6:36 pm
the english premier league at the moment. so is this a good time to walk away from league duty and turn attention back to the champions league? liverpool, remember, second in group a. rangers struggling, they haven't got a single goal in the champions league so far this season. atjuergen klopp is full of praise for the scottish side. at juergen klopp is full of praise for the scottish side.— at juergen klopp is full of praise for the scottish side. really good football team _ for the scottish side. really good football team and _ for the scottish side. really good football team and that _ for the scottish side. really good football team and that is - for the scottish side. really good football team and that is what. for the scottish side. really good| football team and that is what we have to prepare for. and a team getting results, and that is what they want to change definitely. we expect a proper fight, they want to change definitely. we expect a properfight, a real fighter. that is what we are prepared for. $5 fighter. that is what we are prepared for.— fighter. that is what we are prepared for. fighter. that is what we are --reared for. ~ , ., ., , prepared for. as for rangers, the -la ers prepared for. as for rangers, the players got _ prepared for. as for rangers, the players got a _ prepared for. as for rangers, the players got a chance _ prepared for. as for rangers, the players got a chance to _ prepared for. as for rangers, the players got a chance to have - prepared for. as for rangers, the players got a chance to have a . players got a chance to have a wander around the pitch just a few hours ago. they come into this game, yes, struggling in european football. they did have the run to
6:37 pm
the europa league final last season. but domestically at the moment, rangers are doing pretty well, going into this match after a 4—0 win against hearts at tynecastle. they know the pressure is off, most of the pressure will be on liverpool for this match. this is what the rangers manager had to say. it is a hue rangers manager had to say. it is a huge podium _ rangers manager had to say. it is a huge podium for— rangers manager had to say. it is a huge podium for us _ rangers manager had to say. it is a huge podium for us to _ rangers manager had to say. it is a huge podium for us to perform. - rangers manager had to say. it 3 —. huge podium for us to perform. not only for the club, but also for the players. as i said before, against a quality side and it is many years, there was a scottish team playing against english teams. so all good things to look forward to and we are excited to be here and try to get a good result. excited to be here and try to get a good result-_ good result. interestingly, these sides have _ good result. interestingly, these sides have never _ good result. interestingly, these sides have never actually - good result. interestingly, these sides have never actually faced l good result. interestingly, these . sides have never actually faced each other in competitive action. as i said, most of the pressure is on liverpool, but rangers may well fancy their chances, given how the
6:38 pm
home side are playing at the moment. it should be quite an atmosphere at anfield tomorrow night. we had the drawer earlier today for the women's champions league group stages. chelsea were among the top seeds at wsl champions. they had a much kinder draw in the end and also the only other british representative among the 16 sides. jane dougal was among the 16 sides. jane dougal was a cross that draw. jane, arsenal, they had to come to qualifying just to get into the group stage. the?t to get into the group stage. they could have _ to get into the group stage. they could have had _ to get into the group stage. they could have had it _ to get into the group stage. they could have had it a _ to get into the group stage. they could have had it a lot _ to get into the group stage. tie: could have had it a lot easier? yes, they had a really tough couple of matches against ajax, eventually beating them 32 to get to the group stages. following the draw, they now have to play, not only the holders but the record eight time champions, lyon. a few arsenal fans will have groaned when they saw what group their team was going into. lyon, definitely favourites to win, not just the group but the competition as well. however, they will be wary of arsenal, they did pretty well in
6:39 pm
the wsl, top of the league, got started the season and several members of the squad won the euros in the summer. arsenal won this competition in 2007, so they cannot be written off. also in this group is the italian champions coming event as his former manager, manages the former arsenal boss, joe montero. that will be an interesting matchup. juventus haven't had the best start to their domestic season, fourth in the league so far. the last team in group c as the swiss champions zurich, but lyon definitely favourites.- champions zurich, but lyon definitely favourites. lots of little subplots _ definitely favourites. lots of little subplots in _ definitely favourites. lots of little subplots in group - definitely favourites. lots of little subplots in group c. i definitely favourites. lots of| little subplots in group c. as definitely favourites. lots of - little subplots in group c. as we saw, chelsea is first out into group a. saw, chelsea is first out into group a, should they get out of that? you sa that a, should they get out of that? you say that and — a, should they get out of that? you say that and on _ a, should they get out of that? gm. say that and on paper, yes they should. but last season chelsea went out of the competition in the group stages. they did point to covid for being the reason for that. they did go on to in the domestic league, but you never know, do you? i am looking
6:40 pm
