Liverpool must overturn Galatasaray and a first-leg defeat as they return to Anfield looking to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
The Reds lost 1-0 in Istanbul last week following Mario Lemina’s early goal, the second time they had lost to the Turkish side this season, and they will require a big performance under the lights at Anfield to get through.
But the pressure on Arne Slot’s shoulders intensified following a poor 1-1 draw against struggling Tottenham on Sunday, as Liverpool were booed off after allowing the game to slip from their control and conceding another late goal.
Now Liverpool need a response to stay alive in the Champions League and stop their season from falling into crisis - but Galatasaray will be full of confidence after knocking out Juventus in the play-off rounds and having beaten Liverpool twice already this campaign.
