Milan going big, Leverkusen going long - UEFA Champions League MD4, 5 November 2024

PSV Eindhoven vs. Girona FC

18.45h, Philips Stadion, Eindhoven

28th/2pts vs. 24th/3pts


Two teams in need for more points face off in Eindhoven. PSV managed two draws so far. At the same time, Girona at least managed to beat a win over Slovan Bratislava in the previous round. To make it at least to the knockout phase play-offs, both teams need a positive result from this game however.

Slovan Bratislava vs. Dinamo Zagreb

18.45h, Tehelne Pole, Bratislava

36th/0pts vs. 22nd/4pts


The absolutely last-placed team in this year's competition is Slovan Bratislava. After three games, they have no points and just the one goal to show for. Their opponents Dinamo Zagreb at least won against RB Salzburg and drew with AS Monaco.

Real Madrid vs. AC Milan

21.00h, Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid

12th/6pts vs. 25th/3pts


Two of the ultimative heavy-weights in European club football play each other in Madrid. Real have won two out of three matches so far. Milan won one against Brugge and lost the other two against Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen. A win for Real would help them to keep up the pace with the leaders. Interestingly enough, Milan will use a widebody aircraft for the relatively short trip from Malpensa to Madrid. The flight is running under a Neos callsign, but will be operated by Norse Atlantic Airways.

Bologna FC vs. AS Monaco

21.00h, Stadio Renato Dall'ara, Bologna


It looks like a tough ask for the home team against the high-flying AS Monaco. The visitors from Monaco already have seven points from three matches while Bologna sits way down the table with just a solitary point from a draw against Shakhtar Donetsk.

Liverpool FC vs. Bayer 04 Leverkusen

21.00h (20.00h local time), Anfield Road, Liverpool

2nd/9pts vs. 6th/7pts


Ten out of 36 teams in this year's Champions League League phase are still unbeaten. Liverpool is even amongst the two teams that won all three games this far. Bayer Leverkusen had wins in Rotterdam against Feyenoord and then at home against Milan before a draw with Brest away in Guingamp. Enthusiasts in Liverpool will get treated to a Condor Boeing 757-300 visiting - one of the last, if not the last chance for them to see this particular aircraft type.

Celtic Glasgow vs. RB Leipzig

21.00h (20.00h local time), Celtic Park, Glasgow

20th/4pts vs. 31st/0pts


That Leipzig are so far down the table could probably not be expected before the League phase. But the team played some big teams so far, including Juventus and Liverpool, against whom they both lost by just one goal. Away in Glasgow, they will aim to do much better. But can they come up against the traditionally very big atmosphere at Celtic Park?

Lille OSC vs. Juventus Turin

21.00h, Stade Pierre Mauroy, Villeneuve-d'Ascq

15th/6pts vs. 14th/6pts


Two neighbors on the table face off in a quest for more points. Juventus had two wins in three games, just like LOSC. That recent loss at home against Stuttgart may not have been planned for however. Surely Juve may look for something better away in Northern France. LOSC started with a defeat away in Lisbon against Sporting but came back well with wins over both Real and Atlético Madrid.

Borussia Dortmund vs. SK Sturm Graz

21.00h, Signal Iduna Park (Westfalenstadion), Dortmund

11th/6pts vs. 32nd/0pts


It is another very difficult assignment for the Austrian champions Sturm Graz, away at the mighty Borussia Dortmund. In one of their first three matches, Borussia scored a 7-1 win over Celtic - and yet this is not even the highest win of this league phase. In the third match however, they lost 5-2 away at Real Madrid. Could it be a question of which BVB turns up at the Westfalenstadion on Tuesday night?

Sporting CP vs. Manchester City

21.00h (20.00h local time), Stadio José Alvalade, Lisbon

8th/7pts vs. 3rd/7pts


These two teams are high up in the table and equal on points. Whoever wins this match will have great chances to make a step forward towards the knockout rounds.
