TOTTENHAM After beating Dortmund at Wembley, Spurs will have massive confidence going into the rest of their group games! With Harry Kane developing into a world-class striker too , the Prem side are real dark horses!

If Jurgen Klopp can tighten up his defence and get Philippe Coutinho back on form, there could be no stopping the Merseyside giants!

They have a few CL-winners in their camp too, and can use that experience to their advantage big-time! MAN. CITY With super boss Pep Guardiola in charge, you can’t…

ATLETICO v CHELSEA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE Chelsea face their toughest game of the group with a trip to Madrid. The La Liga giants will definitely defend much better than Qarabag did in The Blues’ opening 6-0 win, and Antoine Griezmann, Yannick Carrasco and Kevin Gameiro will test their back three a lot more too! It’s a huge test for Antonio Conte and his team – can they show they’re good enough to compete with Europe’s finest? ONES TO WATCH! Antoine Griezmann – Atletico Eden Hazard – Chelsea SPARTAK MOSCOW V LIVERPOOL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Sevilla was a hard return to European footy, and proved what can happen with poor finishing and sloppy defending!
