Fenerbahçe v Liverpool preview
Liverpool have scored 12 goals in three Champions League games, and Fenerbahçe have the unenviable job of trying to stop them in Istanbul on Wednesday night.
This is the fourth of eight league-phase matches, so there is still time to climb, but a win in Istanbul would keep Liverpool in the top-eight places.
Liverpool have won all three matches, and none has been comfortable. They beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 at home on 9 September, won 6-3 at Lask Linz on 14 October and edged Villarreal 4-3 at Anfield on 20 October. They have scored 12 and conceded seven, and have not kept a clean sheet.
Fenerbahçe's recent record is mostly draws. Across their last nine competitive matches they have won four, drawn four and lost one, scoring 11 and conceding 12. Their qualifying run included wins over Gornik Zabrze and Sturm Graz.
Rotation and selection
Rotation looks unlikely to be a talking point. Liverpool are chasing a top-eight finish and have a lengthy injury list, so the visitors will field their strongest available side.
Fenerbahçe have used a 4-2-3-1 in eight of their nine matches this season, and the hosts have little reason to change it. They have conceded an average of 2.0 goals per away game this season but only 0.8 at home, so Istanbul is where they are hardest to beat.

Correct Score: 1-3
Liverpool have scored three or more in each of their last three league-phase games, and have 12 goals in total. Fenerbahçe have scored in all five of their home matches this season, which keeps a home goal in the picture. We back 1-3. The risk is a tighter game, as Fenerbahçe average only 1.2 goals a game.

TIP 02
Over 2.5 Goals: Over
All three of Liverpool's games have gone over 1.5 goals and two have gone over 3.5. Fenerbahçe have conceded 12 in nine. Over 2.5 is the pick. The risk is Fenerbahçe's low-scoring home record, where none of their nine matches has gone over 2.5 goals for them.

TIP 03
Both Teams to Score: Yes
Liverpool have conceded in all three league-phase games, with seven goals against in total. Fenerbahçe have scored in eight of their nine games, failing once. We say yes. The caveat is that Fenerbahçe have kept three clean sheets in nine, so Liverpool could still shut them out.

TIP 04
Anytime Goalscorer: C. Gakpo
Gakpo plays in a Liverpool attack that averages 20.67 shots and 7.0 on target a game. He is a regular threat in the final third. We back him to score. The risk is that Liverpool's goals have been spread through the side.

TIP 05
Double Chance: Away or Draw
Liverpool have won all three league-phase games and have not lost this season. Fenerbahçe have scored only 1.2 goals a game and have one win in their last four at home. Away or Draw is the safer cover. The risk is a home upset, given Liverpool's defensive record.

Gakpo is a key attacker in a team that creates 2.86 xG per game. If Liverpool win with three or more goals, he is the likeliest to be among the scorers.
