AEK Athens vs FC Bayern Munich

The match at Olympiako Stadio Spyros Louis on Tuesday pits together AEK Athens from Greece and Bavarian giants Bayern Munchen. Bayern coach Kovac is surely going to feel the pressure ahead of the trip to Athens and, there is little to doubt that the Croatian tactician and his men will give it their all to pick up all 3 points.

Bayern Munchen are more of a team than AEK Athens and seeing that we believe that the visitors will come out with 3 points from this clash.

Prediction: AEK Athens 1-2 Bayern Munich


Ajax Amsterdam vs SL Benfica

Ajax have been performing above all expectations in the 2018/19 campaign. After rolling over AEK Athens in their opener they did well to hold a star-studded Bayern Munchen side to a one-goal draw at the Allianz Arena.

The side from the Eredivisie aim to retain top spot in the group, but Tuesday's match against SL Benfica will be anything but a walk in the park. The Eagles from Portugal aim to build on an impressive 3-2 win over AEK Athens, but we predict that the two sides are going to play out a draw at Johan Cruijff Arena.

Prediction: Ajax 1-1 Benfica
