A clash between two top-10 welterweights will headline tonight’s UFC Fight Night, as Vicente Luque and Belal Muhammad go head-to-head for the second time.

Luque (21-7-1) knocked out Muhammad (20-3, 1 No Contest) within 90 seconds when they fought one another in 2016, and the Brazilian has gone on to win 10 of his 12 subsequent bouts.

Ranked fifth at 170lbs, Luque carries a four-fight win streak into this Saturday’s main event, with finishes in each of those victories. No 6 welterweight Muhammad, meanwhile, has won six in a row – a No Contest against Leon Edwards aside – with his last four wins coming via decision.

The American, 33, will be keen to leapfrog Luque in the rankings while avenging his loss to the 30-year-old.

Here’s all you need to know.

What time does it start?

The prelims are scheduled to begin at 10.30pm BST (2.30pm PT, 4.30pm CT, 5.30pm ET) on Saturday 16 April, with the main card following at 1.30am BST (5.30pm PT, 7.30pm CT, 8.30pm ET) on Sunday 17 April.
