Coverage from the Parc des Princes in Paris. There's been an Italian club in this final for the last nine years, and Inter are the favourites in this year's all-Italian clash. This is partly because they have won twice this decade (in 1991 and 1994, the last match against fellow Italians Roma), but largely because they now boast the brilliant Brazilian star Ronaldo among their players. Ronaldo, who transferred to Inter from Barcelona for £19.5m, added to his track record when he scored both winning goals in the second leg of Inter's semi-final against Spartak Moscow. He will almost certainly play for Brazil in the World Cup later this year. For Lazio, whose first European final this is, the attack will be led by another player bound for the World Cup, Croatian Alen Boksic, who scored the only goal of the semi-final against Atletico Madrid.

Highlights of the two leading games from the final day of the FA Premiership season.

Coverage from the Rasunda Stadium, Stockholm, as Chelsea strive to win the European Cup Winners' Cup for the second time in their history. In Chelsea's only other appearance in a European final, they won the trophy in 1971, beating Real Madrid 2-1 in a replay in Athens. If player-manager Gianluca Vialli's talented, multi-national squad triumphs tonight it will be the third time an English club has won this tournament since England's readmission to European competition in 1990. Chelsea secured their place in Stockholm with a stirring semi-final victory over Italian side Vicenza, with Mark Hughes volleying the aggregate winner 14 minutes from time in the second leg at Stamford Bridge. In the other semi-final Stuttgart overcame Lokomotiv Moscow of Russia with a 3-1 aggregate win.

Highlights of this afternoon's FA Cup final from Wembley between Arsenal and Newcastle United. Arsenal could put the seal on a triumphant season by completing the double with this trophy, which they last won in 1993. Newcastle, meanwhile, have had a disappointing league season and are looking to lift the FA Cup for the first time since 1955. Plus the result of the Goal of the Season competition, and highlights of this afternoon's Scottish Cup final between Hearts and Rangers.

Premiership action, including highlights of the match between Sheffield Wednesday and Arsenal, at Hillsborough plus news and goals from today's other games.

Coverage of tonight's Uefa Cup first-round, second-leg match from Lyon France. Despite looking the most likely team to score for much of the first leg, Blackburn Rovers succumbed to a spectacular late winner from Lyon defender Jacek Bak to trail on going into this evening's clash. Manager Roy Hodgson 's men need to reverse the poor scoring record that has seen them struggle to keep up with the early-season pace in the FA Premiership, especially as they can expect to face a defensive Olympique Lyonnais side eager to preserve their vital away goal scored at Ewood Park a fortnight ago.

A roundup of today's Premiership action, with the focus on Southampton v Manchester United, Leeds United v Leicester City and Wimbledon v Everton.

Featuring highlights from the 159th Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park.

Coverage of this evening's Uefa Cup second-round, first-leg match from the Olympic Stadium in Rome. Leeds endured the drama of a penalty shootout against Maritimo of Portugal to land this potentially difficult second-round clash with the club that finished fourth in Italy's Serie A last season. Roma comfortably overcame Danish side Silkeborg 3-0 on aggregate in their first-round tie and can boast a formidable multi-national squad that includes two stars of Brazil's France 98 World Cup party-Cafu and Aldair.

Highlights from three of today's FA Premiership games including Chelsea's match with early season pacesetters Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge.

Coverage of tonight's Uefa Cup second-round, second-leg match from Elland Road. Leeds battled hard in the first leg at Rome's Olympic stadium to come away defeated by the only goal of the game, a 17th minute strike by Roma's Marco Delvecchio , and were unlucky not to earn at least a draw after hitting the post twice. Their performance was made all the more impressive considering the club's recent managerial difficulties, a Uefa touchline ban for caretaker-boss David O'Leary and the second-half sending off of midfielder Bruno Ribeiro. A similar display will be needed to reverse the deficit against Roma's multi-national squad.

Coverage of tonight's Uefa Cup third-round, first-leg match from Balaidos Stadium in Spain. Liverpool provided the only success story in an otherwise disastrous Uefa Cup second round for the English clubs. Their passage to the third round was earned with a 2-2 second-leg draw in Valencia that secured an away-goals victory. Now the Reds face a tricky away match against another Spanish side, Celta Vigo, the team that knocked out Aston Villa in the last round and who have made a very strong start in their domestic league.

Tonight's football highlights are dominated by the latest episode in one of the game's fiercest rivalries, Newcastle v Sunderiand. Newcastle manager Ruud Gullit and Sunderland manager Peter Reid have each added new players to their squad over the summer, with Kieran Dyer transferring to Newcastle from Ipswich for £6 million, and former Arsenal team mates Steve Bould and Stefan Schwartz among Sunderland's new signings. The night's other highlights include Manchester United v Coventry City and Chelsea v Tottenham.

The winners of last season's Champions' League, Manchester United, take on European Cup Winners' Cup heroes Lazio in the Uefa Super Cup in Monaco. The Red Devils' amply stocked silverware cabinet could be augmented if the likes of David Beckham, Dwight Yorke and Ryan Giggs are on peak form. Their fanbase will also hope new goalkeeper Mark Bosnich , who has filled the yawning gap left by Peter Schmeichel , adapts quickly to continental competition in United's first night of European action this season. Lazio lost striker Christian Vieri to Inter Milan in a world-record deal in the close season, but their side is still one of Europe's strongest, with the Argentinian duo of Diego Simeone and Juan Veron providing midfield inspiration. Coach Sven Goran Eriksson's side narrowly missed out on the Italian league title last season, but clinched the last ever Cup Winners' Cup when they beat Real Mallorca at Villa Park in May.
