An absolute highlight is rising in the Europa League! Record champion Galatasaray travels to Barcelona 20 years later and Lionel Messi of all people is known to play in Paris. The world star has not played against a Turkish team so far, although March 10, 2022 could have been the chance.
It is clear that neither the experts nor the bookmakers Galatasaray calculate great chances against the Blaugrana. Barcelona are the favourites, while Galatasaray in the midst of a relegation battle could turn their precarious season upside down. The “lions” have long since fought hard in the domestic league, but in Europe at least astrologers sense an explosive 180 minutes. The Yellow-Reds will face a serious test in Barcelona on March 10th from 21:00 (CET) before “revenge” in the second leg on March 17th. And what did the statistics tell us: pro Barcelona! On November 13, 2002, Galatasaray clearly lost 3-1 in Barcelona. The last win was in 1994 – back then it was a close 2:1! In a direct comparison it is 5:1 for Barcelona. Two duels ended in draws.
