Atalanta vs Club Brugge KV
Atalanta entered this competition after suffering a heavy defeat against PSG, losing 4–0 on their opponent’s turf. The team led by Ivan Juric simply couldn’t respond to the quick attacks from the French side, and their defense seemed unfocused and fragile. With such a score, now they are under significant pressure to perform in front of their fans.
In the last league round, they faced Juventus and can be pleased to have secured a point. After 5 matches this season, they remain unbeaten with 3 wins and 2 draws. They have excellent individual players in attack like Krstovic and Sulemana, and the midfield with Pasalic and de Roon looks solid.
On the other hand, Club Brugge KV started sensationally with a convincing 4–1 victory over Monaco. The Belgian team played bravely, employing high pressing and quick counterattacks. Mamadou and Vanaken were a real threat, taking advantage of every hesitation from their opponents. The team’s form is solid, after the match against Monaco, they have two wins and a draw in the league. Brugge comes to Bergamo with confidence and without pressure, making them a dangerous rival.
Atalanta will be motivated to earn points in front of their home crowd, but Brugge appears more organized and has shown that they have an excellent attacking line.

Kairat Almaty vs Real Madrid
Kairat Almaty faced a defeat in the first round of this competition, losing 4–1 to Sporting. Even though they managed to score a goal near the end of the match, their defense was completely outpaced. The team struggles with pace and physical fitness at this level. They have three consecutive wins in a league that is much lower than the level of their opponents in this competition. Although the home crowd always creates a strong atmosphere, the reality is that this team can barely compete with the strongest.
On the other hand, Real Madrid started with a 2–1 victory over Marseille. The “Kings” didn’t play spectacularly, as Carvajal received a red card in the 72nd minute, and both goals were scored by Mbappe from a penalty, but they showed their routine and experience. Tchouameni was the engine in the midfield, while Vinicius and Rodrygo constantly tested the French defense.
Xabi Alonso’s team is in great form, but in the last round of La Liga, they were defeated by Atl. Madrid with a score of 5:2, which is unusual for Real’s defense to concede 5 goals in one match.
Real Madrid will take advantage of the opportunity for easy points and to improve their goal difference, even though rotations are possible, they are still favored.

Atl. Madrid vs Eintracht Frankfurt
Atl. Madrid lost 3–2 to Liverpool in an exciting match during the first round, conceding a goal that cost them a point in the 92nd minute. The team led by Simeone looked dangerous in attack, with Marcos Llorente scoring both goals. However, the defense wasn’t up to the task and allowed too many easy goals.
Their confidence is high, especially after their victory over Real Madrid in the last round of La Liga, where they won 5:2. Atletico will be boosted by their home crowd, but they need to improve their defensive organization if they want to play perfectly.
Eintracht Frankfurt put on a show against Galatasaray, winning 5–1. The Germans played with amazing energy and constant pressure. Burkardt, Knauff, and Uzun were the main stars in the attack, while the midfield looked solid. The team is in great shape, even though they have some weaknesses in defense.
In the Bundesliga, they are the team that plays the most effective matches, and after 5 games, they have an average of 6 goals per game. Their confidence is high, and even though they are playing away, their attack seems ready to cause problems.
Atletico is strong at home and has a winning momentum, but Frankfurt has a great midfield and offensive power to earn points. We expect at least 3 goals during the match.

Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham
Bodo/Glimt played a good match as guests in the first round against Slavia Prague, which ended in a 2–2 draw. The Norwegians showed determination and character, coming back in the game even after falling behind twice. The home field in Bodo, with its artificial turf, has always given them an advantage, allowing them to play fast and direct football.
The team has a relatively stable form with three wins, two draws, and in their last five matches. Key players will be Hogh and Bassi, who can create chances against anyone. At home, they are excellent and are fighting for first place with Viking.
Tottenham started with a win at home, beating Villarreal 1–0. Even though the score was close, they looked solid and controlled the game well. Bentancur played great in the midfield, and the defense was strong with Spence. Thomas Frank’s team is in excellent form, remaining unbeaten in their last 5 matches across all competitions, with three wins. They have the quality to dominate, but they need to be careful of the host’s quick counterattacks.
The English team has more individual talent, but Bodo/Glimt won’t easily give up points at home and will fight until the end.

