Liverpool heads to Istanbul this evening, seeking their first away win against Galatasaray while looking to mark manager Arne Slot’s 100th game with a record victory.
The team is in the knockout stages, boasting a solid away record, having won nine of their last 11 European matches. Following a recent FA Cup win, the squad is eager to bounce back after a previous league-phase loss in this venue. Liverpool has yet to win in three previous encounters with Galatasaray, with one draw and two losses.
Liverpool team news
Arne Slot’s squad is enhanced by the return of key players but is missing some experienced names. Florian Wirtz is back from a back injury and may start tonight after coming off the bench against Wolves. Slot could position Wirtz wide to allow Dominik Szoboszlai to play in the number 10 spot. Mohamed Salah is on the brink of becoming Liverpool’s all-time Champions League appearance leader, needing just one more game to reach 81. He is also one goal shy of becoming the first African player to score 50 goals in the competition.
Alisson Becker will be in goal, with Ibrahima Konaté and Virgil van Dijk returning to strengthen the defense. Ryan Gravenberch is expected to join Alexis Mac Allister in midfield, provided Mac Allister is fit after a recent injury. Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong will play as full-backs. Dominik Szoboszlai has contributed to eight Champions League goals this season and could be the first Liverpool player to score or assist in seven consecutive games in the tournament.
