18:11 BST - Beautiful day in Madrid for it!

17:41 BST - Here's a reminder how that one played out...

17:26 BST - Are we going to get a similar game to last night's thriller?

16:19 BST - Good afternoon and welcome along for another night of Champions League action. Following on from last night's thriller between PSG and Bayern Munich, Mikel Arteta's Arsenal visit Atletico Madrid hoping to end a run of cagey performances that have seen them fall away in the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup in recent weeks. 

A victory over Newcastle last time out in the league has added some wind to the sails of the north Londoners, but they will be hoping for a statement win tonight that won't leave them in need of a scrambling fightback at the Emirates in next week's second leg.

Stick with us as we bring you all the action and drama as it unfolds in the Spanish capital!

22:49 BST - That'll do it for tonight. Thank you for joining us!

22:47 BST - After Bayern's 5-4 first-leg defeat in Paris, England captain Harry Kane said: "You saw two high-level teams in attacking play and transition. Overall, we look at their goals; the penalty was harsh, but we could have killed the game earlier on.

"We fought, and we clawed, and we're back in the tie. I thought there was amazing defending, even though there were nine goals. Sometimes the forwards will come out on top, but the back line was outstanding today," he told Amazon Prime. 

"You will always feel there are areas to improve on. We go to the Allianz with nothing to lose; we're at our best when we're intense and physical.

"It'll be who takes their moments next week, with the crowd behind us, we hope that can push us over the line."

21:57 BST - FULL-TIME: PSG 5-4 Bayern. Exhilarating stuff. Words simply can't do that match justice, but we'll try. Read our match report here.

19:57 BST - A quick aside from the Champions League: Ipswich have just got their match underway against Southampton; if the Tractor Boys take all three points, they're practically guaranteed promotion to the Premier League, as they’ll be three points ahead of Millwall in third on the final day, with at least a +18 better goal difference. So not official, but basically over the line. You can follow that match here.

18:52 BST - The team news is in, and Kane does indeed start for Bayern! His deadly partnership with Luis Diaz and Michael Olise should test PSG tonight.
