The away leg will be played at the Muengersdorfer Stadion in Cologne. Kick off will be at 5.30 pm. This is local German time, corresponding to 4.30pm in England. The match is not being shown on television in England (see below, scandalously it seems there might not even be a highlights programme. However people with satellite dishes will be able to pick it up live from Astra on German channel ZDF. Apparently the following onformation might be useful for picking up ZDF: Transponder 33, Frequency 10,96425, Polarisation horizontal, Encoding PAL clear. Be warned - they might switch to the Celtic-Hamburg game at some point.
We've now heard that SKY sports 3 will be showing the match live. Presumably some pubs in the Highbury area will be open for it. Terry Neill's Sports Bar (just off Holborn Viaduct) will be showing it too.
