Team News

Galatasaray
Alanyaspor
  • Manager Okan Buruk has a full squad available to pick from.
  • Manager Fatih Tekke has a full squad available to pick from.

Prediction

  • Galatasaray suffered a shocking 2-1 defeat at the hands of Hatayspor last time out. They looked exhausted following the mid-week Champions League game against Bayern Munich. Two problems await Buruk in the short run. First, although their attacking force is apparent, the Lions have suffered from an inexplicable profligacy in recent weeks. Second, and more importantly, the likes of Ziyech and Tete have not contributed as much as has been expected. Against Alanyaspor, these are not going to cause the title-holders any problems but if they are going to compete in all three fronts, Buruk needs to find a solution to both as quickly as possible.
  • Alanyaspor were beaten 3-0 by Gaziantep last time out. Tekke is finding it difficult to turn things around at the Mediterranean club. They control possession but are unable to create clear, threatening chances and their defending is simply woeful. Against the strongest attacking lineup in the Super Lig, Alanyaspor will struggle.
