Arne Slot’s Liverpool arrive in strong European form and will aim to keep the tie under control ahead of next week’s decider at Anfield. Galatasaray host Liverpool in the first leg of their Round of 16 tie, with Okan Buruk’s side knowing they have already beaten the Reds once at home in this season’s league phase.



Arne Slot’s Liverpool arrive in strong European form and will aim to keep the tie under control ahead of next week’s decider at Anfield. The Nigerian striker has already collected two yellow cards in the competition, picked up against Juventus and Atletico Madrid, leaving him just one booking away from a one‑match ban.

Osimhen is far from alone in facing a ban, with Galatasaray carrying an unusually long list of players who are one yellow card away from missing the return. And manager Okan Buruk is not happy with the situation, and wants yellow cards to be wiped earlier due to so many UEFA games being added to the calendar: “There could have been a reduction regarding yellow cards for 10 matches,” Buruk said.
