This is Istanbul's first year competing in the Champions League, and the Turkish champions are looking to get points on the board after falling to both RB Leipzig and PSG.
Despite the loss, Istanbul bounced back with a 2-1 win over Konyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday. Goals from midfielder Marko Jevtovic and striker Danijel Aleksic sealed the victory for the defending champions.
Meanwhile, United lost to Arsenal, 1–0, this weekend, failing to win any of its first four matches at Old Trafford in the Premier League.
When asked about the clubs' UCL success and domestic league struggles, captain Harry Maguire said the team prepares for all competitions the same way.
"It's not something we can put our finger on," he said. "We take each game as it comes, we don't look if it's a Champions League game or a Premier League game. We try to win the game–that's our motivation every game we play in."
Turkey is allowing a limited number of spectators at matches, and Istanbul hosted 350 fans at last week's fixture with PSG. Wednesday will be the first time United have played in front of a crowd since March.
