Sevilla CF vs. Liverpool FC

The Reds will look to do better on the road, having given away a 2-2 draw earlier on this season in what is a revenge for the 2016 Europa League final, though the times for the team flight look a bit awkward:

Manchester City vs. Feyenoord Rotterdam

Feyenoord have been fairly disappointing in their first Champions League campaign in a few years. They have no points on their account and come up against a Manchester City team that is flying high and already qualified for the knock-out stages:

Wydad Casablanca vs. Al-Ahly Cairo

Egypt Air seems to have put considerable hope on Al-Ahly to bring home the trophy and has decided to bring in an A330 instead of the usual B737-800 on the daily flight to Casablanca from Cairo:

MS847 CAI 0810-1150 CMN A332 SU-GCK (05/11/17, scheduled flight upgrade)

CAF CL, Final first leg, 28 Oct 2017

28 October 2017

Al-Ahly Cairo vs. Wydad Casablanca (in Alexandria)

The African Champions League Final is a two-legged affair, where both teams get to stage a home game each. This year, Egyptian club Al-Ahly from Cairo hosted the first leg in Alexandria, at the Borg-el-Arab Stadium, currently the prime venue for Egyptian football and also the stadium where the national team plays its home games. Moroccan visitors Wydad Casablanca arrived a few days before the game, using a Royal Air Maroc Boeing 737-800:

UEFA CL, GS MD4, 31 October - 1 November 2017

31 October 2017

Group A

Manchester United vs. SL Benfica

Benfica is having a campaign to forget so far, with home losses against CSKA and Manchester United as well as an absolute hammering in a lacklustre display away at FC Basel. They will be looking to improve at Old Trafford and they will travel there on a EuroAtlantic Boeing 767-300/ER (as reported by AlphaFive from Manchester):

FC Basel vs. CSKA Moscow

The Russian runners-up have some ground to make up after a disappointing home loss. Basel in the meantime could already secure their progress into the knock-out stages of either the Champions or the Europa League, depending on how the other match in the group goes. CSKA Moscow normally travel with their special painted Aeroflot Airbus A320 VP-BWD, but for now things look differently:

Group B

Celtic Glasgow vs. FC Bayern München

Glasgow appears to be a destination the Bayern fans have a lot of appetite for. While on the pitch things should work fairly smoothly for the German champions, their plan to travel with no less than seven aircraft is rather surprising for an outfit that tends to move through competitions with high self-assurance. Team and staff travel with Lufthansa as usual while for the numerous supporters there are flights planned with Condor, Enter Air and Germania:

Group C

Atlético Madrid vs. FK Qarabag Agdam

The goalless draw away in Baku would have left Atléti frustrated though for the Azeri debutants this was a performance to build on, particularly having played part of the game with ten men only. Qarabag will be traveling with no less than one of Azerbaijan Airlines' two Airbus A340-500s, just as Atléti did when they visited the Azeri capital:

Group D

Olympiacos Piraeus vs. FC Barcelona

In torrid times for Catalunya, FC Barcelona is looking to travel to Greece using foreign means. Portuguese ACMI specialist HiFly is their choice for the game, most likely providing them with an A340-300, though their A340-500 CS-TFX looks a good chance too, having returned to its home base in Beja after flying for Avianca for a few days:

Group E

Liverpool FC vs. NK Maribor

The Slovenian participants travel to Merseyside looking to stage an unlikely comeback after a 7-0 home defeat against Liverpool. Traveling seems to have been fairly complicated though. The Adria Airways A319 S5-AAR, initially due to carry the team to Liverpool returned to Ljubljana to subsequently do a regular flight to Frankfurt. Airbus A320 of BH Air was summoned to take over and took the team to Liverpool with a delay of more than seven hours on the night before the game:

Sevilla CF vs. Spartak Moscow

Having traveled with Aeroflot before, Rossiya appears to be the airline of choice for the Russian champions Spartak this time. The game at Pizjuan should be no walk in the park for them, for the Sevilla side will be fired up after losing so badly in Moscow:

FC Porto vs. RB Leipzig

The debutants from Germany scored their first win of the campaign last time out when they faced Porto at home. The Estadio do Dragao will provide them with another challenge however, facing a Porto side that will be determined not to let the own home supporters down. The support for Leipzig should be fairly vocal too though, with some supporters traveling to Portugal with a TUI B737-800:
