Why It Matters
The UEFA Champions League league phase is underway, with Matchday 1 completed and Matchday 2 scheduled for October 13-14. The tournament format includes a league phase where top eight advance directly to knockout rounds and next 16 enter a playoff round.
The UEFA Champions League is back this week with Matchday 2, with games spread across Tuesday and Wednesday. Unlike Matchday 1, which saw games across three days, the conventional two-day window is back for the rest of the league phase and with some incredible matchups to look forward to.
Tuesday's slate is highlighted by Manchester United's trip to Atletico Madrid, while Bayern Munich face a tricky test at Viking, and Wednesday's slate is a doozy. Not only does Jose Mourinho make his return to AS Roma, this time as the coach of Real Madrid, but Manchester City will play their first UCL game since being found guilty of 114 financial charges, taking on PSG. Their first game since those charges was at Liverpool on Sunday, and it's safe to say it went more than well.
Let's take a look at the full schedule of the league phase until Jan. 27, when the first part of the tournament will end with the top eight spots advancing straight to the knockout round while the next 16 advance to a playoff round.
