Champions League Tuesday Preview

The Champions League returns on Tuesday with first of the first quarter-finals with Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City all in action.

Champions League favourites City continue their quest for the Quadruple, but a big part of that is the European title and they will have to beat at least one Premier League side to do it – with Spurs in their way.

The match will be the second game to take place at Tottenham’s new White Hart Lane Stadium and they will be looking to make sure they don’t lose at such an early stage.

Last season’s beaten finalists will be hopeful of progression as they host Porto at Anfield.

We run through every game including predictions from former England, Crystal Palace and Tottenham midfielder Andy Gray, our own Football Insider Graeme Bailey and BoyleSports’ Lawrence Lyons.
