Besiktas and Sporting CP are determined to get their first points in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night.

Besiktas lost to Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in their first game in Group C before bowing out to Ajax 2-0 in Amsterdam.

The Black Eagles followed that game with a 2-1 win over Sivasspor in the Turkish League where Guven Yalcin scored twice. But Besiktas again lost to Istanbul Basaksehir 3-2 in their last game.

Mehmet Topal, Georges-Kévin Nkoudou, Miralem Pjanic and Kenan Karaman will not be able to play in this game due to their injuries.

Sporting CP tasted a 5-1 defeat to Ajax in their opening Champions League game before losing to Borussia Dortmund 1-0 on Matchday 2.

The Lions came out on top with back-to-back wins against Arouca (2-1) in the Portuguese League and Belenenses (4-0) in the Portuguese Cup. Only Pote is unlikely to play for Sporting in Turkey.

Besiktas and Sporting CP last met in the group stage of the 2015-16 Europa League.
