With all of Europe’s elite getting their respective Champions League adventures back underway in midweek, we are treated to a heavyweight night of action on Tuesday.
As Chelsea welcome Barcelona to west London for a mouth-watering European showdown, the likes of Manchester City will also be searching for an immediate response.
Ahead of a pulsating Tuesday of Champions League action, we have looked across the continent for some of the most attractive European betting tips.
20:00 Manchester City vs Bayer Leverkusen
Watching their Premier League title dreams take a real blow over the weekend as they fell to a 2-1 loss away at St. James’ Park, Manchester City are desperately searching for an immediate response here. Nevertheless, heading into November’s international break with a 3-0 romp against bitter domestic foes Liverpool, Pep Guardiola’s superstar squad will be excited to make a return to home soil on Tuesday night. Laying down a heavyweight Champions League marker earlier in the month as they stormed their way to a 4-1 victory against German giants Borussia Dortmund, the Sky Blues have certainly gained a reputation for their extended success at the Etihad. Getting November underway with a routine 3-1 win against Bournemouth, the former Barcelona boss has seen his side win all of their previous seven consecutive showdowns in the blue half of Manchester by an aggregate score of 22-3. With the record-breaking Erling Haaland embarking on an astonishing flurry, City have their sights set on mounting a genuine European charge this season.
Opening up the 2025/26 campaign in the midst of a public wobble, Bayer Leverkusen came under a huge amount of scrutiny back in August. However, remarkably sacking Erik ten Hag after just three games in charge, Tuesday’s guests have continued to impress since parting ways with the former Manchester United boss on September 1st. Starting to skyrocket their way up the Bundesliga standings and last seen over the weekend storming their way to a dominant 3-1 victory away at Wolfsburg, Kasper Hjulmand’s men should find the mood in their camp at a season-high. Winning five of their previous six appearances across all competitions, the former German champions should be excited by a trip to Manchester on Tuesday night. Likewise, despite getting November underway with a 3-0 drumming against arch-rivals Bayern Munich, Leverkusen have won each of their other five showdowns away from the BayArena. Despite being pencilled in as a real underdog contender when they arrive at the Etihad in midweek, Hjulmand’s side will be confident of asking some serious questions.

20:00 Marseille vs Newcastle
Claiming what was a much-welcomed domestic boost over the weekend as they marked their return from November’s international break with a 2-1 victory at home against Manchester City, Newcastle will now be excited to turn their attention back to European action here. Despite still scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the Premier League table, Eddie Howe’s men have embarked on a sensational European fairytale. Remarkably winning all of their previous three consecutive Champions League appearances, the former Bournemouth boss has another iconic knockout stage ticket at the top of his agenda. However, despite enjoying a real purple patch at St. James’ Park, Newcastle have gained an unwanted reputation for their glaring struggles outside of Tyneisde. Including consecutive 3-1 defeats away at West Ham and Brentford earlier in the month, Howe’s side have lost their last three straight domestic matchups on the road by an aggregate score of 8-3. In fact, the Magpies have remarkably bagged just a single victory away from St. James’ Park across all competitions since back in April.
Marking their respective return from November’s international break with a dominant 5-1 romp away at Nice over the weekend, Marseille will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. However, although Roberto De Zerbi’s men might be enjoying a real domestic flurry since opening up the 2025/26 campaign, Tuesday’s hosts have struggled to find any kind of stability while on European duties. Despite storming their way to an empathic 4-0 win against Dutch icons Ajax on September 30th, it appears that might have been just a minor boost. Last seen in Champions League action suffering last-gasp heartbreak at the Stade Velodrome as they slumped to a 1-0 loss at the hands of Italian strugglers Atalanta, Marseille have lost three of their first four European showdowns. Getting Tuesday’s showdown underway sat outside the knockout stage spots and bracing themselves for what suddenly looks like a must-win battle, Les Phoceens know the importance of claiming an essential Champions League boost.
