Fenerbahçe vs Lugano Champions League live stream and team news | OneFootball

Fenerbahçe seeks to book their spot in the 2024/25 Champions League third qualifying round when they host Lugano on Tuesday at 6 p.m. (UK time).

The hosts eventually claimed a thrilling first-leg advantage in Switzerland last week as they secured a 4-3 victory. José Mourinho’s side were grateful to Edin Džeko, who bagged a hat-trick for the Turkish giants, who led 4-2 heading into the final stretch. However, a 94th-minute goal for Lugano means that the tie is delicately poised heading into the return fixture.

The Yellow Canaries, who begin their league campaign against Göztepe on August 17, accumulated an impressive 99 points from 38 league matches last season, but they still did not win the title, finishing three points behind the champions, Galatasaray.

Lugano, meanwhile, have never played in the group stage of the Champions League, and they’ve already started their Swiss Super League season. They’ve won their opening two games against Grasshoppers and Basel and currently sit third in the table. Lugano are three-time Swiss champions but haven’t won the title since 1949.

Fenerbahçe vs Lugano team news

Fenerbahçe are uncertain about the fitness of Çağlar Söyüncü, who has a thigh problem. Ryan Kent is also expected to miss out due to a knee issue. Consequently, Mourinho may have to make two changes from the previous game. İrfan Kahveci and Mert Müldür are likely to be included in the starting lineup for this match. Džeko will spearhead the Turkish giants’ frontline again, and former Ajax captain Dušan Tadić will support him in the attacking third.

Shkelqim Vladi, Ilija Maslarov, and Lars Mai missed the first leg for Lugano due to fitness issues, and they are expected to be absent again on Tuesday night. Head coach Croci-Torti would have been pleased with many aspects of his team’s performance in the first leg, so it would not be surprising to see the same starting eleven in the upcoming match. As a result, there should be a position for Ignacio Aliseda at centre-forward. He didn’t score in the first leg but has already found the net in the new campaign.

Fenerbahçe (4-3-3): Livakovic; Osayi-Samuel, Muldur, Dijku, Oosterwolde; Fred, Krunic, Szymanski; Tadic, Dzeko, Kahveci.
