On the program, the first day of the group stage of the Champions League.
OM trip to London, first full-scale test for Tudor. Olympians anxious to make a good start in the Champions League, despite a history of deficit against English clubs (10 defeats, 2 wins and 2 draws). Convincing start to the season for Marseille, against Spurs, 3rd in the Premier League standings and who have strengthened (Richarlison, Perisic). Lloris, already ten years with the white tunic! In the absence of Sanchez, which Olympian can make the difference?
London (continued)
Tuchel thanked the day after the defeat of the Blues against Dinamo Zagreb. 300 million euros spent this summer, but already 5 points behind the leading team in the Premier League. Chelsea had however reacted well on Saturday against West Ham. Why is the winner of the C1 2021 leaving? Same impatience on the side of the leaders of Leipzig? Domenico Tedesco takes the door. Does the German-Italian coach pay for the heavy defeat conceded by the Saxons at home against Shakhtar Donetsk? The “Roten Bullen” also conceded 4 goals in Frankfurt last Saturday.
European Evening Hot Spots
Inter receives Bayern from Sadio Mané and Kingsley Coman (GC), the vice-champion of Italy does not intend to make up the numbers. Liverpool, finalists of the previous edition, travel to Naples. Despite the departures of Insigne, Mertens and Koulibaly, Kvaratskhelia’s partners have started well in Serie A.
Throwback to Tuesday’s matches
Winning bets, but the appearance of low time in the second half raises questions.
