Galatasaray Seeks European Glory After Stunning Liverpool

On October 22nd, 2025, Galatasaray and Bodø/Glimt will face off in a highly anticipated European clash. The Turkish side, Galatasaray, is coming off a surprise victory over Liverpool in their last UEFA Champions League match, and they will be seeking to record back-to-back wins in the competition for the first time since December 2012.

Bodø/Glimt, the Norwegian club, have a strong record against Turkish opponents, having won each of their last three matches against Besiktas. However, this will be the first time the two teams have met in European competition. Galatasaray have previously only faced one Norwegian opponent, Rosenborg, in the 1998-99 Champions League group stage, winning at home but losing away.

The match promises to be an exciting one, with both teams looking to make their mark in the Champions League. Galatasaray's Victor Osimhen has been in impressive form, scoring in each of his last six appearances in major European competition, while Bodø/Glimt's Håkon Evjen has been a creative force, assisting twice in their last match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Galatasaray have won their last two games against Norwegian opposition, but in major European competition, they have only won one of their four matches against Norwegian sides.
Bodø/Glimt have faced Turkish opposition on seven occasions in major European competition, and after failing to win any of the first four between 1996 and 2004, they have won each of the last three, all played since the start of the 2023-24 campaign and all versus Besiktas.
Galatasaray's win over Liverpool came with them having just 33.4 percent possession in the match, the lowest of any side to win during the first two matchdays of this UEFA Champions League campaign, as well as their lowest on record for a single victory in the competition (since 2003-04).
