Champions League

Do you remember the Champions League? Maybe not, considering it’s been more than three months since the last match in this year’s competition. We are now in the round of 16, with four games this week and another four next week (the second legs are in March). The draw of the round is certainly PSG against Bayern Munich on Tuesday night. – Tuesday and Wednesday, RTE 2, Virgin Media, BT Sport and LiveScore

League of Ireland

Home football is back and newly promoted Cork City host Bohemians in the opening game on RTE television. The 2023 SSE Airtricity League season begins on Friday with four Premier Division games, with Sligo Rovers hosting Shamrock Rovers on Saturday night. The league live streaming service is back too, but for others, RTE will be showing at least 18 Premier Division games. – Friday, RTE

All Star Weekend

The NBA All-Star Weekend is a basketball festival – made up of exhibitions and events, culminating in the All-Star game on Sunday night. The Main Event sees Team Giannis versus Team LeBron in Salt Lake City. The eastern team includes players like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant.
