Two clubs chasing UEFA Champions League glory will do battle today in a match between Zenit Saint Petersburg and Monaco. The group-stage match scheduled for 12 p.m. ET will be held at Petrovsky Stadium in Saint Petersburg and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on Fox Soccer Plus.

Zenit St. Petersburg manager Andre Villas-Boas had this to offer ahead of today's European encounter (via UEFA): "All matches are different; it is difficult to find something in common between any two games. Monaco could set up in any formation. Maybe they haven't scored so many goals, but they can be explosive on the counterattack, which is something to be feared. We are in good physical and mental shape and both teams understand the importance of tomorrow's match in terms of the standings."

"Both teams will show their football philosophy, their style of play," he added. "We will try to win, to take the initiative. Of course, if things turn out as well as they did in Lisbon, we will be happy."
