The big boys of Europe get started in earnest this week after a Monday night domestic appetizer.
The UEFA Champions League group stage kicks off on Tuesday night with a set of eight matches highlighted by Barcelona taking on Juventus in a clash of long standing European giants.
The Europa League takes center stage on Thursday as the lesser of Europe’s continental competitions pits large clubs against smaller foes.
