Factbox on Tuesday's matches in Group D of the Champions League:
GALATASARAY v OLYMPIAKOS
Galatasaray's Romanian defender Sebastian Tamas has been left out of the squad due to a wrist injury while striker Umit Karan and midfielder Volkan Arslan are also ruled out.
Forward Hasan Sas is suspended but striker Hakan Sukur is expected to play despite breaking his nose in Friday's league game against Rizespor, which Galatasaray won 1-0.
Olympiakos, who like Galatasaray have lost both their opening games, have a clean bill of health for the first meeting between a Greek and Turkish club in the Champions League.
Olympiakos's only absentee is striker Lambros Houtos, sidelined after a row with coach Oleg Protasov and facing a heavy fine.
In his absence the makeshift pairing of Brazilian Giovanni and Uruguayan teenager Neri Castillo lead the attack having both scored in Saturday's 2-0 win over Kallithea.
Probable teams:
Galatasaray: 1-Faryd Mondragon, 3-Bulent Korkmaz, 29-Cesar Prates, 5-Frank de Boer, 23-Suat Usta, 67-Ergun Penbe, 18-Ayhan Akman, 19-Cihan Haspolatli, 55-Sabri Sarioglu, 8-Joao Batista, 10-Hakan Sukur.
Olympiakos: 22-Fanis Katergiannakis, 3-Stelios Venetidis, 18-Paraskevas Antzas, 32-Giorgos Anatolakis, 1-Pantelis Kafes, 6-Ieroklis Stoltidis, 5-Christian Karembeu, 11-Predrag Djordjevic, 30-Alekos Pantos, 7-Neri Castillo, 10-Giovanni.
Referee: Urs Meier (Switzerland).
JUVENTUS v REAL SOCIEDAD
Italian champions Juventus can count on a fresh team after striker David Trezeguet, defender Lilian Thuram and midfielder Mauro Camoranesi were all either rested or played for only a few minutes during the club's 3-2 weekend win at Ancona.
Midfielder Pavel Nedved returns to the team after recovering from a slight hamstring strain.
Their only doubt regards central defender Nicola Legrottaglie, who faces a fitness test on Monday. Mark Iuliano stands by.
Like Juve, Sociedad have made a perfect start to their first appearance in European's premier club competition for 21 seasons but they have been inconsistent in the Primera Liga and slumped to surprise 3-1 defeat at Albacete at the weekend.
Despite the setback coach Raynald Denoueix is likely to make only minor adjustments to the side. Former Paris St Germain defender Lionel Potillon may be drafted in to shore up the back four.
Norwegian defender Bjorn Tore Kvarme is out with a leg strain but South Korean forward Lee Chun-soo has recovered from a throat infection and will make the trip to Turin.
Probable teams:
Juventus: 1-Gianluigi Buffon, 21-Lilian Thuram, 13-Mark Iuliano, 4-Paolo Montero, 19-Gianluca Zambrotta, 16-Mauro Camoranesi, 3-Alessio Tacchinardi, 26-Edgar Davids, 11-Pavel Nedved, 17-David Trezeguet, 9-Fabrizio Miccoli.
Real Sociedad: 25-Sander Westerveld, 22-Lionel Potillon, 7-Igor Jauregi, 6-Gabriel Schurrer, 3-Agustin Aranzabal, 8-Valery Karpin, 11-Mikel Aranburu, 4-Xabi Alonso, 10-Javi de Pedro, 15-Nihat Kahveci, 9-Darko Kovacevic.
Referee: Graham Poll (England).
