Preview

The tie of the round is arguably Barcelona's clash with Juventus, a repeat of last season's quarter-final, which the Italian side won 3-0 on aggregate.

Both teams will be expected to make it through the group, but the home-and-away clashes between the two sides may well determine who finishes as group winners.

Both teams lost key players over the summer with Neymar leaving Barcelona for Paris Saint-Germain while Leonardo Bonucci departed Turin for AC Milan.

Barca will need to watch out for Paulo Dybala, who did the damage the last time the two sides met, scoring twice in Turin.

However, it seems the Blaugrana know all about the Argentine, as he was reportedly a transfer target for the club this summer, per Luis F. Rojo of Marca.

While Barcelona will be without Neymar, he will be lining up for PSG as they head to Scotland to take on Celtic.

Unai Emery's side have strengthened considerably this summer, also bringing in Kylian Mbappe and Dani Alves, and Champions League glory will surely be in their sights this summer.

PSG have made a perfect start to the season in Ligue 1, but the threat they now possess is highlighted by Opta:

Celtic have also started the season well domestically, with four wins and a draw, but Tuesday's clash will offer Brendan Rodgers' side a completely different challenge.
