📰 Barcelona, perfect in all competitions this season, travel to Galatasaray for Champions League matchday two on 13 October. 📌 Key points 🏟️ Kick-off is 9pm Spanish time at RAMS Park in Istanbul. 🔥 Barça have won all nine competitive games this season. 🚑 Raphinha and Frenkie de Jong miss the trip once again. 🤐 Flick on Vinicius: 'Ask me again in two weeks.' 🇹🇷 Galatasaray lost their opener 3-1 away at Sporting CP. 📝 What happened ✈️ Barça flew to Istanbul on 12 October for the press conference and a session at the stadium, with the same 22-man squad that beat Getafe 3-0. According to AS, traffic held up Flick and Pau Cubarsí, delaying the press conference by 30 minutes. 🎙️ Flick warned about the noise: 'We have to be prepared for the atmosphere. It's one of the best in the world.' He added that Galatasaray 'have improved a lot against big teams, and we have to stick together'. 🤐 He was also asked about Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr, who faces a ban before El Clásico. 'I hope you'll learn someday that I never answer questions about other teams,' he said, and when asked if he wants Vinicius available: 'Ask me again in two weeks.' ⚽ Gabriel Jesus is expected to lead the line without Raphinha. 'He's ready. Whether he plays, we'll decide after training,' said Flick, praising his behaviour as 'fantastic'. 📊 By the numbers • 9 wins from 9 in all competitions, 39 goals (Daily Sabah) • La Liga: 8 wins from 8, 24 points • Matchday one: Barça 5-1 Feyenoord, Galatasaray lost 3-1 at Sporting CP • No 0-0 draw in Barça's last 44 Champions League games (Daily Sabah) 👀 What to watch 🔊 The RAMS Park roar — Flick himself called it one of the best atmospheres in the world. Daily Sabah says Galatasaray have lost only once in their last 11 European home games. ⚽ Jesus as the No 9 — with Raphinha out, the summer signing could get another start up front. 🛡️ Buruk's promise — Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk said everyone will call Barça favourites, but his side will attack rather than just defend. 🔁 Ten in a row — a win would make it ten straight in all competitions and two from two in Europe. 🔭 Why it matters After this trip Barça head towards El Clásico against Real Madrid at Camp Nou on 25 October. A first away win in this Champions League campaign would carry more momentum into that game.
