The Champions League will have more rounds of fixtures than before with 17 in total. That includes eight rounds of group games – running from 17 September until 29 January – and then an extra round before the last 16.
The Champions League will expand from 32 to 36 teams from this season, with all teams contained in a single table.
The top eight will go through to the last 16, while teams from ninth to 24th go into a new play-off round.
That means the BBC will have highlights of the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup this season.
BBC Radio 5 Live will still have live commentary of selected Champions League games this season, while TNT Sport and Amazon Prime Video will show the games live in the UK.
Amazon have first pick of the Tuesday games – 17 matches in total – with all the other matches shown on TNT.
