Is Liverpool v Galatasaray on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch Champions League | OneFootball

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.

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.

Davinson Sanchez is suspended for the visitors, who defeated Istanbul Basaksehir 3-0 at the weekend, so a change will be needed in defence. Star striker Viktor Osimhen was on the scoresheet and will lead the line.
