Atletico Madrid
Defending champions Atletico Madrid have lost Diego Costa to Chelsea, which might explain their slightly unflattering performance in the new season of La Liga. Parking at number three, the side have won three of their last five league matches while the remainders were draws. Although they remain unbeaten in the Spanish top-flight football, they are in constant pressure by the current leaders, Barcelona, as well as their upcoming foes, Sevilla who have made impressive stunts to put themselves in the top two. In addition, they lost all the points to Olympiakos from their latest appearance in the Champions League.

Sevilla
La Liga’s breakthrough club of the new season, Sevilla made a comfortable ascent to the top two after earning victories [almost] week after week. They are currently level on points with frontrunners Barcelona and were only knocked off the table’s summit by goal difference. The Sevillistas have already scored a total of nine league goals, with triumphs against Espanyol, Getafe, Cordoba, and Real Sociedad. At the Europa League, they pulled off a two-goal clean sheet against Feyenoord, thanks to the brilliant passes by Gerard Deulefeu which were successfully converted by Grzegorz Krychowiak and Stephane M’Bia.

Barcelona
Out of the squad, new keeper Marc-André ter Stegen, Douglas, Sandro, Pedro, Marc Bartra, Martín Montoya and Gerard Piqué arguably have the most to gain from added minutes. Whether Lucho thinks it is necessary to instill that in his players at this point in the season is up to him. But it’s something that needs to be addressed before injuries start to make Lucho’s choices for him. Piqué’s lack of confidence against Athletic Bilbao was smellier than a rotting gazelle on the Serengeti, and any poacher of a forward worth his mettle will put as much pressure as possible on the out-of-form defender. By the same token, a rusty Adriano and Montoya could prove shaky cover for Jordi Alba at left back once his swashbuckling tendencies inevitably get him a hamstring injury.

Bayern Munchen
Pep Guardiola’s Bayern Munich experiment has thus far been largely characterised by a free-flowing, dynamic style that can only be praised. Yet, despite their utter dominance of German domestic football, there can be no mistaking that Champions League glory is the ultimate prize for the Bavarian giants. They seem likely to miss the talismanic figure of Arjen Robben this week due to injury, while Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thiago Alcantara are also set to miss the action. Javi Martinez is also unavailable, which will almost certainly necessitate the inclusion of Xabi Alonso in the holding role alongside Lahm.

I’m certain that Pellegrini will opt for one striker up front, considering the talent at Munich’s disposal.

CSKA Moscow vs Bayern Munchen

Home - CSKA Moscow
Last away matches - W-W-L-L-W-W

CSKA Moscow got off to a disastrous start in this group two weeks ago when they went down 5-1 at Roma. They were 4-0 down in no time and did fairly well to limit the damage as much as they did. Since then CSKA have won their last three matches in all competitions but they go into this match without the suspended Pontus Wernbloom and Alan Dzagoev, with the latter being a particularly big loss to them.

Away - Bayern Munchen
Last away matches - W-L-W-D-D-W

Bayern Munich weren’t overly convincing in their opening match in the group against Man City but a late goal from Jerome Boateng got the job done and they’ll be looking to enhance their position in this group in this match. Bayern are looking very solid at the minute and haven’t conceded a goal in their last five in all competitions. Franck Ribery will be hoping to return from injury in this match to give Pep Guardiola another attacking option.

APOEL Nicosia vs Ajax

Home - APOEL Nicosia
Last away matches - W-W-L-L-W-W

Apoel Nicosia the home team has 2 wins in their last 4 games and 1 draw. They had a good start to this season before they met Barcelona in the Nou Camp and was defeated by 1-0. If we don’t count that then they were undefeated in their last 3 games and scored 7 goals while conceding 1. But their defeat didn’t come as a surprise. The fact that they were able to hold Barcelona to only 1 goal meant they played well and their defense was good. Their league performance proves that too. Its up to them that either they take that loss positively and try to win this match or take it negatively which will hinder their performance in the next game. In my eyes they will be favored to win this game. Leading the rankings in the current season of the Cypriot top-tier league, APOEL are clearly one of the stongest sides to come out of Cyprus and compete in the UEFA tournament. Form-wise, however, the side are not necessarily displaying a perfect façade. In the ir last five matches, they have won three times, forced a draw once, and were beaten once as well. The only defeat from this streak was incurred from the Champions League Group stage opening, when they were beaten by Spanish side Barcelona and landed at the bottom of the group table.

