Our prediction for this Champions League match:
Galatasaray play host to Lokomotiv Moscow at their Turk Telekom Stadyumu in the opening match of their Champions League campaign. The Turkish side will play a match in the elite competition for the first time since 2015 when they failed to make it to the knockout stages and, no doubt, they will host Lokomotiv in front of packed stadium. Lokomotiv Moscow return to the Champions League following a 14-year absence and, no doubt, they are eager to give fans some cheer. The two teams seem to be evenly matched ahead of Tuesday’s football game and we predict that they are going to share the spoils at Turk Telekom Stadyumu in the opening match of their Champions League campaign. A man to watch in the home team will be Switzerland international Eren Derdiyok, whereas Galatasaray defenders should have Peruvian winger Jefferson Farfan at bay.

Founded in 1922 as Kazanka, Lokomotiv Moscow are a Russian football club that play their home games at RZD Arena. The stadium was opened in July 2002 and the capacity of the venue is 27.320. Lokomotiv won their first Russian Premier League trophy in 2002, with the team finishing the season just above their local rivals CSKA Moscow.
The two teams were level on points (66), but thanks to a better head-to-head record Lokomotiv eventually lifted the trophy. Two years later (2004) the capital club repeated the success and once again CSKA Moscow finished second, only one point behind the Krasno-zelyonyye (Red-Greens). Lokomotiv Moscow have always been attracting high-profile footballers and it has to be noted that the likes of Felipe Caicedo, Peter Odemwingie, Branislav Ivanovic, Igor Denisov, Dmitri Torbinski, Vedran Corluka, Emir Spahic, Lassana Diarra and Jan Durica played for the club in the past.
Lokomotiv play their home games in green shirts and red shorts, while they wear white jerseys and white shorts when playing on the travels.
