The champions of England play the champions of Germany today when Manchester City host Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League. After City’s frustrating loss against Real Madrid at Stadio Bernabeu, Manchester City must get a win under their belt today against a very tough German team in order to boost their confidence and raise their hopes of progressing through these difficult round.

Meanwhile, further south in England, Arsenal is at home against Greek side Olympiakos. After Arsenal got an away win against Montpellier, a win today will put them in pole position to top the group, so they can concentrate on regaining their form in the Premier League after the disappointing loss against Chelsea last weekend.

For viewers in the United States, here’s the TV schedule for today’s two matches.
