🚨 Reds vs Red Devils: Champions' Final Standoff in Premier League Title Race!
The Reds require a Champions League comeback after losing 1-0 last week in Istanbul
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. Here’s everything you need to know When is Liverpool v Galatasaray? Kick-off is at 8pm at Anfield on Wednesday 18 March.
How can I watch it? It will be shown on TNT Sports 1 and Discovery+. Build-up will be from 7pm.
What is the team news? Ibrahima Konate is fit to return for Liverpool but Joe Gomez is a doubt, leaving a question over right back. Hugo Ekitike and Mohamed Salah should return after dropping to the bench at the weekend.
