Nigerian stars, Victor Boniface and Samuel Chukwueze are set to face off in a high-stakes UEFA Champions League clash as Bayer Leverkusen take on AC Milan today.

The match promises to be a thrilling encounter as the two teams possess attacking prowess to deliver a showpiece. Boniface has been in sensational form for Leverkusen this season, contributing to six goals across all competitions (three goals and three assists) for the reigning German champions.

In contrast, Chukwueze has struggled to secure regular playing time at AC Milan since his summer transfer from Villarreal. The talented winger has found himself competing for minutes under coach Paulo Fonseca, who has largely preferred American international Christian Pulisic on the left side of the attack.

AC Milan lost their Champions League opener on home soil to Liverpool, but they have won their two games since in Serie A, while they have only lost three of their last 10 away fixtures in Europe’s premier club competition.

Meanwhile, Arsenal face their first home game in the revamped Champions League on Tuesday night when they host last season’s semi-finalists PSG.

UEFA promised more big clashes early in the tournament and the Gunners are proof of that, having drawn at Europa League winners Atalanta in their European opener.

Mikel Arteta’s side rank among the favourites to win this competition this term and they’ll be desperate to show why on Tuesday night. Having remained unbeaten through a tricky start to the league campaign.
