Matchday Live, our matchnight radio show live in the UEFA.com MatchCentre, is back to provide you with audio commentary of the UEFA Champions League action from Anfield, the Camp Nou and Estádio do Dragão.

FC Barcelona v AFC Ajax is our main game on Tuesday, with full match commentary of their Group F meeting. Michael Reiziger played for both teams and he gives us an insight into what makes this a special European fixture. FC Porto, meanwhile, have a real Spanish feel this season under coach Julen Lopetegui, and we have updates from Portugal as they face Athletic Club.

On Wednesday, we have an exclusive interview with two-time UEFA Champions League winner Steve McManaman, who tells us why Anfield is such a special place to play on European nights as two of his former clubs meet. Liverpool FC against Real Madrid CF is our featured commentary on Matchday Live, while we are also across matters in Istanbul as Borussia Dortmund look to build on their two group stage wins at Galatasaray AŞ.

In addition, Mircea Lucescu tells us about life at FC Shakhtar Donetsk, ten years on from his first UEFA Champions League win with the Ukrainian club. With that milestone in mind, tell us on Twitter who you think have been the best long-serving coaches in the competition's history and why, using #matchdaylive.

We hear from Cesc Fàbregas, John Arne Riise, Yacine Brahimi and Ricardo Carvalho this week, while I will be joined by European football experts Andy Brassell (Tuesday) and Paul Saffer (Wednesday).

Our comprehensive UEFA Champions League coverage begins at 19.30CET via the UEFA.com MatchCentre and runs until 23.30. The review of the day can then be downloaded as a podcast.
