Today, three key matches are taking place in the Champions League. Celtic is playing against Barcelona, Manchester City is hosting Bayer Leverkusen, and Marseille is meeting Newcastle. All matches will kick off at 20:00 Kyiv time.

In particular, the match between Marseille and Newcastle will be an important event, as these teams have not met in European tournaments before. The last encounter between Newcastle and Barcelona took place in 2003, when the team from Iv-Kosta secured victory.
