UEFA have announced the full Champions League match schedule for the league phase of the competition.
The 2025-26 Champions League will see a record six English clubs fight for the chance to win the most coveted prize in European club football, after they each discovered their eight opponents - with four games at home and four away - during the draw on Thursday.
Favourites Liverpool have been handed a nightmare Champions League schedule as Trent Alexander-Arnold's fiercely anticipated return has been confirmed. A gruelling run sees a Premier League title-race six-pointer against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, which is scheduled for Saturday, November 8 but may move due to television scheduling, days before Alexander-Arnold comes to Anfield with Real Madrid on November 4.
Here's the full fixtures for Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United.
