With the international break done and dusted we are back to a hectic schedule of European midweek football.<\/p>\n

We ask the TFF team to predict the scores of The Champions League tussles on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE – GROUP F<\/p>\n

BATE Bor v Barcelona<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

Barcelona have been stuttering at times without their wizard, Lionel Messi, who is out for up to two months.<\/p>\n

But a 5-2 hammering of Rayo in La Liga at the weekend demonstrates that they still have more than enough firepower to swat most teams away.<\/p>\n

We fear for BATE on the break here but Barcelona won’t have it all their own way after BATE beat Roma last time out.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: BATE 2 – Barcelona 3 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bayer Levkn v Roma<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

Roma are licking their wounds after defeat in the last game, away at BATE. <\/p>\n

But Roma sit 2nd in Serie A and have started their domestic campaign in excellent form. They will hope to transfer that to Europe but we see a draw here.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Bayer 2 – Roma 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE – GROUP F<\/p>\n

Arsenal v Bayern Munich<\/strong><\/p>\n

Arsenal have lost their opening two games in the group stage this season and there is now a very real threat that they will fail to qualify for the knockout stages for the first time.<\/p>\n

This one looks like one of the ties of Matchday 3 and we reckon it’s going to be a scoring draw.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Arsenal 2 – Bayern Munich 2<\/strong>\t\t<\/p>\n

Dinamo Zagreb v Olympiakos<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

Both teams are capable of winning this one and both have good Champions League experience.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Dinamo Zagreb 2 – Olympiakos 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE – GROUP G<\/p>\n

Dynamo Kiev v Chelsea<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

Chelsea would love to take three points but may be happy to return with one considering their current form.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Dynamo Kiev 1 – Chelsea 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

FC Porto v Maccabi Tel Aviv<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

Porto are looking strong<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Porto 2 – Maccabi 0
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE – GROUP H<\/p>\n

Valencia v KAA Gent\t<\/strong><\/p>\n

Valencia remain a very good football side.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Valencia 3 – KAA 0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Zenit St P v Lyon<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

An interesting fixture which really could go either way. We think that home advantage should pay. Just.<\/p>\n

TFF Prediction: Zenit St P 2 v Lyon 1<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
