Latest UEFA Champions League update: Paris SG and Lens start strong, Lille under pressure. Can Lille turn the tide before the knockout stage?
Paris SG wasted no time showing ambition. In my view, their firepower makes them early favorites. Determined to hit the three‑point mark, the capital club opened its European campaign with a 6‑1 demolition of Slovan Bratislava. Soon the stakes rise as Luis Enrique’s men prepare for Manchester City on 14 October, then host FC Barcelona on 20 October.
RC Lens also began well, edging past Slavia Prague 3‑2. The Blood and Gold will try to confirm the win at home against Sporting on 13 October before travelling to Club Brugge on 21 October. Lille’s situation is tighter; a 3‑2 loss to Real Betis leaves them scrambling. They face Arsenal on 13 October away, then host Galatasaray on 21 October – a tough road ahead.
