Galatasaray and Bayern Munich put their unbeaten Champions League records on the line during a top-of-the-table Group A clash at Rams Park on Tuesday evening.
The hosts left Manchester United's Old Trafford base with a stunning 3-2 win on matchday two, while Thomas Tuchel's team also came from behind to sink Copenhagen 2-1.
We say: Galatasaray 2-3 Bayern Munich
A ravaged Bayern backline should be there for the taking for an in-form Galatasaray crop, who have scored multiple goals in 11 of their last 12 fixtures and can play with the handbrake off against Tuchel's charges.
However, Buruk's defence may not have the answers to an onslaught or two from the visitors' own attacking stars, and while we expect a captivating affair with the net rippling a few times, we place our faith in Bayern to emerge victorious yet again.

Inter Milan seek consecutive Champions League group-stage wins when they host Red Bull Salzburg in a matchday three encounter at San Siro on Tuesday.
Last season's beaten finalists are unbeaten in Group D, but Simone Inzaghi should be wary of their opponents capable of stunning the home support in Milan.
We say: Inter Milan 2-0 Red Bull Salzburg
Even though Salzburg are unbeaten on their travels all season, Inter should make their technical superiority count against the visitors without several players in the meeting at San Siro.

Third time could be the charm for Manchester United in the Champions League, as the Red Devils - who are reeling from the loss of the late, great Sir Bobby Charlton - welcome Danish outfit Copenhagen to Old Trafford for Tuesday's Group A clash.
Erik ten Hag's men remain without a single point in the section after two matches, while their visitors sit one point and one place better off than their more esteemed hosts.
We say: Manchester United 2-1 Copenhagen
Another uncomfortable evening could be in store for Man United this week, as a Copenhagen side who are an extremely tough nut to crack away from home have gone toe-to-toe with their Group A counterparts so far and are rarely quelled in the final third.
A lack of recuperation time will do neither manager any favours either, but the Red Devils still possess goal threats from all areas of the field, and we have faith in Ten Hag's side to belatedly get off the mark in the Champions League, but it may not be too pretty.

Lens vs. PSV (Tuesday, 8.00pm)

Top meets bottom in Champions League Group B at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis on Tuesday night, as Ligue 1 outfit Lens welcome PSV Eindhoven to their raucous headquarters.
Franck Haise's side claimed an impressive scalp over Arsenal on matchday two, sinking the Gunners 2-1, while the Dutch giants rescued a point in dramatic circumstances during a 2-2 stalemate with Sevilla.
We say: Lens 1-2 PSV Eindhoven
Even with a refreshed Wahi back to lead the charge, Lens should not be expected to go toe-to-toe with PSV in an attacking sense, and their showing against Le Havre certainly left something to be desired.
Haise may chalk up that off day to the recent international break, but faced with the PSV goalscoring juggernaut, Les Sang et Or - for all of their defensive nous - could be overwhelmed.

Having somehow prolonged their unbeaten start to the 2023-24 Premier League season, Arsenal seek a return to winning ways in Champions League Group B against Europa League holders Sevilla on Tuesday night.
Mikel Arteta's men came up short in a 2-1 loss away to Lens on matchday two, while Los Palanganas and PSV Eindhoven cancelled each other out in a pulsating 2-2 stalemate.
We say: Sevilla 0-1 Arsenal
Whether an opening draw with Real Madrid is indicative of a prolonged new manager bounce remains to be seen, but an inconsistent Sevilla side remain without a tried-and-tested formula for success and are lacking the enviable talent in reserve that their visitors boast.
Another tight affair should certainly be in store, but as was the case at Stamford Bridge, substitutes could make the world of difference in a nervy success for Arsenal, although a performance akin to their first half against Chelsea will put paid to those hopes.

Real Madrid will be bidding to make it three straight wins in the Champions League this season when they continue their Group C campaign away to Braga on Tuesday night.
Los Blancos are top of the section on six points from an available six, three clear of third-placed Braga, who have won one and lost one of their first two games in what is a difficult group.
We say: Braga 1-2 Real Madrid
Braga will enter this match in excellent form, and there is no question that they have the players to hurt Real Madrid on Tuesday night. We are expecting the Portuguese outfit to score, but the away team's experience and additional quality should allow them to secure an important three points.

Union Berlin will be bidding to end an eight-game losing run in all competitions when they resume their Champions League Group C campaign against Napoli on Tuesday night.
The Bundesliga side are currently bottom of the section on zero points, having lost their opening two games to Real Madrid and Braga, while Napoli are second, picking up three points from an available six.
We say: Union Berlin 1-2 Napoli
Union Berlin desperately need a positive result, but we are finding it difficult to back them to avoid another defeat here. Napoli are without their star player, but the Italian outfit are still full of quality, and we are expecting them to navigate their way to an important win.

Benfica seek their first Champions League points in Group D when they welcome Real Sociedad to Estadio da Luz on Tuesday.
The Portuguese outfit have lost both games against Red Bull Salzburg and Inter Milan, while the La Liga outfit secured maximum points in Austria on matchday two.
We say: Benfica 2-1 Real Sociedad
With Benfica's situation in Group D almost precarious, the Portuguese giants should eke out a victory over Sociedad to close the gap on the current joint-leaders to one.
