The second leg of this Champions League last 16 encounter is finely poised after a draw in the first leg in Turkey.
Schalke's hopes of making the quarter-finals have been dealt a blow following an injury to Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, who was stretchered off against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday with a knee injury. Teemu Pukki should start in his place, with Ciprian Marica out and Raffael cup-tied.
The Holland frontman is out of the return leg but coach Jens Keller claimed his side would be ready for the match.
Galatasaray, who will last season's Champions League winner in January signings Didier Drogba from Chelsea as well as Wesley Sneijder from Inter Milan, can take confidence from the fact that they have already won twice on their travels in Europe so far this campaign.
Turkish Super Lig leaders Gala have had one more day to prepare than their hosts, but suffered an embarrassing 1-0 home defeat to Genclerbirligi in their last outing last Friday.
However,Felipe Melo should also start after being suspended against Genclerbirligi, Wesley Sneijder should be involved and Emmanuel Eboue is also pushing for a start, but Tomas Ujfalusi is out due to injury.
