PSG already have a habit of dominating away games in the Champions League, as they showed with victories over Barcelona (2??"1) and Leverkusen (7??"2). Athletic have stabilized defensively in recent times, but facing the Parisians' atomic attack without their key defenders is an almost impossible mission. PSG have already scored 19 goals in five games.

Borussia Dortmund are turning their attention to European challenges after a convincing 2-0 win over Hoffenheim on Sunday. Julian Brandt and Nico Schlotterbeck were the scorers in that game, confirming BVB's good form on all fronts. Niko Kova?'s team are looking convincing, with just one defeat in 13 Bundesliga matches and three wins from five in the Champions League. They are particularly strong at home, where they have won five of their last six European matches at Signal Iduna Park.

At the Bergamo stadium, we expect a close duel between teams that have not lost in the last four rounds. Atalanta has been very stable at home this season, with a total of 10 points and without a defeat for 360 minutes. Coach Palladino's team looks solid, and they are productive in attack. Chelsea have an identical number of points but are still looking for their first away win. I expect a draw in the end.

Barcelona are currently outside the top eight and must win if they want to stay in the race for promotion. They have a win and a loss at home, while they are winless in their last two games. Eintracht is in poor form, without a win in four rounds. They are particularly bad away from home, where they have yet to win. Their defense is under great pressure (14 goals conceded), while their offense is also lacking security. An offensive game is expected, and the favored host has an excellent chance of winning all the points.

Inter come into this match after losing their first group game away to Atlético. With 12 points and already assured of a place in the knockout stages, the Nerazzurri are now looking to confirm first place in the group. They have been at their best this season at San Siro, and Chivu's team looks compact and motivated. Liverpool are going through a crisis of form, both in the league and in the Champions League. The latest defeat to PSV at Anfield (1-4) has further shaken the team, and coach Arne Slot is under pressure. With nine points, the English team is still not sure of further qualification.

Monaco has six points, with a streak of four games without defeat but only one victory in that period. At home they drew twice, so now they will be looking for the crucial three points. Galatasaray has nine points. Although they are already certain to advance, they want to keep their form. The Turkish side recorded one win and one loss away from home. An even and uncertain match awaits us, but one with the potential for many goals.

PSV is very efficient in the last matches, considering that they beat Napoli (6-2) and Liverpool (4-1). They are currently on eight points with four consecutive matches without defeat. At home, however, they were not very convincing ??" only three points won in two games. Atlético are currently on the rise after beating Inter, their third win in a row. However, the visitors are not convincing away from Madrid, with no points won in two away games.

Middlesbrough have spent 15 of their last 16 seasons in the Championship, with just one brief spell in the Premier League in 2016??"17. They started the season strongly, but a poor November followed, with just one win in six matches, which resulted in the dismissal of Michael Carrick. He was replaced by Kim Hellberg, who made his debut in a 2??"1 win against Derby, after his team were trailing at half-time. The new manager stressed that minimal tactical changes later in the season brought the necessary turnaround. After last season, in which they barely managed to survive thanks to a better goal difference than Luton, Hull City are in a much better position this year. They currently sit in ninth place, a point outside the play-off zone and five points from direct promotion. However, Serdje Jakirovi?'s team needs more consistency, especially on the road.

Although Marseille looks stronger on paper, they have to prove it on the pitch against a solid Lille team that rarely concedes goals at home. In a situation where there is no clear favorite, a draw is the most realistic outcome. The last five head-to-head matches further confirm this thesis ??" four times the matches ended without a winner, including both duels last season. We expect a tactically cautious match with limited risk and minimal differences.

Brest is rightly optimistic before returning to their home ground thanks to two consecutive victories in Ligue 1. Eric Roy's team first defeated Metz 3-2, and then registered an important away victory against Strasbourg (2-1), thus moving away from the lower part of the table. However, Les Pirates have shown defensive weaknesses all season ??" conceding two or more goals in four of their last seven games and keeping just one clean sheet in that period. Monaco come to Brest with confidence boosted after a big win against PSG last weekend. A narrow victory (1-0) at Stade Louis II, thanks to a goal by Takumi Minamino, ended a streak of three defeats and put Sébastien Pocognoli's team back on the winning track. Monaco currently hold seventh place in the table, eight points behind the leader Lens. The team from Monaco dominated this duel in the recent past, with as many as six victories in the last seven meetings with Brest.

Fortuna return home after a 2-1 defeat at Dynamo Dresden, where Christian Rasmussen's goal was only a consolation. Mark Anfang's team lacked consistency, having lost six and won just one in eight games since the start of October. However, Düsseldorf have reason for optimism, as they are unbeaten in their last five meetings with Schalke, and seven of the last eight meetings between the rivals have ended with goals from both sides. Schalke travel to Düsseldorf after a valuable 2-1 victory over direct rivals Paderborn, thanks to a late goal from Bryan Lasme. With only one defeat since mid-September, the Miron Musli?-led team is showing why they are the leaders of the Bundesliga II. Regardless of their current form, Schalke have struggled in their recent meetings with Fortuna, having won just once in their last nine matches.

Partizan is in total disarray this season. The other day, coach Obradovi? offered his resignation, which was not accepted, and several first-team players announced their departure. Bayern is not in a good rhythm, but I believe they will put up strong resistance and that the momentum is definitely on their side.

Bournemouth missed the chance to record their first league win since October against Sunderland on Saturday despite holding a two-goal advantage. In the end, they were beaten 3-2, meaning that Andoni Iraola and his men have now gone four consecutive matches without a win in the Premier League, three of which they have come up empty-handed. Against Everton, the hosts will look for a way to break the negative streak and use the support from the stands to get the much-needed points.
