**Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur will each make history during their second-round Champions League matches.**
On Tuesday afternoon, several of the biggest clubs in football will kick off their second group stage match in the 2025/26 Champions League.
The likes of Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are all in action across Tuesday's fixtures, as they all look to add another win to their European campaigns this season.
However, for four clubs playing on Tuesday, their matches will not only be a chance to earn another three points, but it will also set a new Champions League record.
Real Madrid will travel to Kazakhstan to face FC Kairat, while Tottenham Hotspur face FK Bodo/Glimt in Norway, and both games are set to go down in the history books.

Across the modern era of the Champions League, meaning from 1992,a total of 158 clubs from 34 national associations have competed in the competition.
And yet, FC Kairat welcoming Real Madrid to the Ortalyq stadion in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan will go down in history as the most easterly match ever in the UEFA Champions League or European Cup.
Tuesday's match will be the first meeting between the two clubs after FC Kairat qualified for the Champions League for the first time after winning the Kazakhstan top flight in 2024.
The only other time that the Kazakhstan side has featured in a UEFA competiton was during the inaugural Conference League in 2021-22, when they finished bottom of their group.
Tottenham Hotspur's trip to Bodo/Glimt's Aspmyra Stadion in Bodø, Norway will similarly break a geographical record as the most northerly match ever.
