Team news ahead of Istanbul Basaksehir clash

The Reds are looking to extend our 100 per cent record in this season's Champions League when meeting Istanbul Basaksehir for the first time.

Wednesday's 17:55 GMT kick-off may come too soon for Alex Telles, who recently tested positive for COVID-19, but Jesse Lingard continues to make progress in his bid to return to full fitness after injury.

In an exclusive interview with club correspondent Gemma Thompson at the Aon Training Complex, the boss also discussed his options in attack, with Anthony Martial available and Edinson Cavani pushing for more minutes.

“Apart from being a bit flat and disappointed [after the Arsenal defeat], as you'd expect, there are no more injuries and I think the squad will look similar again,” Ole told us, ahead of his press conference.
