Victor Osimhen’s Galatasaray will face Juventus in the UEFA Champions League playoffs.
On paper, Juventus are the favorites, but with Victor Osimhen leading the line, Galatasaray could spring an upset.
The striker has been in fine form, scoring six goals in six UEFA Champions League matches this season.
Atalanta will take on Borussia Dortmund in the next round. Ademola Lookman has struggled to make an impact in the competition this season, finding the back of the net only once.
Atalanta were solid in the group phase, winning four matches, drawing one, and losing three, while Dortmund won three, drew two, and lost three.
Bayer Leverkusen will face Olympiacos.
Leverkusen qualified for the playoffs without heavily relying on Nigeria’s Nathan Tella, who has featured in only two matches in the competition and has not started any.
The German side recorded three wins, three draws, and two losses in the group stages.
