The 2025/26 UEFA Champions League league phase kicked off with strong performances from teams like PSG and Barcelona, but early stumbles for others such as Chelsea and Newcastle. PSG leads with a 4-0 win over Atalanta, while Barcelona edged Barcelona 1-2 against PSG. English clubs showed inconsistency, with Arsenal and Manchester City securing victories amid a packed schedule.
Arsenal suffered their first Premier League defeat since August, falling to a late Emi Buendia winner against Aston Villa. The loss narrowed their lead over Manchester City to two points, but an easing injury crisis and kinder fixtures offer Mikel Arteta a chance to regroup. With Champions League and league games ahead, rotation could be key to maintaining their title challenge.
