This seasons New LookChampions League is under way all 36 teams will be playing over the next three nights in the opening week, with each side having a unique set of eight fixtures between now and The End of january. 2a points the maximum that will definitely guarantee a top eight finish to qualify for the knockout stage, 8 9 points should be enough to get into the play offs. Thats the next 16 sides, what we do know is that the bottom 12 in this single League Phase will be out of europe, no parachute into the europa league.

They do, because everything was looking they need to bounce back. They do, because everything was looking so l because everything was looking so rosy for them, the talk Around Liverpool was the amount of chances they were taking, how solid they look defensively, then it flipped on its head completely against Nottingham Forest. You can see the frustration with the manager and the players as well. But we need to be is a little more patient with liverpool, more understanding that the style of play is that liverpool will creep back into the old habits ofjuergen klopp its about being more patient within games, that theyre not shooting from long range, to make sure they are trying to put that extra pass. And i think that something theyll try and achieve tonight in this game. We will have coverage on Bbc Radio 5 live in bbc sounds, its an 8pm Kick Off. Aston villa are back in europes top Club Compettiton for the first time since 1983, when they reached the quarterfinals as defending champions. They are playing right now in switzerland and beating Young Boys 2 0 at half time in bern. Villa are wearing Black Armbands in memory of gary shaw, who died yesterday at the age of 63. Their former striker was top scorer in that � 82 83 season. Youri tielemanns gave villa the lead. They trained at the Wankdorf Stadium last night to get used to the artificial pitch and that seems to have helped, creating plenty of opportuniteies. Jacob ramsey scored their second. 0llie Watkins has just had a goal dissalowed. Villa are 2 0 up at half time. These are the first matches of the new Champions League season. One other early Kick OffJuventus Lead psv by 2 0. Also matches at bayern munich, sporting and the defending champions Real Madrid start at home against stuttgart.

Lets say you had finishes in the past, Real Madrid wouldve thought, let someone else have them until hes 24 and we know hes the best in the world, and well buy him then. But now because of economic realities and because of the slight twist in the way they want to mould those players when they are here, i think its a younger version of the galacticos project, and i think its changed. I do think they understood some of the mistakes implicit in the previous approach and change them for this one. The previous approach and change them for this one for this one.

