Bayer Leverkusen

DWDWW

Bayer Leverkusen are already on to their second coach of the season after less than ten fixtures into the campaign. Kasper Hjulmand has now taken charge at the BayArena, following Erik ten Hag's dismissal after a couple of poor performances. The hosts have begun their UEFA Champions League campaign without a victory thus far. Their opening encounter against Copenhagen needed a 91st-minute own goal to secure a share of the spoils in Denmark. The subsequent encounter against PSV at home saw the side fail to capitalize on Christian Kofane's game-opening strike, as they recorded yet another draw.

Paris Saint-Germain sit in third place on the log, having accumulated maximum points since the start of the campaign. They began that charge with a convincing 4-nil victory over Atalanta at the Parc des Princes. The following encounter against FC Barcelona saw academy graduate Senny Mayulu cancel out Ferran Torres' opener. Gonçalo Ramos then connected with Achraf Hakimi's in-swinger against the run of play to breach Barcelona's high line in stoppage time to secure the winner. The side however come into this encounter without a victory in consecutive games across their domestic inclinations. A one-all draw against Lille before the international break has been met with yet another stalemate against Strasbourg after.
