The wait is over - the Champions League returns this week, and fans in the UK will be able to follow all the action on the BBC. The competition's showpiece club tournament has been a staple of European football for decades, and this year promises to be just as thrilling as ever.
For those who can't make it to the stadium, the BBC has got you covered. From 22:00 BST on Wednesday nights, highlights from each match will be available on BBC iPlayer, the BBC Sport website, and app. This means that fans can catch up on all the goals, drama, and controversy from each game, no matter where they are in the country.
But it's not just about the highlights - the BBC is also offering in-depth analysis and expert opinion on the big stories and talking points of the week. Match of the Day will be broadcast on Wednesday nights at 22:40 on BBC One, with a special episode dedicated to the Champions League on Thursday, September 10th, at the same time.
For those who want even more, there are clips available on the BBC Sport website, app, and social media channels. And for fans who prefer to follow the action in real-time, the BBC will be providing live text coverage of each match, as well as radio commentary on selected games.
BBC Radio 5 Live will once again be offering live commentary of selected Champions League matches, with listeners able to tune in on their smart speakers or through the BBC Sounds app. And for those who prefer to listen rather than watch, the BBC's Football Daily and Euro Leagues podcasts will bring you all the reaction and analysis from the biggest games.
This season's competition includes five British clubs: Arsenal, Aston Villa, Liverpool, Manchester City, and Manchester United. With such a strong representation from the UK, it promises to be an exciting campaign for domestic fans.
