Liverpool face difficulties at home. |
Liverpool enter this week in a somber mood as their disappointing run of form shows no sign of stopping. The 1-1 draw at Anfield against Tottenham, a team battling relegation, continues to sound the alarm for manager Arne Slot and his players.
Despite Dominik Szoboszlai, the goalscorer in that match, calling on the whole team to "rise up," the actual performance showed that the "Reds" still have many problems to solve if they want to go far in the Champions League.
The upcoming challenge against Galatasaray makes things even more complicated. History is not on Liverpool's side, as they have lost 11 of their last 16 European Cup encounters after losing the first leg away from home. However, Anfield remains a stronghold, where they have won 15 of their last 19 matches in continental competitions.
On the other side, Galatasaray are brimming with confidence after eliminating Juventus with a 7-5 aggregate score in the play-offs. The Turkish side also boasts a five-match winning streak, including three clean sheets. However, their away form is questionable, having won only one of their last 14 away games in Europe.
In terms of personnel, Liverpool have almost their strongest lineup, while Galatasaray are without Davinson Sanchez due to suspension. Notable names include Florian Wirtz and Victor Osimhen, the striker currently in excellent form with 13 goal contributions in his last 9 matches.
With the home advantage and their wealth of experience, Liverpool are still considered the slightly stronger team, but Galatasaray are clearly not an easy opponent to overcome. The match promises to be tense and full of drama.
