Juventus vs Galatasaray kick-off time

Match preview

Galatasaray have one foot in the Champions League after a stunning 5-2 win over Juventus in Istanbul. However, their dismal record in Italy means they can't take anything for granted ahead of this second-leg battle. 

Travelling Juve fans endured a rollercoaster of a night in the Turkish capital. Juve conceded first, equalised a minute later, took the lead on 32 minutes, but eventually lost 5-2. The Old Lady has now gone five matches without a win in all competitions, losing three on the bounce. Their long unbeaten run at home in Serie A, which stretched back to last season, was snapped by Como at the weekend.

Turkish giants Galatasaray will already be envisaging a last-16 clash with either Liverpool or Tottenham Hotspur. However, a defeat at the weekend against Konyaspor, a team that had previously gone 12 matches without a win in Turkey, shows that they're also human. 

Injury news & key stats

Juve's Brazilian defender Bremer limped out of the 5-2 defeat last week, but could return here. Pierre Kalulu is also available after serving a controversial Serie A ban, but Spalletti will be without three full-backs, as Emil Holm is injured, while Cabal and Andrea Cambiaso are both suspended.

Galatasaray have previously progressed from all 11 two-legged UEFA ties when winning the opener by three or more goals.

Galatasaray star striker Victor Osimhen needs two more goals to equal the club record for a single Champions League campaign.

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
