Final preparations for Galatasaray before their Champions League clash with Schalke.
They are looking to qualify for the quarter finals for the first time since 2001.
Gala won their final three group games and have strengthened their squad since then with
Wesley Sneider and Didier Drogba joining the Turkish league leaders.
Drogba's last kick in the Champions League was the penalty that won the title for Chelsea
last season.
Galatasaray are in confident mood.
"Schalke never lost a game in their group and you will see a serious and powerful team
tomorrow night. I hope and believe that when the match is over it will be our victory.
As I said, we will play against a team that is very effective."
"We are on the right path and we have a really good team. Our target is clear that we want
to win this game. We believe that we've prepared very well for this match. Tomorrow, we would
like to play well and go to Germany with a good score."
Schalke have only won once in their last twelve games, Galatasaray will be hoping to make
that 13.
