Fenerbahce welcomes Liverpool to the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium on Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2026, for a high-stakes Champions League clash. The Reds have been a well-oiled machine in Europe, while the Turkish giants struggle to find their form. We back Liverpool to continue their perfect European run and exploit a shaky Fenerbahce defence in what promises to be an entertaining matchup.
Our Pick: Liverpool to win (-190)
Liverpool are cruising in the Champions League, as they stand as one of only five teams with a perfect record. They remain unbeaten in five away competitive matches and boast exceptional firepower. Fenerbahce, conversely, look entirely out of sync.
The Turkish side suffered a devastating 6-0 away loss to Aston Villa in their last clash against English opposition. With Fenerbahce unable to defeat Slavia Prague at home recently, we expect the six-time European champions to comfortably punch their ticket to another three points.

Fenerbahce vs. Liverpool Odds & Performance Breakdown
Expectations clash with reality in this fixture. Oddsmakers heavily favour Liverpool, which gives the visitors a 65 per cent implied probability of victory. Fenerbahce, meanwhile, hold just a 19 per cent chance to secure a home triumph. The goals market also suggests a high-scoring affair, with the line set at 3.25 Asian goals. Bettors expect an offensive onslaught from the visitors. While the Reds have dominated the continent, they must rebound from a tough domestic loss.
Fenerbahce Breakdown
Fenerbahce currently endure their worst stretch of the campaign, with only one victory in their last five competitive matches. Back-to-back domestic defeats forced İsmail Kartal to resign, which led to Dirk Kuyt taking over as interim manager. The former Liverpool forward demands high work rates, but his debut ended in a 2-1 defeat to Göztepe after his squad conceded two late goals.
The Turkish giants sit on just two points in the Champions League and desperately need a turnaround. Their underlying metrics suggest they have been slightly unlucky, as they generated 1.73 expected goals in a brutal 6-0 loss to Aston Villa. However, they must finish their chances to compete against elite opposition.
- Expected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Muldur, Skriniar, Brown, Mercan; Guendouzi, Kante; Greenwood, Kahveci, Aydin; Muriqi
- Injuries: Marco Asensio (knee), Jayden Oosterwolde (hamstring), Nathan Ake (groin – doubtful)
- Suspensions: None
Liverpool Breakdown
Liverpool arrive in Istanbul with a perfect European record. Head coach Andoni Iraola has guided the Reds to three consecutive Champions League victories, which includes a dominant 4-3 win over Villarreal. Although a recent 1-0 Premier League defeat to Arsenal halted their five-match win streak, Liverpool remain a massive threat.
The English powerhouse has scored 12 goals in Europe, which overperforms their expected goals metric by a massive margin of +4.77. They are incredibly clinical in front of the net. Even with expected rotations in the squad, their depth ensures they bring overwhelming offensive pressure to every match.
- Expected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Araujo, van Dijk, Jacquet, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Gakpo, Wirtz, Barcola; Isak
- Injuries: Conor Bradley (knee), Hugo Ekitike (Achilles), Jeremie Frimpong (hamstring), Giovanni Leoni (knee)
- Suspensions: None
The Final Whistle
This matchup pits Kuyt’s demand for relentless effort against Iraola’s clinical tactical setup. Fenerbahce will try to disrupt the visitors with high energy, but their defensive frailties will leave gaps for Liverpool to exploit. Expect the Reds to absorb early pressure before their superior firepower dictates the tempo and secures a decisive road victory.
