With the Champions League getting back underway on Tuesday night, we have a stacked European schedule on the cards.

With the likes of Liverpool, Barcelona and Juventus all stealing centre stage in midweek, we have nine Champions League showdowns from across the continent.

For those of you looking to put on a Tuesday flutter, we have taken a glance at some of the most appealing Champions League betting markets.

17:45 Atalanta vs Strum Graz 

While Atalanta might have enjoyed a remarkable start to proceedings back in August, La Dea have the feel of a squad seeking a much-needed boost. Eventually falling to an action-packed 3-2 loss at the hands of Napoli over the weekend, Tuesday’s hosts are without a win from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. However, making real history last season as they clinched a maiden piece of European silverware, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men will be smelling a golden opportunity here. With their sights still firmly set on clinching a Champions League quarter-final ticket this year, Atalanta’s leading marksman could have a crucial role to play in Bergamo. Along with finding the net in back-to-back Serie A appearances over the past week, Italy international Mateo Retegui has recorded 16 goals across all competitions so far this season and has continued to shine since arriving from Genoa last summer.

Although Strum Graz might be sat firmly in the driving seat to defend their domestic crown this season, the Blacks have drastically struggled to find any kind of stability on the European stage. Already accepting that they are unable to punch a knockout stage ticket, Jurgen Samuel’s side have only collected three points from their six Champions League appearances. Last seen in European action falling to a dramatic 3-2 loss away at French outfit Lille, Tuesday’s guests have also gained an unwanted reputation for their glaring struggles on foreign soil. Including a 2-1 defeat against Brest back in September, the Austrian giants have lost their first three Champions League showdowns away from the Merkur Arena by an aggregate score of 6-3. It should also be highlighted, the midweek guests have claimed just two points from any of their last 11 European battles outside of Graz.

20:00 Liverpool vs Lille

Snatching a dramatic 2-0 victory away at Brentford last weekend, Liverpool have enjoyed a sensational rise since Arne Slot’s arrival at Anfield last summer. Holding a commanding six-point buffer at the top of the Premier League table, Tuesday’s hosts are dreaming of the chance to complete an iconic silverware sweep in 2025. Already breezing their way to a Champions League quarter-final ticket, the former Feyenoord boss has seen his high-flying squad gain a fearsome reputation from across the continent. Including a 2-0 win against defending champions Real Madrid on November 27th, Liverpool have won all of their six Champions League showdowns by an aggregate score of 13-1. With many billing the Reds as a standout European contender this year, Slot’s men will also be excited by their extended dominance on home soil. Continuing on from last season, Tuesday’s hosts have suffered just a single defeat at Anfield since April 2024.

While Lille might have collected some real heavyweight European scalps this season, the Mastiffs couldn’t have asked for a tougher challenge here. Despite clinching an eye-catching 2-1 win at home against Nice last weekend, Bruno Genesio’s side are seeking some welcomed defensive steel. Although Tuesday’s guests might have been last seen in Champions League action landing a 3-2 victory against Austrian giants Strum Graz, the former Rennes boss has seen his squad muster just a pair of clean sheets from any of their previous 10 appearances across all competitions. It should also be highlighted, Lille have ed just two clean sheets from their last seven matchups away from the Stade Pierre-Mauroy. Hit with a 3-0 defeat when they last travelled to Anfield back in March 2010, Genesio’s men will certainly be bracing themselves for another monumental challenge in the red half of Merseyside.
