Schalke v Galatasaray Live Streaming : Champions League tie in balance in Germany
Its Schalke v Galatasaray as Bet365 release the latest odds and live stream service of all the Champions League action this week.
Schalke host Galatasaray on Tuesday evening in the Champions League round of 16 second leg and although many will be watching what happens at the Nou Camp, this has the makings of a cracking tie.
The score is currently level at 1-1, so as Schalke will feel as though they have a slight advantage after grabbing themselves a vital away goal in Istanbul three weeks ago. However, the Turkish side are more than capable of scoring in Germany this time out, so it does look to be fairly even at this stage.

The Bundesliga outfit come into this one on a high as well after their 2-1 win over bitter rivals Borussia Dortmund over the weekend. It was a result that should have built confidence ahead of this massive clash and would have given the fans plenty to cheer about, so they are sure to be in full voice on Tuesday night.
Schalke have now won three games in a row and haven’t lost in five across all competitions ,so they are playing some good football right now and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has finally found a bit of form with two goals in as many games.
The Dutch international is vital to Schalke’s hopes of qualifying on the night and it is no surprise that he is being tipped as the current favourite to break the deadlock at 9/2.
The home team also know that if they stop their opponents from scoring, they will reach the quarter-finals, so although playing attacking football is important, they must also remain solid at the back and not allow the visitors any time in the final third. They are at 4/9 to qualify.
Galatasaray come into this one on the back of a 1-0 defeat in the Turkish Premier League, which is far from ideal preparation.
However, with the experience and big-name players they have in the squad, spirits should have remained high for this encounter and despite being underdogs, they are very much still in this tie.
One man who could hold the key to the visitors’ success is Wesley Sneijder. If he can get on the ball at regular intervals, then Galatasaray are likely to create a lot of chances here. In truth, whichever Dutchman – Sneijder or Huntelaar – can put in the best performance on the night could be on the winning side.
The team from Turkey are sure to bring a lot of fans with them as well, who are going to make plenty of noise and look to out-sing the Schalke supporters, which is of course going to be tough. Galatasaray can be backed at 21/10 to reach the quarter-finals.
No one is expects either of these two to go on and win the Champions League, but whichever side is able to qualify on Tuesday night gives themselves a chance of upsetting all the odds and you certainly can’t write anyone off after Chelsea’s heroics last year.
It should be a scintillating 90 minutes – possibly more – of action in Germany and this isn’t a game you want to be missing. As always, kick-off is at 7.45PM.
