Istanbul football club Besiktas are hoping for a miracle against Germany's Bayern Munich in a UEFA Champions League Round 16 second-leg match on Wednesday as Bayern previously won the first match 5-0 in Munich last month.
Hosts Besiktas may lack their Croatian defender Domagoj Vida as he was sent off in the first match.
In addition to Vida, other Besiktas defenders Pepe and Dusko Tosic are having injury problems.
No Bayern Munich players are suspended for the match, but French winger Kingsley Coman and the team's starting goalkeeper Manuel Neuer are injured. Both are expected to miss the game.
Separately, Bayern Munich midfielders Corentin Tolisso and James Rodriguez are doubtful.
The match at Vodafone Park will kick off at 8 p.m. local time in Turkey (1700GMT) and will be officiated by English referee Michael Oliver.

Player of the match Ben Yedder said the game was a difficult one but they managed to score the goals they needed.
"The coach told us to believe that anything was possible. I think we deserved it -- we played very well today," said Yedder.
