PSG–Barcelona on Tuesday, Bayern–Arsenal and Real Madrid–Leipzig on Wednesday, then the Clásico on Sunday: the week of 19–25 October brings European fixtures alongside CAF competitions and U-20 qualifying. Plan the week with our daily selection and open each match in SNA’s football tools.

Times: GMT, followed by Brazzaville time (GMT+1). Fixtures checked on Monday 19 October; open the match pages for any subsequent changes.

Three fixtures that shape the week

PSG host Barcelona at 19:00 GMT on Tuesday. Barcelona then face Real Madrid on Sunday at 20:00 GMT. With five days between those fixtures, the transition from European competition to domestic football provides a clear thread through the week.

Bayern host Arsenal at 19:00 GMT on Wednesday. Arsenal’s preceding 1–0 victory at Nottingham Forest came with just one shot on target: the points were secured, but Munich will present a different test for their attack. Arsenal then host Everton on Saturday, while Bayern visit Freiburg on Sunday.

In African club competition, Zamalek–APR on Saturday and Al Ahly–Kitara on Sunday continue last week’s pairings. In two-legged rounds, qualification depends on both results rather than a single match score. Our match pages provide access to each fixture, while the CAF calendars carry the full programme.
