UEFA Champions League 2018/19: Group analysis after matchday 3

Group D

Group D after the first three rounds

This is another unpredictable group, with three equal favourites for passage to the next stage of the Champions League.

The next two rounds will be decisive for the Turkish representative. They have the ability to win the latter of them against Moskva but the visit to Schalke will be a tough one.

Without a doubt, Schalke is the favourite to win against Galatasaray at home. Bearing in mind another match at home, against Lokomotiv Moskva in the last round, they have real chances to win one of the first two places in the group.

Porto play at home against the Russian team and against Schalke. They could count on 4-6 points from those two games. With at least 11 points they are in the next stage of this competition. Bearing in mind all remaining games, a realistic order at the end of the competition in the group could be the same as at this moment.

Porto, Schalke 04, Galatasaray, Lokomotiv Moskva.
