Unai Emery's Aston Villa entertain Bayern Munich in a huge European showdown on Wednesday

- Arsenal and PSG go head-to-head at the Emirates
- Celtic visit last season's runners-up Borussia Dortmund
- Aston Villa host German giants Bayern Munich

There are another 18 games in the revamped Champions League on Tuesday and Wednesday, including several eye-catching ties like Arsenal versus Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa at home to Bayern Munich.

Here are the score predictions for each of the Matchday Two games.

RB Salzburg vs Brest (Tuesday, 5.45pm)

Salzburg were comfortably beaten 3-0 by Sparta Prague in their European opener but they should fare better at home to French side Brest, who edged out Sturm Graz 2-1 in their first game.

Score prediction: RB Salzburg 1-1 Brest

Stuttgart vs Sparta Prague (Tuesday, 5.45pm)

Stuttgart were level 1-1 at reigning champions Real Madrid with 10 minutes to go on Matchday One, before they conceded two late goals but they can make amends by edging out Sparta Prague, who beat Salzburg in their opener.

Score prediction: Stuttgart 1-0 Sparta Prague

Arsenal vs Paris Saint-Germain (Tuesday, 8pm)

Arsenal have made a good start to the season in the Premier League as Mikel Arteta's side, who left it very late to beat Leicester on Saturday, sit third in the table, just a point off the top.

The Gunners drew their Champions League opener 0-0 at Atalanta and this is another big test against Paris Saint-Germain, who have won six of their seven games in all competitions at the start of the season, including a 1-0 home win over Girona in Europe.

Score prediction: Arsenal 2-2 PSG

Barcelona vs Young Boys (Tuesday, 8pm)

Barcelona suffered a shock 2-1 defeat on Matchday One to Monaco but they should be far too good for Young Boys, who are in poor form, sitting second-bottom in the Swiss top flight, while they also lost 3-0 at home Aston Villa earlier this month.

Score prediction: Barcelona 4-0 Young Boys

Bayer Leverkusen vs AC Milan (Tuesday, 8pm)

German champions Bayer Leverkusen were impressive 4-0 victors over Feyenoord to get their campaign off to the perfect start, while Milan were beaten 3-1 by Liverpool after going in front at home early on.

Score prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 1-1 AC Milan

Borussia Dortmund vs Celtic (Tuesday, 8pm)

Dortmund were 3-0 winners over Club Brugge, while the Bhoys were also in fine form, beating Slovan Bratislava 5-1, on Matchday One.

Brendan Rodgers' side will be confident going to Dortmund after they hammered St Johnstone 6-0 in the Scottish Premiership, but BVB are seasoned Champions League campaigners and should do enough to win.

Score prediction: Borussia Dortmund 2-1 Celtic

Inter Milan vs Crvena zvezda (Tuesday, 8pm)

Inter ended a run of three games without a win with a 3-2 victory at Udinese on Saturday and they should secure a comfortable home win over Crvena zvezda to build on their opening goalless draw at Manchester City.

Score prediction Inter Milan 2-0 Crvena zvezda

PSV Eindhoven vs Sporting Lisbon (Tuesday, 8pm)

These two sides look fairly well matched. They have both won their first seven league games to sit top of their respective domestic divisions, although PSV lost 3-1 at Juventus on Matchday One, while Sporting beat Lille, 2-0 at home.

This looks difficult to call but Sporting may just edge it.

PSV Eindhoven 0-1 Sporting Lisbon

Slovan Bratislava vs Manchester City (Tuesday, 8pm)

Slovan Bratislava were hammered by Celtic 5-1 and worryingly this looks like a much more difficult game for the Slovakian champions.

Expect City, who drew with Newcastle on Saturday, to demonstrate their power and class with a routine away success.

Score Prediction: Slovan Bratislava 0-3 Manchester City

Girona vs Feyenoord (Wednesday 5.45pm)

Girona have found this season much more difficult after their superb third-place finish in LaLiga last term and, ahead of their clash with Feyenoord, they are without a win in their last five games.

Feyenoord, who were well beaten by Leverkusen in their Champions League opener, can edge what should be a tight tie.

Score prediction: Girona 0-1 Feyenoord

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Atalanta (Wednesday 5.45pm)

Both sides drew their first Champions League games 0-0 — Shakhtar holding Bologna in Italy while Atalanta did well to frustrate Premier League giants Arsenal at home.

This could be another closely-fought match but Atalanta's superior quality should eventually tell.

Score prediction: Shakhtar Donetsk 0-1 Atalanta

Aston Villa vs Bayern Munich (Wednesday, 8pm)

Villa were impressive when beating Young Boys 3-0 away on their Champions League debut but Bayern may just have too much Euro nous for Unai Emery's side.

Score prediction: Aston Villa 1-2 Bayern Munich

Benfica vs Atletico Madrid (Wednesday, 8pm)

Benfica are on a roll at the minute, winning their last four games by an aggregate score of 14-3, while Atletico salvaged a 1-1 draw in the Madrid derby on Sunday with a late equaliser against Real.

They both won their first Champions League games 2-1 earlier this month and they could cancel each other out in midweek.

Score prediction: Benfica 1-1 Atletico Madrid

Dinamo Zagreb vs Monaco (Wednesday, 8pm)

Dinamo were embarrassed 9-2 by Bayern Munich in their opener and they could be on the end of another defeat — albeit nowhere near as heavy — when they host Monaco, who caught the eye when beating Barcelona 2-1 in their first game.

Score prediction: Dinamo Zagreb 1-3 Monaco

Lille vs Real Madrid (Wednesday, 8pm)

Lille lost 2-0 at Sporting first up and now face the daunting prospect of entertaining Champions League holders Real, who eventually saw off Stuttgart 3-1 on Matchday One.

Score prediction: Lille 0-3 Real Madrid

Liverpool vs Bologna (Wednesday, 8pm)

Liverpool are top of the Premier League after five wins from their first six games and they got off to a good start in Europe, too, beating AC Milan 3-1.

Bologna have won just one of their last six games and after being held 0-0 by Shakhtar in their Champions League opener, they could be in for a long night at Anfield.

Score prediction: Liverpool 4-0 Bologna

RB Leipzig vs Juventus (Wednesday, 8pm)

Juventus are likely to come out on top in Leipzig to make it two wins from two after already beating PSV Eindhoven 3-1, whereas the German side lost their first game at Atletico Madrid 2-1.

Score prediction: RB Leipzig 1-2 Juventus

Sturm Graz vs Club Brugge (Wednesday, 8pm)

Sturm Graz could spring a minor surprise by beating Club Brugge. The home side, who lost 2-1 at Brest earlier this month, can edge out the Belgian visitors, who are without a win in three games and lost heavily at home against Dortmund to start their Champions League campaign on a low.

Score prediction: Sturm Graz 2-0 Club Brugge
