Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

ROMA SHOULD outclass Leeds in their second round, first leg, Uefa Cup tie tomorrow night. Roma come into this game fresh from a sensational 2-1 win over Fiorentina in Serie A. Liverpool should beat Valencia, 16th in La Liga following the Spaniards' 2-0 defeat at Athletic Bilbao.

Arsenal are no certainties to beat Dynamo Kiev in their Group E Champions' League game at Wembley. Dynamo Kiev, who won the "Group of Death" containing Barcelona PSV Eindhoven and Newcastle last season, could emerge with a draw. Brondby, third in the Danish league after beating Herfoelge 5-1 on Friday, could hold Manchester United to a draw in their Group D game.

On Thursday, Chelsea might be held to a draw by Copenhagen, second in the Danish league, in their second round, first leg, Cup-Winners' Cup tie at Stamford Bridge.

In the Grand Prix at Preston, Chris Small (9-4 with Ladbrokes) may upset John Parrott and Jamie Burnett (7-4 with William Hill/Tote) can surprise Nigel Bond. Burnett, is worth a nibble at 125-1 with Ladbrokes to win the tournament.

Tottenham can exploit Leicester's Martin O'Neill troubles in their Premiership game at Filbert Street tonight.
