The Champions League Group Stage 2023 opening night is this Tuesday, and there are a lot of exciting matchups. What should we expect from the most important UCL matches on September 19?
The Champions League odds for this matchup suggest a blowout win for Man City. The Citizens are taking the Premier League by storm, as they have won all of their first five games. Jeremy Doku scored in their last match against West Ham, and he will probably start again to gain more confidence, as Jack Grealish is also doubtful with an injury, so Doku scoring at 2.40 (7/5) is very possible.
Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund are in quartet F, which is by far the toughest in this season’s UCL group stage. The Parisians are coming off a home loss to Nice in Ligue 1 and will be looking to bounce back. Kylian Mbappe is in great form to start the season, as he scored seven goals in only four starts, so Mbappe scoring at 1.90 (9/10) has nice value.
Barcelona are coming off a great 5-0 win over Real Betis in La Liga. The Blaugrana are unbeaten so far this season and are in great form. Barcelona will be looking to improve on their third-place finish in last year’s UCL group stage. This should be an easy game for the Blaugrana to control from start to finish and get the win, so Barcelona to win Halftime/Fulltime at 1.62 (5/8) is expected from them.
