Fenerbahce vs Liverpool predictions: Champions League tips & 6/1 Bet Builder

Liverpool travel to Istanbul looking to preserve their perfect Champions League record after wins over Atletico Madrid, LASK and Villarreal. Fenerbahce are still waiting for their first league-phase victory and were beaten 6-0 by Aston Villa the last time they played an English side.

The game has an extra emotional edge too, with former Liverpool player Dirk Kuyt currently the Fenerbahce interim boss. Kuyt played and scored for Liverpool in the 2007 Champions League final, which they lost to AC Milan.

Back to the game, and Liverpool's attacking form makes them clear favourites, although seven goals conceded in three European matches offers encouragement to the hosts. Here are our predicted lineups, correct-score pick and four-leg Bet Builder.

Fenerbahce vs Liverpool Bet Builder

Ladbrokes share their Fenerbahce vs Liverpool Bet Builder ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League tie, which is coming in at 6/1.

• Leg 1 - Alexis Mac Allister 1+ shot on target

• Leg 2 - Dominik Szoboszlai 1+ shot on target

• Leg 3 - Both teams to score

• Leg 4 - Liverpool to win

Alexis Mac Allister 1+ shot on target

Alexis Mac Allister has scored three Champions League goals for Liverpool this season, including a brace against Villarreal. He has been given licence to move beyond the midfield base in Europe, and we expect him to get chances against a Fenerbahce side who have already conceded nine times during the league phase.

Dominik Szoboszlai 1+ shot on target

Dominik Szoboszlai returned from a hamstring problem as a second-half substitute against Arsenal, having spent much of October on the sidelines. With Ryan Gravenberch now injured himself, we expect Szoboszlai to play from the off here. He scored in his only Champions League game of the season, but averaged over one effort on goal per game in Europe last season, scoring five times in 12 matches.

Both teams to score

Liverpool’s three Champions League matches have produced 19 goals, with the Reds scoring 12 and conceding seven. Fenerbahce have found the net in each of their last four matches, including both of their most recent European fixtures. Liverpool carry the greater threat, but the fact they haven't played a Champions League game this season without conceding makes both teams to score an appealing pick.

Liverpool to win

Liverpool have taken nine points from nine in Europe, while Fenerbahce have collected two and sit 31st in the league-phase table. The hosts also come into this contest after consecutive 2-1 domestic defeats. Liverpool’s quality and European form should help them return to winning ways in Istanbul.