Away - Ajax
Last away matches - W-W-W-L-W-L

Ajax managed to hold off Paris Saint Germain in their last Champions league match. Their play was outstanding and they were good at both offense and defense. There league performance is good and they are looking to win this match to keep their chance to go farther in the tournament. So they will play their best and the fact that they managed to hold of PSG should give them a lot of confidence. One of the Netherlands’ most successful teams, Ajax have been a perennial squad in the Champions League; in fact, they have already won the title four times. Their Group stage debut in the new season of the UEFA top-tier tournament gave them one point to rank in the mid-table, thanks to a grueling and highly entertaining battle they engaged with French giants Paris Saint-Germain. However, they need more than just a draw from their continental campaign and their chance to win back the Cup would only be strengthened if they make it on top—or near the top—of the Group round.

BATE Borisov vs Athletic Bilbao

Home - BATE Borisov
Last away matches - D-L-W-D-W-D

BATE will be in a lot of pressure to win this game and try to avoid two consecutive loss as they were hammered in their last game against Porto. They were beaten by 6-0 and that will take a toll on the players. So they are desperate to win this game and gain back some of that lost confidence. Their unbeaten streak came to a standstill in their last game and they played very poor after a few goals were scored.The only side from Belarus to compete in the Champions League multiple times, BATE do not disappoint in terms of local flare and international charisma. The squad have managed to put their losses at a minimum in their past 32 matches—having lost zero times in the Premier League. However, the Champions League is a different story and while their form is generally okay, their UEFA Group stage debut was far from acceptable. BATE suffered the worst defeat of the tournament’s opening, conceding six goals to Porto while scoring zero. Their subsequent battle was not that impressive either, as they battled out a goalless draw against Dinamo Minsk in the Belarusian top-tier football.

Away - Athletic Bilbao
Last away matches - L-L-L-D-D-W

Athletic on the other hand were beaten by Malaga, Barcelona and Rayo. The moment they manage a win, they loose the next game. Its been tough for them but such poor result doesn’t do justice to their capability. Their last match was a draw against Eibar. They are finding it hard score while allowing a lot of goals but they are a good team and if they manage to play their best then they will be able to pull of a victory in this match. They are eager to get back to wining and considering their players and team capability, they are the favorites to win this game. Bilbao’s last five matches were largely unimpressive. While they managed to hold Eibar in La Liga and Shakhtar in the Champions League, they failed to earn all the marbles from Barcelona, Granada, and Rayo Vallecano—all in the Spanish top-flight tournament. However, the team have a strong record in UEFA. They have been runner up twice in the Champions League, first in the 1976-77 season and the second in the 2011-12 fixtures. They have also been Europa League participants several times and were winners of the Copa del Rey in 24 non-consecutive editions

Home - Zenit St. Petersburg
Last away matches - W-W-W-W-W-W

Zenit made a strong start in its Champions League campaign when it scored 2 goals and kept Benfica at bay. This automatically earned them 3 crucial points that will somehow, make them a bit more secured in their upcoming matches. However, the squad cannot afford to be too complacent since Monaco, like them, is eager to advance in the competition’s next stage. Zenit’s winning streak has also ended when Spartak held them to a draw last weekend. Hopefully, this will not affect their confidence and use it as inspiration instead. The team is solid defensively while scoring an average of almost three goals per game. This does not stop at the borders of Russia, since even in the European Cup, this observation is confirmed. Zenit went prevail in Portuguese Benfica, a regular in the competition, with a score of 2-0. There is therefore a strong team that is really not easy to play and is in great shape. Surely this is not the best time to play the Russians.

Away - AS Monaco
Last away matches - W-L-W-L-W-D

The season of Monaco is much more complicated however. A crisis of results occurred, undoubtedly from the combined departures of James Rodriguez and Radamel Falcao who have not been replaced qualitatively and the arrival of new coach Leonardo Jardim, the game project has struggled to implement.Despite an impressive start in the Champions League, AS Monaco is not devoid of problems in the domestic league. The squad continues to struggle after the loss of its star players such as James Rodriguez and Radamel Falcao. Its current situation is far-flung shot from what it accomplished last season. As a matter of fact, the squad has become a relegation favorite. With its dismal run in Ligue 1, AS Monaco could only hope that they still get the chance of scoring a great performance in the Champions League. you can also check Best Basketball Odds @Sbobet for basketball matches