Of course, not every footballer will be in action as often as rodri few teams are as successful as spain and Manchester City fc so finding a consensus among players might be tricky. It seems the better you are, the harder you might have to work. Patrick gearey, Bbc News. This week is a great example of a packed schedule. There also seven ties in the third round of the League Cup this evening this is when the last of the Premier Legaue sides involved in europe enter the competition,. Not something that everton have to worry about theyre only win this season was against doncaster in the last round. Theyre at goodison tonight, facing southamtpon, who have also lost all four of their games in the Premier League this season. The last of those was against manchester united, who won 3 0 at St Marys on saturday. United Host Barnsley at Old Trafford this evening. Its about winning trophies. But i dont talk only about this, you guys always talk about, you have to win, to win leagues. So we are in five leagues, and we want to win them. So no doubt, we are aiming for a trophy. So this is one opportunity, so we cherish it. You can keep across the League Cup and the Champions League tonight on final score on bbc iplayer, the bbc sport app, or via your red button. And dont forget there are Champions League highlights this week on Bbc One at 10. 40pm tomorrow evening, and Bbc Two at 11. 05pm on thursday. Lets have a quick look at some of the days other stories. Emma raducanu is through to the second round of the korea 0pen, after a hard fought win over the american peyton stearns. She won in straight sets, but both went to tie breaks in a match that lasted two and three quarter hours. Its her first win since she beat stearns in latejuly. World number three Mark Allen is through to the second round of the english open in brentwood, but had to work for it against chinese qualifier long Ze Huang coming from 3 2 down to win 4 3. And Craig Levein has been sacked by stjohnstone, five matches into the Scottish Premiership season. The former Scotland Boss had been in the job since last november, and helped them avoid relegation. Stjohnstone are tenth in the table, with one win and four defeats. Its Day One in the penultimate round of matches in the County Championship. Somerset got themselves back into it with a win Over Surrey last time out, cutting the champions lead to just eight points. Somerset are playing lancashire at Old Trafford. Rocky flintoff, son of freddy, the former england all rounder, has had an impressive Debut Season in first class cricket, but was out for just seven, as lancashire were bowled out for 140. Archie vaughan, son of another former england captain, michael vaughan, opens for somerset, he was out for 21, he took 11 wickets in that win Over Surrey last Week But Somerset have struggled with the bat as well, bowled out for 146. Surrey, who are looking for a third County Championship title in a row, won the toss and have put durham into bat first at the oval. They were all out for 262 Colin Ackermann top scoring with 78 not out. Surrey are 52 without loss in reply. The Scottish Government has given its backing to glasgows bid to host the 2026 commonwealth games. Theyve stepped in after the australian state of victoria pulled out because of rising costs. Government support was the last hurdle, it needed reassurances that the games, which will be scaled back, wouldnt come at any cost to the public purse. Heres our Sports News Correspondent chris mclaughlin. Its ten years since glasgow hosted the games, and they will look very different in two years time. Gayle mcpherson, a professor in events and cultural policy, told me that this slimmed down version might be the only viable way forward for the commonwealth games. This has been a chance to reframe and reset the games and use as a Stepping Stone for something new. And glasgow has a long history of being ambitious and innovative in its approaches to things, so why should we expect any different this time . Its a real opportunity for the city and, bearing in mind that they have been delivering games every other year, major Sporting Events since glasgow 2014. So they are more than ready. Are more than ready. Weve been waitin are more than ready. Weve been waiting for are more than ready. Weve been waiting for government are more than ready. Weve been waiting for government approval, weve got that now, so its All Systems Go for two years time just earlier this month, the government was saying there could be some Reputational Damage here, we just have to make sure we get things right. Whatjeopardy do you think there could still be for the city . I there could still be for the city . I think this was really an issue about the public finances, its about perceptions, because people were anxious that if we spent money on this, this would have Reputational Damage for government. But theres been reassurances. And lets face it, if we dont run the games, then no ones running the games. So in terms of Reputational Damage, glasgow has stepped up to the plate and said, look, we have all the facilities here, we have the expertise here, weve been running European Championships, uci World Cycling championships, we have all the structure they are ready to go, so we can do this as long as its a slimmed down games. In terms of that reputation, thats a strong, positive reputation for the city to continue what theyre good at. De continue what theyre good at. Do ou continue what theyre good at. Do you think the slimmed down games could be a template for future games going forward . Yes could be a template for future games going forward . Going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that if going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that if the going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that if the games going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that if the games offer going forward . Yes i do, and i think we see that if the games offer this i we see that if the games offer this possibility to unite, for peace and diversity, and it fits this model and harmony, we would want the games to continue in that and allow others a chance. And also remember, this gives scottish athletes and others a chance to fly under their own flag as an independent nation. So the power of the commonwealth overall allows smaller nations to develop their athletes and give them a chance at these games as a Stepping Stone for moving on to larger games in the future, like the olympics. Lets return to football because the women in Football Group are calling for changes to the new Football Bill and the independent Football Regulator� s code of practice. They want to lobby the government for an initial goal of 30 female representation and recently met with the Fa Chair debbie hewitt. Yvonne harrison is the ceo of women in football. Debbie was fantastic, in terms of just talking through the debbie was fantastic, in terms of just talking througt just talking through the reforms that the fa just talking through the reforms that the fa had just talking through the reforms that the fa had been just talking through the reforms that the fa had been through i just talking through the reforms i that the fa had been through and how theyd gone about that, and also how that translates potentially into that translates potentially into that sort of international space. She talked quite a Lot about Leadership Principles and the standards of good governance for business, and how they sort of apply within that Football Arena and the responsibility of all leaders to really challenge ourselves, in terms of our thinking around diversity, recognising our own biases, and thinking about how we can create spaces, so difficult conversations can be had within our organisation. Just purely looking at the governing side of just purely looking at the governing side of things, what other type of Things Side of things, what other type of things youd like to see written in, in terms things youd like to see written in, in terms of things youd like to see written in, in terms of the legality overall . | in terms of the legality overall . Think, you in terms of the legality overall . I think, you know, from the code perspective, having provision for diversity will be a key one because with that, you get change, you get progress. If we just say we want football to be an inclusive space, full stop, when youve got so many other priorities as well, its not driving people. So i think thats key. I think from a perspective of open doors, we suggested a target of at least 30 obviously you want equal or presentation of men and women, but some organisations are so far off that, actually having something thats not too far but dont let thats not too far but dont let that stop you. I think the next steps for us will be for us to lobby government on any code of practice that sits within the independent Football Regulator remit, around diversity and inclusion, i think thats a really important one for us. , thats a really important one for us, , , , thats a really important one for us. That was Yvonne Harrison speaking us. That was Yvonne Harrison speaking to us. That was Yvonne Harrison speaking to emma us. That was Yvonne Harrison speaking to emma sanders. I the countdown continues to the all british World Title Fight at a sold out wembley stadium on Saturday Anthonyjoshua taking on daniel dubois. Dubois holds the Ibf Belt after the former unified champion, 0leksandr usyk, gave up the title.

Hello. Last week brought us Lots of heavy showers, and a real Autumn Chill developed across the uk. But this week, things look and feel very different. It is as if summer has made a return. This is just a selection of the Weather Watcher pictures weve had from across the uk during today. Blue skies and sunshine thanks to high pressure, which is firmly in charge of the scene right now. Quite breezy around the edges of this area of high pressure, and some areas of cloud just drifting around as well. A bit of cloud just moving in across parts of east anglia, the southeast of england overnight. Cloud that has been affecting the north of scotland tending to retreat, becoming mostly confined to shetland. A few Fog Patches are possible through Northern Ireland, northern england, up into southern and eastern scotland, where temperatures will be dropping away, but where we have more cloud to the northwest and to the southeast of the uk, those temperatures holding up in double digits for many locations. Into wednesday, a bit more cloud in the mix for england and wales, but much of that will retreat to the east coast. Northern ireland and scotland should see a Lot of sunshine, particularly sunny skies, i think, in the north of scotland. Will be quite breezy in the south. This feed of winds off the North Sea will also peg the temperatures back across some eastern areas, so 17 degrees there for newcastle and for hull, but close to the london area, also northern scotland, highs of 24 25 degrees. Now during wednesday night, just keep an eye on developments here in the North Sea. It looks like well see more cloud forming and then rolling its way westwards, particularly across england and wales. Some of that cloud getting into eastern scotland as well. At the same time, we see more Cloud Rolling back into the north of scotland, but many places will still see some sunshine during thursday. Highest temperatures likely to be in western and southern parts. We could get to 24 25 degrees, but as we look towards The End of the week, things do start to change. High pressure drifts northwards. Low pressure developing across iberia starts to edge its way in our direction. And across england and wales particularly, we will see some showers, possibly even some thunderstorms as we head on through the weekend. Now further north across Northern Ireland and scotland, where we will see a bit of Mist And Murk and low cloud for eastern coast of scotland. 0therwise, some spells of sunshine but starting to feel a bit cooler.
