Liverpool’s First Champions League Away Challenge: Galatasaray Preview
Liverpool head into a tough opening away game in the Champions League group stage, making the trip to Turkey to face Galatasaray. Below is an outline of fitness updates, absentees, and expected selections ahead of tonight’s showdown:
Injury & Squad Report
Federico Chiesa has been left out after being unable to finish training due to a slight issue. Arne Slot confirmed he was omitted purely as a precaution.
Giovanni Leoni is out for the season with an ACL injury and has been taken out of the Champions League list.
Jayden Danns (knock), Stefan Bajcetic (hamstring), and Trey Nyoni (committed to the UEFA Youth League) are not available.
Hugo Ekitiké comes back into the fold after completing his suspension.
Projected Liverpool XI vs Galatasaray
Without Chiesa and with Leoni sidelined, Liverpool might shape up like this:
Alisson
Frimpong – Konaté – Van Dijk – Robertson
Gravenberch – Szoboszlai – Mac Allister
Salah – Wirtz – Gakpo / Ekitiké
Slot might decide to introduce Ekitiké into the attack or tweak the forward setup to cover Chiesa’s absence.
Match Context & Major Obstacles
Galatasaray enter the contest riding seven straight league victories, though their continental form remains unconvincing after a heavy 5–1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt.
The intimidating environment in Istanbul poses a significant examination of Liverpool’s mentality and depth.
Arne Slot has defended full-backs Frimpong and Kerkez, insisting that defensive errors are down to the team collectively.
Closing Thoughts
Liverpool are missing Chiesa, but the squad still carries enough talent to compete. The big questions are:
Who Slot depends on to take Chiesa’s place
Whether the frontline can click in a hostile setting
If Liverpool can secure a result while lacking several squad options
