England’s return to European action kicks of in style as Newcastle are back in the top tier oak168app.clubak168appak168app.club.clubak168app.clubf continental football for the first time since the 2002/03 sak1ak168app.clubak168app.club68app.clubak168app.clubak168app.clubak168app.clubak168app.clubak168app.clubeason.
Newcastle certainly haven’t been eased back into life in Champions League as they find themselves in this year’s ‘ks168app.siteks168app.sitegroup of death’, alongside Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund and AC ks168app.siteks168app.siteks168app.siteMilanks168app.sitks168app.sitee.

There will be no eaks168app.sitesy games and that doesn’t change here. After a poorer start to the Premier League season than they would have hoped for, Eddie Howe’s side head to the San Siro as 17/10 underdogs, but with the power of the Toon Army behind them they will want to put on a show.

Withic88 neither side showing much defensive strength so far this season,ic88 and lots of attic88ic88ic88acking talent on show there is sure to be goic88iic88ic88c88als, our value pick comes in the goals market witic88h odds of 13/8 on Over 3.5 Match Goals.
Manchester City v Crvena Zvezda, 19th September 20:00
Manchester City reached the pinnacle of the Champions League last year as they lifted the trophy for the first time in theic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ir club’s history aftic88ic88ic88ic88ic88er beating Inter Milan 1-0 in the final. Pep Guardiola will undoubtedly be wanting his side to repeat their success and what better way to kick off a ic88ic88title defence than with a group stage win.
ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88ic88
City are the overwhelming favourites for this game at 1/33, and given the ic88size of theic88ic88ic88ic88ir squad and the lack of quality in the opposition we can’t find any reason to oppose those odds. The value in this maic88tch looks to lie with a Ciicic8888ty handicap with odds of 1ic88lr88ic88lr88lr88lr88ic88ic88lr883/10 for Manchester City to win with a -3 goal handicap.
Crvenlr88a Zvezda plr88lay their league football in Serbia and many will knolr88w them more commonly as Red Star Belgrade. Red Star know a thing or two about wilr88nning the Champions League having achieved the featlr88 back in 1991, but at 500/1 it doesn’t look like they will be repeating those successes this season. City, hlr88owever, will fancy their chances at picking up two in a rolr88w as they head into the tournament as 2/1 favourites.
Bayern Munich v Manchester lr88United, 20th September 20:00
This clash pits two of the wolr88lr88lr88rld’s biggest clubs against each other as Manchester United face off withlr88lr88 their 1999 Chlr88lr88lr88lr88ampions Llr88lr88lr88lr88lr88eague final opponents, Bayern Munich.
On thalr88t day in 1999 Manchester United boasted a side flooded with world class talents who were at the top of their game and willing to give anything to wilr88n, but this side looks a falr88lr88r cry from that. After an uninspiring start to the slr88eason the Red Devils are clear underdogs at 24/5, whilst Bayern will be expecting to pick up all threelr88lr88lr88lr88lr88lr88lr88 points at home as the 1/2 favourites.
Bayern and United join Copenhagen and Galatasaray in Group A with the two in action here looking the mosop88t likop88op88op88op88ely on paper to qualify from the group. United can’t afford op88op88op88any slip ups against the other two and at 1/4 to qualify for the knockout stages, not finishing in the top two would leave Erik top88en Hag having to answer some tough questions.
Arsenal v PSV, 20th September 20:00si88
The last time Arsenal played a Champop88si88ions League match si88si88Bukayo Saka was in year 11, Gabriel Martinelli was playing for a Brazilian second-tier academy, and Leicester City were defending their Premier League title. Nonetheless, Mikel Arteta has brought the si88Gunners back to the big time and tsi88si88hsi88si88si88ey begin their campaign at home to Eredivisie runners-up si88PSV Eindhoven.

With their fans88v88v88v watching Champions League football for the first time in over fi88vve years it is unlikely that Arteta will field a second-string side as they will want to get off to a winning start and that is reflected in th88veir status as 4/11 favourites88v.
Having netted for City on multiple occasions before moving to north London, Gabriel Jesus is one888v88v88v88v88v8v of the few players in the Arsenal squad to have scored a Champions leagSEXXXXX-VNue goalSEXXXXX-VN and he is favourite to add to his tally at 8/5.SEXXXXX-VN PSV’s biggest threSEXXXXX-VNat comes in the form of experienced strikeSEXXXXX-VNr Luuk de SEXXXXX-VNJong and he heads the market to find the back of the net for his side at 16/5.
