Besitkas will be hoping they can recover from the 8-0 rout at Anfield on Matchday 4 even as their hopes of making it to the knock out stages of the UEFA Champions League are all but over. The Turkish side was humiliated at Liverpool and they will hope they can perform better in front of home fans.

 

If Beşiktaş manage to beat Olympique de Marseille, Group A will be thrown wide open with everything to play for on the final Matchday. This scenario will become even more interesting should Liverpool beat Porto in the other game in Group A.

Beşiktaş began with a 1-0 loss to Porto and a 2-0 loss to Marseille before recovering with a fine win against Liverpool. Sami Hyypiä netted an own goal in that game, but Steven Gerrard had equalized for the visitors. However Bobo got the crucial goal, which clinched a win and opened their account in the Champions League. Then came Matchday 4 with its horror result. Beşiktaş are fourth in Group A with 3 points from 4 games.

 

Olympique de Marseille on the other hand know that a win at Beşiktaş will guarantee them a spot in the knock out stages. Last year's Ligue 1 runners-up began in spectacular fashion with a 2-0 win over Beşiktaş and followed it up with a shock 1-0 win away at Liverpool on Matchday 2 before slipping to a 1-1 draw against Porto on Matchday 3. On Matchday 4, the team lost 2-1 to Porto.

 

Marseille's new coach Erik Gerets will be hoping to avoid having to get a result in their final match in the Champions League group stages. Marseille have an injury worry in the form of Carrasso, who could be out for six weeks after he suffered an Achilles tendon injury. Marseille are second in Group A with 7 points from 4 games.
