The third round of the Champions League group stage will take place tonight with matches from Group E to Group H, in which the match between Spartak and Benfica will take place earliest (at 11pm Vietnam time) to avoid the low temperature in Russia.

In this match, defending champion Chelsea will have to play away at Shakhtar Donetsk - a team that has always had an unbeaten record against the English every time they play at home at Donbass Arena.
In Group F, Bayern will visit Lille and they need a win to regain their spirit after the shocking 1-3 defeat against BATE Borisov in the previous round.
In Group G and Group H, the two giants Barcelona and Manchester United both play at home, thereby having a great chance to extend their winning streak.
However, they still need to be careful as the defense has been playing poorly recently.
From tomorrow night and the morning of the day after tomorrow (October 25), the groups from AD will also be in action. The focus is still on the group of death. Manchester City has only 1 point after 2 matches and if they lose to Ajax, it will be like they have already left the game.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid will travel to Germany to conquer Dortmund.
