Liverpool will look to make it four wins from four matches in the UEFA Champions League when they pay a visit to Fenerbahce on Wednesday.
Andoni Iraola and the Reds head to Istanbul, Turkey, for one of two matches in the early kick-off window on Wednesday afternoon in the Champions League.
After claiming three points against Atletico Madrid, LASK, and Villarreal already in the competition, Liverpool has the opportunity to draw level on points with PSG at the top of the league phase table with a win in Matchday 4.
And Iraola’s side will be favored to do so, with oddsmakers installing the Reds as -210 favorites to win the match, while Fenerbahce are rated +480 underdogs to come away with their first three points in this season’s Champions League. A draw is priced at +400 odds.
Despite suffering just their second defeat of the season in a 1-0 loss to Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday, Liverpool will be expected to make it four wins from four in Europe’s elite club competition, as evidenced by the betting odds ahead of the tie.
The Reds have been one of the highest-scoring clubs in the competition thus far with 12 goals, including 10 in their last two contests against LASK and Villarreal.
The defense, however, has not been up to the same standard as it has in the Premier League, with the Reds shipping six total goals between those two victories — more than they’ve conceded across their last seven Premier League fixtures dating back to the start of September.

The betting odds rate more than 3.5 goals to be scored in the match at -104 odds, while under 3.5 total goals carries -118 odds.
Both teams to score in the 90 minutes is priced at -205 odds, suggesting oddsmakers believe both sides will get on the scoresheet.
Fenerbahce are enduring a difficult season in the Turkish Super Lig and currently sit sixth in the table, nine points off first-place Galatasaray entering Wednesday’s match against Liverpool.
So far this season in the Champions League, the hosts have drawn 1-1 with Roma, fallen 6-0 to Aston Villa, and drawn 2-2 at home against Slavia Prague.
Emre Belozoglu’s side sit in 31st out of 36 teams in the league phase table on just two points following Tuesday’s UCL action.
