The UEFA Champions League Football makes a return on the calendar today after close to a week where club level football was kept on hold due to international football events around the world.
Fans of various clubs are eagerly waiting to see how events unfold to once again claim the bragging rights or better still initiate one. This is for those who have not had much encounters as far as the champions League is concerned.
One such encounter to look forward to is the Arsenal versus Real Madrid fixture at the Emirates Sports Stadium. The only encounter between these two dates back to 2006 where Arsenal urged past Real Madrid after securing a 1-0 away victory at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid and holding Real Madrid to a goalless draw at home.
After long years of not meeting each other in the competition, today offers another chance for both teams to reset the records.
The other fixture that is worthy of note is Bayern Munich versus Inter Milan. A full fledged attacking Bayern side up against a disciplined defensive Inter side. We live to see how these turn out.
