Pre-game warmups are underway on the field. 

We are live here inside Notre Dame Stadium in Notre Dame, Indiana for ACC football between the number one Clemson Tigers and fourth-ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Check back here before game time for pre-game updates, news and notes, warm ups, and more live from Notre Dame.

Do not miss a detail of the match with the live updates and commentaries of VAVEL. Follow along with us all the details, commentaries, analysis and lineups for this Clemson Tigers vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish game.

Brian Kelly's Irish come into the biggest game of their season as new members of the ACC for this weird COVID college football season with much still to prove about their squad. Senior quarterback Ian Book has played Clemson in big games and lost in the 2018 College Football Playoff Semifinal at the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic but the ND quarterback has grown since then and become a more complete and well-rounded player. Book's poise and ability to create with his legs and extend plays will be key to the Irish's chances tonight.

Following a very near-shocking upset last week at home in Death Valley at Memorial Stadium in Clemson, South Carolina against the Boston College Eagles 34-28, the Tigers come into a big road game in South Bend with some pressure on them and a considerable chip on their shoulder. Dabo Swinney loves to play the role of the underdog more than most and with Lawrence out and many doubting Clemson, expect the Tigers to come out ready to go and locked in with a big game spotlight in primetime in the Game of the Week. Defensively, Brent Venables' defense will look to bring back that vaunted pass rush with their stud true freshman defensive lineman Bryan Breese and Myles Murphy while correcting some of the pass coverage issues from the week before against BC.

Possibly the biggest game of the 2020 college football season in terms of College Football Playoff implications features the two top teams in the ACC, adding conference championship implications to this big Clemson-Notre Dame matchup in South Bend. The Tigers, the number one team in the land, come into Notre Dame, Indiana to face the fourth-ranked Fighting Irish at Notre Dame Stadium having beaten the Irish in several big game meetings in previous years. Head coach Brian Kelly's Irish have to prove they can win the big game while Dabo Swinney's squad will be without star quarterback and Heisman Trophy frontrunner Trevor Lawrence for the second straight week after the junior tested positive for the coronavirus late last week ahead of their near-titanic upset loss at home against conference opponent Boston College. The Tigers will star true freshman quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, a five-star recruit out of Southern California, for the second straight game. Notre Dame can ill afford a loss for their College Football Playoff hopes while a loss for the Tigers will make it much more interesting for Clemson's hopes at the CFP.