Chelsea vs Benfica
Chelsea started with a loss of 1–3 against Bayern Munich, which showed the weakness of their defense. Enzo Maresca’s team is struggling with consistency, having only one win, three losses, and a draw in their last five matches. Even though they create chances, their finishing is poor, and forwards Pedro Joao and Pedro Neto are performing well, but the defense often makes mistakes.
In the last round of the Premier League, they were defeated by Brighton with a score of 1:3. For Chelsea, this match is crucial to regain their confidence after a period of weak performance.
Benfica surprised everyone by losing at home to Karabakh with a score of 2–3. This was a shock for the Portuguese champion, who is usually very strong on their home ground. In their last 3 league matches, they have two wins and a draw, showing that they are not in bad form. The attack with Pavlidis and Schjelderup is dangerous, but the defense makes some mistakes. On the bench is the great Jose Mourinho, who is returning to Portuguese football after 21 years.
This is a match between two teams under pressure, where caution will be more important than taking risks. Both teams will want to earn 3 points, but more importantly, they will want to avoid leaving without any points.

Galatasaray vs Liverpool
Galatasaray had a terrible start with a 1–5 loss to Eintracht. They looked disorganized, especially in defense, where they left too much open space. In their home league, they are dominating and are in first place with the maximum points after 7 matches played. Leroy Sane is in the middle of the field, alongside Gundogan and Yilmaz. Coach Okan Buruk needs to find a way to make the team competitive in European competitions.
Liverpool played a real thriller against Atletico and won 3–2. The team led by Arne Slot showed their signature energy and attacking style, with Salah and Ekitike taking the spotlight. The midfield featuring Szoboszlai and Mac Allister looks well-balanced. The “Reds” are in great shape with 7 wins and just one loss in their last 8 matches.
Before this game, they faced their first defeat of the season in the Premier League against Crystal Palace away from home. Even though the defense sometimes allows too much, their attack is strong enough to score at least one more goal.
Galatasaray is always a tough opponent when they have the support of their home crowd, but the pace of play and the individual quality that Liverpool possesses is expected to be decisive in this match.

Inter vs Slavia Prague
Inter kicked off the group stage with a 2–0 victory over Ajax in Amsterdam. The “Nerazzurri” looked strong and controlled the game from start to finish. Thuram scored both goals, with Calhanoglu assisting on each one, making Cristian Chivu’s team look complete. The defense, led by Bastoni and Acerbi, was solid and didn’t allow many chances. Inter is on a three-match winning streak and welcomes Slavia Prague with full confidence.
Slavia Prague played to a 2–2 draw against Bodo/Glimt, a match where they took the lead twice but let their opponents come back. The Czech champions are tough and always dangerous with set pieces and quick counterattacks. However, their defense is vulnerable, which could be a key issue against Inter, who knows how to punish mistakes. They haven’t lost in their last 19 matches across all competitions, showing good form, but the level of their current opponents is much stronger.
The Italians have too much quality and defensive stability to allow any surprises, so we expect Slavia Prague to be defeated after a long period.

vs 
Marseille vs Ajax
Marseille lost in Madrid against Real with a score of 2–1, even though they played carefully and had chances to do more. Roberto De Zerbi’s team has potential with experienced players like Hojbjerg and Pavard, but they struggle with finishing. In their last five matches, they have three wins and two losses, which is a decent record. Playing in front of their home crowd at the “Velodrome,” Marseille is always motivated and will want to take advantage of the opponent’s weaknesses.
Ajax started with a loss of 0-2 against Inter and looked helpless. The Dutch giant is in crisis, in their last five matches, they have only two wins. Their defense is the weakest point, and the midfield lacks enough creativity to control the game at this level. The young players in attack have potential, but they lack the experience for big matches. In the domestic league, they have 4 wins and three draws, placing them in 3rd position, but the fight for the title this season will be tough against PSV and Feyenoord.
The French team has the advantage of playing at home and will take advantage of Ajax’s crisis. However, both teams have weaknesses in defense, so we can expect at least 3 goals during the match.

Pafos vs Bayern Munich
Pafos kicked off their debut in the group with a surprising 0–0 draw against Olympiacos Piraeus in Athens. The Cypriot team played disciplined and with strong defense, managing to earn a valuable point. For them, every point gained is a success since it’s their first time in such a big competition. They are dominating in their domestic league and after the first round, they achieved three victories. The team is led by the Spaniard Juan Carcedo, who must be quite pleased with the team’s performance.
On the other hand, Bayern Munich secured a convincing win over Chelsea with a score of 3–1 in the first round. Harry Kane was once again at his best, scoring two goals, and supported by Olise and Diaz, Bayern’s attack looks unstoppable.
Vincent Kompany’s team is on an impressive streak of 11 consecutive wins across all competitions. They have great depth in their squad and can rotate players without losing quality. The German champions have a clear goal, to finish first in the group and dominate in their domestic league.
Pafos will try to earn a point, but Bayern’s class is just too high, and we expect them to secure another convincing victory in this match.
