This will be the seventh UEFA Champions League meeting between Galatasaray and Juventus, though the first to come in the knockout rounds of the competition. The Turkish side have lost just one of the prior six games between the pair (W2 D3), winning the last meeting 1-0 in December 2013.  

Juventus have failed to win any of their three away UEFA Champions League games against Galatasaray (D1 L2); they’ve only ever faced Deportivo de La Coruña (4 – D2 L2) more times on the road in the competition without winning.