Ludogorets is a newly established Bulgarian club. They play their home matches in UEFA competitions in Sofia, 400 km away from Razgrad. Last year they had a good run in Europa League, until they were stopped by Valencia in round of 16, it was first time when Ludogorets faced Spanish club. Bulgarian side eliminated Steaua Bucuresti in order to reach group phase of Champions League. Romanian defender Moti was hero of the second-leg as he saved two penalties in penalty shoot-out. In the first match of group stage Ludogorets did well and almost stopped Liverpool at Anfield Road. In the final seconds of the match goalkeeper Borjan made a mistake and referee gave a doubtful penalty for The Reds, which denied Ludogorets from making a big surprise. Now, coach Georgi Dermendzhiev is looking forward for the home match against Real Madrid. “They are the best team in the world and they have best players. It’s an honour for us to play against them. They won European Cup ten times and they are reigning champions.

Real Madrid are obvious favourites of this clash, however coach Carlo Ancelotti assures his team won’t underestimate their rivals. “There are no average teams in Champions League. Everyone saw how well they played in Liverpool,” said Ancelotti. He was also asked about best Ludogorets’ player, but he denied to point just one footballer: “Our strategy is to stop the team, not particular players. I was surprised with their courageous play at Anfield, they have quality, it’s a dynamic team, very dangerous on counter attacks, they play with high intensity. It won’t be an easy match.” Some people believe Los Blancos will rotate with the squad and rest best players. “I don’t plan rotations. When I see that player is tired then I rest him. First group matches are very important and it’s imperative for us to have 6 points after 2 games,” said Italian manager.

Barcelona
Out of the squad, new keeper Marc-André ter Stegen, Douglas, Sandro, Pedro, Marc Bartra, Martín Montoya and Gerard Piqué arguably have the most to gain from added minutes. Whether Lucho thinks it is necessary to instill that in his players at this point in the season is up to him. But it’s something that needs to be addressed before injuries start to make Lucho’s choices for him. Piqué’s lack of confidence against Athletic Bilbao was smellier than a rotting gazelle on the Serengeti, and any poacher of a forward worth his mettle will put as much pressure as possible on the out-of-form defender. By the same token, a rusty Adriano and Montoya could prove shaky cover for Jordi Alba at left back once his swashbuckling tendencies inevitably get him a hamstring injury.

APOEL Nicosia
With a Cyprus Supercup and two victories in the first two rounds of the Cypriot Championship in the back pocket, APOEL is off to a usual good start. And considering manager Giorgos Donis made off with a league and cup double last season, he certainly knows how to get the better of his opponents.Defensive veteran John Arne-Riise is perhaps the most recognizable name in the Cyprus squad, but his fitness will prevent him from taking the field. Greek central defender Anastasios Papazoglou has just returned from injury and will bolster the back line tasked with marking Barcelona’s pesky strikers.

Bayern Munchen
Pep Guardiola’s Bayern Munich experiment has thus far been largely characterised by a free-flowing, dynamic style that can only be praised. Yet, despite their utter dominance of German domestic football, there can be no mistaking that Champions League glory is the ultimate prize for the Bavarian giants. They seem likely to miss the talismanic figure of Arjen Robben this week due to injury, while Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thiago Alcantara are also set to miss the action. Javi Martinez is also unavailable, which will almost certainly necessitate the inclusion of Xabi Alonso in the holding role alongside Lahm.

Manchester City
Manuel Pellegrini will be banned from the touchline on Wednesday following comments he made in the wake of their Champions League exit to Barcelona last season. Pablo Zabaleta is also suspended, which will see the vastly experienced figure of Bacary Sagna charged with the unenviable task of marking Franck Ribery. I’m certain that Pellegrini will opt for one striker up front, considering the talent at Munich’s disposal. Fernandinho and Toure will offer a muscular force in midfield, while Pellegrini would be wise to utilise the electrifying pace of Navas on the counterattacks.

The away team won their first (tight!) match in UEFA Europe League against Estoril, with a penalty goal from Luuk de Jong. The red and whites are first in Eredivisie, but they lost their Sunday match against Heerenveen. In Europe they look dominant, as they have triumphed in all five matches this season, including two away games. Their previous victory in Moscow was against CSKA in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League group stage.Eindhoven survived an acid test against Estoril in its first Europa League encounter, thanks to Luuk de Jong’s converted penalty. The said goal was the sole goal in a match that could have ended in a scoreless stalemate.
