MUMBAI : Ten Sports coverage of the UEFA Champions League continues this Tuesday with action from the top games taking place on match day five.
Ten Sports cameras first head to Arsenal who began their campaign strongly but after two mediocre performances against CSKA Moscow find themselves with a nervous end to the campaign. The visitors to the Emirates Stadium are Hamburg who they gained a victory over in match day one but even if the Londoners repeat that performance they will still not be guaranteed a place in the final sixteen. Arsenal seemed to rediscover their form last weekend with a convincing win against Liverpool and they will be confident of victory, taking on opponents who have only managed one victory from their nineteen competitive matches this season.
The delayed game on Tuesday is “The Battle of Britain” with Scottish Champions, Celtic hosting Manchester United. A victory for the English side will secure their place in the final sixteen while a victory for Celtic would put them level with United at the top of Group F.
On Wednesday night Chelsea will be hoping to secure their place in the final sixteen by avoiding defeat at Werder Bremen. The English Champions battled back to earn a draw against Barcelona in their previous Champions League match and a draw would be enough for them on Wednesday. But the star studded Chelsea team will be hoping to go through in style with victory against their closest rivals in Group A.
Following after will be coverage of Inter Milan against Sporting Lisbon in their Group B clash. Inter find themselves in danger of crashing out of the tournament if they fail to win as only one point separates the two sides in second and third spot and Sporting have by far the easier tie in the final round of matches.
It is going to be a captivating two nights of football and it is all exclusive to Ten Sports.
