MUMBAI: Ten Sports will broadcast the top matches of the UEFA Champions League live on Tuesday 26 September and Wednesday 27 September.

Ten Sports coverage begins with Benfica hosting Manchester United. Both sides have lifted this coveted trophy in the past with United winning its first crown when the two teams met during the 1968 finals. The two sides were also grouped together last season with Benfica having the upper hand, seeing United eliminated at the group stage.

The second match on 26 September will see last year's losing finalists Arsenal host 2004 winners Porto.

Ten Sports analyst John Burridge expects it to be another close match on Tuesday night, "On paper United have the stronger side but Benfica have proved time and again what a tough, well organized side they are. Add to that the intimidating atmosphere at the Stadium of Light, United are in for a very tough evening. The youngsters, Wayne Rooney and Ronaldo will need to be on top of their game but I think Paul Scholes in the middle may well be the difference between the two sides."

On 27 September the channel will showcase the live match between Liverpool and Galatasaray. The second match will see Chelsea travel to Levski Sofia looking for their second straight win.

26 September
