⚽ The third round of the Champions League’s league phase wraps up today with nine anticipated fixtures.

Real Madrid will be welcoming Juventus onto the pitch at Santiago Bernabéu at 10pm. Los Blancos are hoping to catch up with three teams sitting on maximum points after yesterday’s results, while the Bianconeri desperately need a win after disappointing draws in their opening two matches.

Chelsea will face the bottom-place Akax a Stamford Bridge at the same time, eyeing a victory after collecting just three points from their first two outings.

Liverpool will be travelling to Eintracht Frankfurt for a crucial matchup, also at 10pm. The Reds are walking onto the pitch wounded after their home defeat to Manchester United in the league, and last round’s loss to Galatasaray, needing a win to get back on track.

Other matches to keep an eye out for tonight:

  • Athletic Bilbao vs. Qarabağ (7:45pm);
  • Galatasaray vs. Bodø/Glimt (7:45pm);
  • Bayern Munich vs. Club Brugge (10pm);
  • Sporting Lisbon vs. Marsille (10pm);
  • Monaco vs. Tottenham Hotspur (10pm);
  • Atalanta vs. Salvia Prague (10pm).

Al Ahly will be locking horns with Al Ittihad at Cairo Stadium later today at 5pm for the 11th round of the Nile League. The Red Devils sit fourth on the leaderboard with 18 points, and could top the table with a victory — they’re only two points behind leaders Ceramica Cleopatra.

Al Masry also have their sights set on the top spot, a goal they’ll work towards during tonight’s final against Smouha at 8pm. The Port Said Eagles also boast 18 points, but sit in second on goal difference with an extra game under their belt, and a chance to claim the crown.
