In Matchday 2's game of the week, PSG and Man City renew hostilities in the UEFA Champions League as both sides go at each other in the group stage this Tuesday. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

There's recent history between both sides, the most prominent being the semifinal clash at the tail end of last season when Guardiola's Cityzens got the better of the Parisiens. Would we see the side from Manchester dominate once again?

Battle for top spot in Group A

PSG fielded Messi, Neymar and Mbappe for the first time in their UCL group stage opener away at Club Brugge much to the delight of the PSG faithful and the football world at large. The fearsome trip, however, failed to click in Belgium as PSG had to settle for a point in a 1-1 stalemate- Herrera and Hans Vanaken on the scoresheet for either side. Domestically, they have been heads and shoulders above the other teams as they lead the way at the summit of the standings with nine points on RC Lens who are in second. Pochettino's troops pushed on their 100% record with a 2-0 win against Montpellier last weekend. Gueye and Draxler were both on the scoresheet and it is then left to see where the French outfit can use this momentum to get their first UCL group stage win of the season.

The Cityzens showed exactly why they're defending champions in their most recent game, beating reigning European Champions Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea beat Manchester City thrice at the tail end of the season, a trio of wins that was culminated in the UEFA Champions League final. It was no surprise that they were fired up for this massive six-pointer and they prevailed last Saturday with Jesus' deflected shot being the only goal of the game. The Cityzens have now won six of their last seven games in all competitions including a 6-3 win against RB Leipzig in their first group stage match.
