Stop us if you've heard this one before.From Saint-Etienne to Barcelona, Liverpool's rich continental history has been built on nights when comebacks have been staged and odds have been overcome, but as Galatasaray come to town holding a one-goal advantage in the last-16 of the Champions League things seem rather different.The sound of fans booing the team off after Sunday's disappointing 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield has led to even more introspection in a season that has been full of it, and while the Turkish champions might not represent the toughest of European opponents to overcome on a night when no visiting fans are allowed in, the feelings coming into the game are somewhat mixed to say the least as the pressure grows on Arne Slot.So will Liverpool do it?

Liverpool have lost first legs against Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid (twice) and Atalanta in the last six years, and were eliminated on each occasion, three primarily due to the result at home.Arne Slot's side appear devoid of confidence and cohesion, but it they and the Anfield crowd can work together then things might become more difficult for Galatasaray, whose only obvious weakness in recent European matches has been the tendency to panic at the back.Certainly, the Reds should look at how the Turkish side were lucky to escape after folding in Juventus in the play-off round and look to exploit them in the same manner.Can Liverpool do it?

Of course they can. Will they do it?
