The second set of European fixtures has come around fast, with the Champions League taking priority across Tuesday and Wednesday this week.

Man Utd vs Galatasaray
Tuesday 3rd October

Manchester United suffered a 1-0 loss at home to Crystal Palace on Saturday, with Roy Hodgson becoming the first manager in Premier League history to avoid defeat in five consecutive trips to Old Trafford.

It may be their worst start to a league campaign for 34 years, but Erik ten Hag boasts an impressive record in cup competitions for The Red Devils and his side can come out on top here. The hosts won’t have it all their own way and we can see Galatasaray getting a goal with United coming out victorious in this Champions League clash.

Prediction: Man Utd 3-1 Galatasaray

Lens vs Arsenal
Tuesday 3rd October

Mikel Arteta’s men have started well this campaign, both in Europe and in the Premier League. Their first season back in the Champions League began with a bang as they thrashed PSV 4-0 at the Emirates, and although this test away in France will be tougher we still expect them to come through and claim the three points.

Prediction: Lens 1-3 Arsenal

Dortmund vs Milan
Wednesday 4th October

Neither of these teams could muster a win in Gameweek 1 of the competition; with the lacklustre Dortmund falling to a 2-0 defeat against PSG, while a toothless AC Milan failed to penetrate the visiting Newcastle at the San Siro.

There isn't a world of difference between these two sides and it's quite hard to make out if either has the requisite quality to overcome the other. A goalless draw is the play.

Prediction: Dortmund 0-0 Milan

Newcastle vs PSG
Wednesday 4th October

Newcastle managed somehow to get a point in their first Champions League match against a goal-shy AC Milan at San Siro, but the Magpies could be in for a rude awakening when they welcome the classy PSG to St James' Park on Wednesday night.

Eddie Howe's men will host a PSG side that beat Dortmund in the first round of matches and the French heavyweights can make it two wins out of two with a hard-fought 2-1 win.

Prediction: Newcastle 1-2 PSG

RB Leipzig vs Man City
Wednesday 4th October

Man City have suffered back to back defeats first in the EFL Cup (1-0 Newcastle), then the Premier League at the weekend (2-1 Wolves) and should be prepared for a hat-trick of losses.

In their last four visits to Germany, Manchester City have been unable to secure a victory, including their two recent trips to Leipzig, which resulted in a 1-1 draw last season, plus a prior 2-1 defeat at the Red Bull Arena and I can't see the story changing much here.

Prediction: RB Leipzig 2-1 Man City
