Won

Predicted Outcome Away Win
Confidence 60%

Galatasaray travel to Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadium looking to extend their unbeaten start and stay top of the early Süper Lig table. The defending champions have 7 points from three games (2 wins, 1 draw) and have already scored 9 goals, led by Victor Osimhen’s superb form (5 goals).

Başakşehir sit lower in the table with 4 points from three matches (1 win, 1 draw, 1 loss). They drew 1-1 at home with Kasımpaşa last time out and will rely on Eldor Shomurodov (3 goals) to trouble the visitors.

Form & Head-to-Head

  • Galatasaray: Unbeaten (W2 D1). High-scoring and confident under Okan Buruk.
  • Başakşehir: Mixed results. Competitive at home but have struggled against Galatasaray recently (lost the last five meetings).

Galatasaray have dominated this fixture in recent seasons and will be heavy favourites.

Team News

Başakşehir
Edin Višća is a doubt (knock). Yusuf Sarı could start on the wing.

Likely XI (4-2-3-1): Şengezer; Şahiner, Bayram, Opoku, Operi; Kemen, Güneş; Skov Olsen, Shomurodov, Fayzullaev/Sarı; Bozok.

Galatasaray
Rafael Leão (thigh) and Günay Güvenç are out. Leroy Sané is expected to start. New signing El Chadaille Bitshiabu is unlikely to feature.

Likely XI (4-2-3-1): Uğurcan Çakır; Sallai, Sánchez, Bardakçı, Jakobs; Torreira, Sara; Yunus Akgün, Batrakov, Sané; Osimhen.

Prediction

Başakşehir 1-3 Galatasaray

Galatasaray’s attacking quality (especially Osimhen) and overall squad depth should prove too much. Expect a high-scoring game with the champions taking all three points to stay top of the table.
