Assume that cert.pem is the cert you have as a text file.
>> who issued the cert?
openssl x509 -noout -in cert.pem -issuer
>> to whom was it issued?
openssl x509 -noout -in cert.pem -subject
>> for what dates is it valid?
openssl x509 -noout -in cert.pem -dates

Here are two commands which you need to run from the console to check .key and .crt files
#openssl rsa -noout -text -in www.domainname.com.key
#openssl x509 -noout -text -in www.domainname.com.crt
Check for modulus part in the output of both commands
If the modulus output match, then your .crt and .key files are matching.
