Arsenal travels to Slavia Prague seeking to extend their perfect Champions League record with Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard among the tournament’s top performers. Manchester City faces Borussia Dortmund, with Erling Haaland continuing to attract global attention and Pep Guardiola proclaiming the striker has reached the level of Messi and Ronaldo.

Juventus, desperate for their first Champions League win, hosts Sporting CP after a turbulent start, with Dusan Vlahovic expected to play a key role. Galatasaray is favored against struggling Ajax, with Mauro Icardi and Burak Yilmaz leading the Turkish side’s attack. PSV Eindhoven, fresh off a six-goal rout of Napoli, travels to face Olympiakos, as Dutch prodigies continue to impress scouts across Europe.
