Liverpool vs Rangers
Liverpool will seek to make it two Champions League victories in a row when they face Rangers in Group A of the Champions League on Tuesday.
The visitors have already lost both of their first two games and cannot afford another loss if they are to continue in the tournament.
Liverpool's 2-1 triumph over Ajax last month was their lone win in their past four matches, so Jurgen Klopp may be glad to face Rangers in midweek.
Klopp's team overcame a 2-0 deficit to lead Brighton & Hove Albion 3-2 at Anfield on Saturday, but Leandro Trossard secured his hat-trick late in the game.
Liverpool has just two victories from seven league games so far this season, but they want to catch Napoli by defeating Rangers on Tuesday.
Klopp will seek six points from their two meetings against the weakest club in the group, Scottish Premiership and Europa League runners-up Hearts.
Liverpool cannot afford complacency ahead of Tuesday's meeting, even if they won't need their finest effort to win.
Bayern Munich Vs Viktoria Plzen
When Bayern Munich hosts Viktoria Plzen at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night, they will be hoping to maintain their lead in Group C of the Champions League.
The team of Michal Bilek will be attempting to earn their first points in a difficult European season thus far.
With back-to-back games against Plzen, The Bavarians can pretty well close up qualifying for the knockout rounds, which will take the weight off two hard games at the conclusion of the group stage and enable a concentration on the league, which may prove essential in the run-up to the World Cup.
Nagelsmann will undoubtedly have one eye on their forthcoming Bundesliga match against Borussia Dortmund and will hope his team can win early so he can rest important players.
Manuel Neuer and Leon Goretzka tested positive for COVID last week, while Thomas Muller and Joshua Kimmich tested positive following the Bayer Leverkusen match on Friday.
Viktoria Plzen, which is undefeated in the league, has played various opponents in the Champions League, and the results haven't shocked anybody.
Colombian midfielder Jhon Mosquera, who has played in the front line in European competition, will be the crucial player to watch on the Czech team's roster. He has scored five times in six starts from midfield so far this season, including in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Bohemians 1905.
After two qualifying rounds and a playoff to get into the Champions League, Plzen may have hoped for a more advantageous draw that would have given them a chance to secure a third-place berth in the group and a Europa League knockout stage playoff slot, but they were drawn against three European heavyweights.
