. Second-half goals from Kevin-Prince Boateng and Sulley Muntari were enough to give the Italians an advantage over the La Liga side, and Milan will now be seen as favourites to progress to the quarter-finals after also having denied Barcelona an away goal that would have aided their cause. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Helsingborg v Celtic

  Helsingborg v Celtic (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the first-leg match in the play-off round, which is held at the Olympic Stadium. The SPL champions recorded a 4-1 aggregate victory over HJK Helsinki in the last round, but will expect to face a much tougher challenge against the Swedish side, who qualified for this round by beating Slask Wroclaw 6-1 over two legs. The winners of this two-legged affair will progress to the group stage of the competition, so both will be keen to perform well in this contest and claim a positive result for the return leg at Celtic Park next week. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Gordon Strachan, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Live Champions League Final: Borussia Dortmund v Bayern Munich

  Borussia Dortmund v Bayern Munich (Kick-off 7.45pm). Coverage of the showpiece match at Wembley Stadium, where the Bundesliga clubs contest the prestigious trophy. This will be the fifth match to take place between the German rivals during this campaign, with the two league matches finishing in 1-1 draws, while Bayern triumphed 1-0 in the quarter-finals of the DFB-Pokal and 2-1 in the DFB-Supercup

• Live UEFA Champions League Final

  Bayern Munich v Chelsea (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the showpiece match at the Allianz Arena in Munich, where European club football's premier competition concludes. Bayern have won this trophy on four occasions, but the last of those was in 2001, and they have the advantage of playing at their own stadium against the Blues. Chelsea are looking to win the tournament for the first time in their history, and they need to do so if they are to play in the competition again next season, after finishing sixth in the Premier League this time around. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis by Roy Keane, Gianfranco Zola and Gareth Southgate

• Galatasaray v Real Madrid

  Galatasaray v Real Madrid (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the quarter-final second-leg clash between the sides at the Turk Telekom Arena. With last week's reverse fixture at the Bernabeu fresh in their memories, both clubs will be looking to do enough here to book a place in the competition's semi-finals, and take the next step toward its conclusion at Wembley next month. Real are the most decorated club in the history of the European Cup and its successor, while Galatasaray have never lifted the prestigious trophy. With commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, and analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Chelsea v Bordeaux

  Chelsea v Bordeaux (Kick-off 7.45pm). Coverage of the Group A encounter from Stamford Bridge. The Blues' boss Luiz Felipe Scolari manages in the Champions League for the first time tonight, as he side face Laurent Blanc's Ligue 1 runners-up. The hosts will need to be wary of Argentinian striker Fernando Cavenaghi and will hope their own formidable forward Didier Drogba is fit enough to play

• Bayern Munich v Barcelona

  Bayern Munich v Barcelona (Kick-off 7.45pm). Adrian Chiles presents coverage of the semi-final first-leg match at the Allianz Arena, where the teams will look to gain an advantage in their quest to reach the final at Wembley. Having already secured the Bundesliga title, Bayern can now focus their attention on European club football's most celebrated competition, as they aim to go one better than last season, when they finished as runners-up to Chelsea after a penalty shoot-out. While the German outfit looked assured in beating Italians Juventus 4-0 on aggregate in the previous round, Spanish giants Barcelona had to rely on the away-goal rule to overcome Paris Saint-Germain, with the 2-2 draw in Paris proving crucial after the 1-1 stalemate in the second leg at the Nou Camp. Commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, with analysis from Roy Keane, Lee Dixon and Gareth Southgate

• Barcelona v Inter Milan

  Barcelona v Inter Milan (Kick-off 7.45pm). All the action from the semi-final second-leg encounter at the Nou Camp, where the holders entertain Jose Mourinho's Italian champions, who lead 3-1 from the first leg at the San Siro. Barca won 2-0 when the sides met here in the group stage, and a repeat of that result would be enough to see them progress to the final on the away goals rule. However, Inter's away wins over Chelsea and CSKA Moscow in the two previous rounds prove they cannot be underestimated on foreign soil. Presented by Steve Rider, with commentary by Clive Tyldesley and Jim Beglin

• Borussia Dortmund v Bayern Munich

  Borussia Dortmund v Bayern Munich (Kick-off 7.45pm). Coverage of the final at Wembley Stadium, where the Bundesliga clubs contest the prestigious trophy. This will be the fifth match to take place between the German rivals during this campaign, with the two league matches finishing in 1-1 draws, while Bayern triumphed 1-0 in the quarter-finals of the DFB-Pokal and 2-1 in the DFB-Supercup. Presented by Bill O'Herlihy, with commentary by George Hamilton and Ray Houghton, and analysis by John Giles, Eamon Dunphy and Liam Brady

• Champions League Final

  Barcelona v Manchester United (Kick-off 7.45pm). Bill O'Herlihy presents coverage of the final of European football's most prestigious competition, as the sides meet at Wembley Stadium. Both clubs have fond memories of winning their first European Cups at Wembley, with United beating Benfica in 1968 and Barca winning 1-0 against Sampdoria in 1992. United reached their third final in four years with a 6-1 aggregate victory over Schalke 04 in the semi-final, but face a much tougher test against the Spanish champions, who beat the Red Devils 2-0 in the final in Rome two years ago. Commentary by George Hamilton and Ray Houghton, with analysis from John Giles, Eamon Dunphy and Liam Brady

• Champions League Final

  Barcelona v Manchester United. Another chance to see the final of European football's most prestigious competition, as the sides met at Wembley Stadium. Both clubs have fond memories of winning their first European Cups at Wembley, with United beating Benfica in 1968 and Barca winning 1-0 against Sampdoria in 1992

• Manchester United v Bayern Munich

  Manchester United v Bayern Munich (Kick-off 7.45pm). Steve Rider presents coverage of this evening's quarter-final second-leg encounter at Old Trafford. The tie is finely poised at 2-1 to the Germans, after they came back from a goal down to win the opening leg at the Allianz Arena last week. Wayne Rooney scored a vital away goal for United in that game, but limped off with an ankle injury in the closing moments. With commentary by Peter Drury and Jim Beglin
