THE PREDICTION
After their magnificent 3-0 win over Real Madrid on matchday one, PSG will be motivated to follow that up with another victory in Istanbul. Galatasaray have assembled a talented team on paper, but they are not firing right now and PSG should be capable of picking up another victory here.
