theScore is your one-stop shop for Tuesday's first-leg Champions League qualifying play-off matches, which will go a long way in determining five of the final 10 teams that will reach the 2017-18 group stage.

Young Boys 0, CSKA Moscow 1

Goals

  • CSKA Moscow: Kasim Adams - 90th minute (own goal)

Young Boys had more possession and more shots on goal, but the only net they were able to score on was their own.

FK Qarabag 1, FC Copenhagen 0

Goals

This was a one-sided affair from the start, despite the narrow scoreline. FK Qarabag dominated possession 60-40 and had more shots on goal (8) than FC Copenhagen had attempts (7).

Sporting CP 0, Steaua Bucuresti 0

What this match lacked in goal-scoring, it made up for in aggressive belligerence. Sporting CP was handed five yellow cards, while FCSB was dealt three yellows, plus Mihai Pintilii's 32nd-minute yellow, and his red card in the 80th minute.

TSG Hoffenheim 1, Liverpool 2

Goals

Nordtveit's own goal proved costly, as TSG Hoffenheim was able to notch a late marker that would have been the equalizer if it weren't for his earlier mistake. Those are the ones that will keep a player up tossing and turning all night.

Apoel Nicosia 2, Slavia Prague 0

Goals

Slavia Prague came out of the gates sluggish, and Apoel Nicosia made them pay, scoring two goals in the first 10 minutes, all but ending this match before many patrons found their seats.
