The second leg of the UEFA Champions League playoffs continue on the FOX Sports networks next Tuesday, August 26 and Wednesday, August 27, to determine which teams advance to the highly-anticipated group stage rounds.

Additionally, fans witness the return of the CONCACAF Champions League as four MLS teams begin group stage play.
