Newcastle United v Valerenga. Coverage from St James' Park of Newcastle's Uefa Cup third-round, second-leg game against Norwegian side Valerenga. The Magpies will start as favourites to progress to the last 16 against a side who did not manage a win in the first two rounds of the competition.
Coverage from Fratton Park of this all-Premiership FA Cup quarter-final. Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp has guided the Premiership new boys into the last eight for the first time since 1992 but they face a daunting task against the visitors from north London, who haven't been beaten in the competition since the final and are aiming for a record-equalling third successive triumph in the competition. But, in their fifth-round victory over Liverpool last month, Pompey have already shown that they can overcome supposedly superior opposition.

Coverage from the New Den as the two FA Cup underdogs compete in the quarter-finals, ensuring another non-Premiership side will progress to the semi-finals. First division Millwall will start as favourites to reach their first FA Cup semi-final since 1937 and will be helped by the experience of player/manager Dennis Wise, who has been on three Cup-winning sides. But the Lions face fierce competition from second division Rovers, who have reached this stage of the competition three times in the last five seasons and are enjoying something of a renaissance under new manager Brian Little.

Coverage from the Nou Camp of the second leg of Celtic's fourth-round tie against Barcelona. Martin O'Neill 's side were runners-up in the competition last year, beating the likes of Liverpool, Celta Vigo and Stuttgart, and will be hoping to go one better this time around. But first they have to make it past Barcelona to the quarter-finals, and on home soil the Spanish side will be no pushover.
Rangers v Celtic. The reigning champions bid to halt a four-match losing streak against their Old Firm rivals, who seem certain to succeed them as SPL kings. With a huge league lead, as well as progression to the last four of the Scottish Cup at the expense of Rangers, Celtic are on course for a domestic double.
Highlights of the friendly between Sweden and England in Gothenburg, one of Sven-Goran Erikson's last chances to assess players prior to Euro 2004.

Villarreal v Celtic. Coverage from Spain of the Uefa Cup quarter-final second leg. Are Martin O'Neill 's Celtic side able to go one step nearer to emulating their march to the final last season against unfancied Villarreal?
Coverage of the annual showpiece event in the women's football calendar as London rivals clash at Loftus Road. Charlton endured the pain of defeat at the final hurdle last year when they were beaten by Fulham Ladies.

This will be the north Londoners' sixth FA Cup final appearance in 12 years and they have won five of them.
Coverage of the climax of European football's second club competition from the impressive Nya Ullevi stadium in Gothenburg.

But their Spanish opponents, impressive throughout their own domestic season, will be hoping to make up for losses in their last two appearances in European finals, both times in the Champions League. Extra-time and the silver-goal rule will apply if the match is deadlocked at full-time, with penalties if the stalemate hasn't been broken by the end of the 30 minutes.
Coverage from Cardiff's Millennium Stadium of the 123rd final, in which the Goliaths of the north take on the south London underdogs. Having defeated holders Arsenal in the semi-finals United will be looking to win the oldest cup competition in the world for the 11th time. They face a Division One team who will be playing in Europe next season whatever the outcome, and who are the first non-Premiership outfit in the final since Sunderland in 1992.
