Hoffenheim vs. Manchester City

After falling to defeat in their first Champions League match of the season against Lyon, Manchester City need to bounce back when they travel to Germany on Tuesday.

At the Etihad Stadium last time out in this competition they were picked off by the Ligue 1 side on the counter-attack. This means what appeared to be a straightforward group suddenly became a lot more challenging for Pep Guardiola's men.

As relayed by football journalist Nick Harris, the club have a curious relationship with the Champions League:

Domestically, City have been in fine form and will be big favourites to get the job done against Hoffenheim. However, Julian Nagelsmann's team have it in them to make this an uncomfortable contest for the Premier League outfit.

While they've not got off to the best of starts in the Bundesliga this season, in recent years they've proved themselves to be a versatile and dynamic team capable of bridging the gap to elite sides. With that in mind it'll be intriguing to see how the coach sets them up for this challenge.

Prediction: Hoffenheim 1-2 Manchester City

Manchester United vs. Valencia

The pressure is beginning to ramp up for Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho, and Old Trafford will expect a response on Tuesday against Valencia.

That's after the Red Devils backed up their Carabao Cup elimination against Derby County with a 3-1 loss to West Ham United on Saturday in the Premier League. Another poor result here would push the club closer to crisis point.

Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph doesn't think the Portuguese coach is getting the best of the options he has at United:

Bleacher Report's Dean Jones thinks the clash on Tuesday and Saturday's showdown with Newcastle United in the Premier League are crucial for Mourinho:

The Red Devils may be facing Valencia at the wrong time. After an unconvincing start to the campaign, they picked up their first La Liga win of the season on Saturday, battling to a 1-0 victory at Real Sociedad.

Marcelino's side are a dangerous opponent. Valencia are built to counter-attack and have firepower aplenty in the form of Kevin Gameiro, Michy Batshuayi and Goncalo Guedes. Given how poorly United have defended in recent matches, containing those sorts of players will be a massive ask.

Prediction: Manchester United 1-1 Valencia
