Manchester City lead group 1 after a confident win over Rosengård. Their next opponent is the Dutch club Ajax, who lost 4-2 to Bayern on MD 1. It will be interesting to see if City can dominate the game in the same way or if Ajax completely turns it around.
FC Rosengård takes on the other winner in the group, Bayern Munich. The German club struggled to find their rhythm in the first half against Ajax and even conceded the opening goal. However, they found their footing in the second half and will likely prove to be a tough opponent for the Swedes.

Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain lead group 2, level on points and goal difference. Both sides displayed good football on MD1 but PSG seemed more comfortable with the format and more in control against Benfica. If they secure another win in their second match, it could all come down to the final game later in the evening when United and PSG go head to head.
