Rather irrelevant fact for the superstitious types :- Liverpool have never beaten a Turkish team away !
Our away form this season has been excellent (first time for everything!) which I expect we should be capable of carrying over to Besiktas tomorrow night.
I'm going to miss the match (will have to settle for highlights) while flying to South Africa and I don't want to wake up on Thursday morning to find us effectively out of the Champions League. Realistically we need to win tomorrow night otherwise we'll find ourselves in a very sticky situation trying to qualify.
Although Alonso is in the squad, we're still missing Torres, Agger, Kewell, Arbeloa and Aurelio. So I hope Babel has learnt his recent lesson about sleeping in and doesn't miss the flight to Istanbul this morning ;-)