at their group, they were seeded as champions of england, so it should be an easier route. they will face paris saintjermain, runners—up in the french league, not the winners, the french league, not the winners, the runners—up. the semifinalists of last year's champions league. they will be a tricky team. also in group eight is real madrid, who finished third in the spanish league. they have got caroline weir used to play for manchester city. they have been playing quite well, but they are not the champions of spain and again, chelsea have a good chance against them. they desperately want to win this competition. it is the one trophy that is alluding them. they lost out to barcelona in the final in 2020 and after going out in the group stages last season, i think they will redouble their efforts this time around.— they will redouble their efforts this time around. some matches to look forward _ this time around. some matches to look forward to _ this time around. some matches to look forward to and _ this time around. some matches to look forward to and that _ this time around. some matches to look forward to and that starts - this time around. some matches to look forward to and that starts on l look forward to and that starts on october the 19th. jane dougal, many thanks. the indonesian government has started an
6:41 pm
investigation called on the police to evaluate their security procedures after at least 125 people died in a crash at a football match over the weekend. one of the well�*s were stadium disasters. police used tear gas to try and control a pitch invasion triggering a stampede. hundreds more were injured. it happened on saturday. players and staff visited the shrine dedicated to victims. their head coach said the team had come to the vigil asking forgiveness from the families impacted by the crush. he also told local media that the police had overstepped the mark. we have more from outside a hospital in east java. from outside a hospital in east java. ., ., ., ., ., java. right now, i am at one of the hositals java. right now, i am at one of the hospitais that _ java. right now, i am at one of the hospitals that treat _ java. right now, i am at one of the hospitals that treat the _ java. right now, i am at one of the hospitals that treat the victims - java. right now, i am at one of the hospitals that treat the victims and the injured supporters. the hospital told me all the victims' bodies have
6:42 pm
been claimed by their families and relatives, but they are still treating more than two dozen injured supporters who are wounded from the tragedy in the stadium. several of them are still in the intensive care unit, and others are suffering from major concussion. today the indonesian government told the press they will form a fact—finding committee to reveal what really happened at the stadium. let's get back to the top story, as promised, the east midlands derby, the first in 23 years in the top division in the premier league, leicester taking on nottingham forest with both teams down at the bottom of the table. colin hazelden is at the king power stadium. you really have set it up very nicely indeed. these local derby matches, they can be inflection
6:43 pm
points in seasons for both of the teams involved sometimes. that is deftly what happened in the fa cup match last season. nottingham forest winning so handsomely, building their confidence. you can almost draw a direct line from that to their promotion up to the premier league. it showed them what was possible. as for leicester city, after that match it was the first time that brendan rodgers came out and said his squad wasn't up to any more, it needed a refresh. as we have seen, he did not get that refresh in the transfer window. there is still plenty of talent in his team but he feels it needs more. brendan rodgers goes into this under pressure, he has credit in the bank, he has the fa cup win, european campaigns and the good premier league finishes. but some of the fans fear it has amassed a steady decline. steve cooper got what he wanted in the transfer window, but they are still, in relative terms, not big spenders. they still know
6:44 pm
they face a fight to stay in the premier league, to get off the bottom spot. that is why this evening has become so important for both these sides. for leicester city it can be a restatement of their values, every statement for brendan rodgers that he does have a talented side. on nottingham forest, it could be the confidence boost they need, the coming together of a team that mightjust see them stay up or even better the season. more on this damn local bragging rights. there is a lot on the line at the king power. you are up today with the football, to the tennis and eager schramm tech said the current schedule doesn't look of the players' welfare and she has pulled out of next month's billiejean in king cup finals in glasgow. she said she is sad not to represent poland at the event, but it only starts the day after the wta finals in texas. the three—time grand slam champion spoke to the bbc before announcing her withdrawal. the spoke to the bbc before announcing her withdrawal.— her withdrawal. the situation we have ut her withdrawal. the situation we have put in. _ her withdrawal. the situation we have put in. it — her withdrawal. the situation we have put in, it is _ her withdrawal. the situation we have put in, it is not _ her withdrawal. the situation we l

hello. some rain at times to come this week and also quite windy, especially on wednesday. potential for strong and disruptive winds on wednesday. now england and wales mainly dry evening and night to come. northern ireland will be turning wetter after midnight and into western scotland too, some really quite heavy rain and massing to 30 to 50 millimetres in some spots, maybe more into the hills as we get into tomorrow morning. a mild and windy night to come, but that rain could bring some disruption, certainly some difficult conditions on the roads first thing. it will move southwards into northern england, across a large part of wales, reach down towards parts of the midlands and south west england later on in the day tomorrow. east anglia in the southeast, staying mainly dry, some hazy brightness around. northern ireland and scotland will slowly be brightening up, a few blustery showers into the north west — on the mild side out there. going to see more heavy rain moving in as we go through tuesday night and into wednesday. here it is moving in from the west and it's that that could well be accompanied by some very strong and disruptive winds on wednesday, some uncertainty about just how strong.
