Galatasaray
Kayserispor
  • Kerem Demirbay will continue to start in midfield as Sergio Oliveira is injured.
  • Hakim Ziyech (Morocco) and Cedric Bakambu (DR Congo) are away at the AFCON 2023. The latter isn't a regular starter and Wilfred Zaha is set to deputise for the former.
  • Sacha Boey is having problems with his knee and Kaan Ayhan is on the injury list meaning Ali Turap Bulbul is likely to get another start here.
  • Tete is set to deputise for the suspended Kerem Akturkoglu.
  • According to media reports, after dropping points at Sivas, Okan Buruk has decided to start Mauro Icardi here. The Argentinian striker will be playing wearing a protective face mask.
  • Baris Alper Yilmaz will return to the starting XI after serving his suspension.
  • Arif Kocaman is expected to start at center back as Majid Hosseini is with the Iranian national team in Asia Cup and Julian Jeanvier with Guinea at AFCON.
  • Carlos Mane and Olivier Kemen are also at AFCON for Guinea-Bissau and Cameroon respectively. Aylton Boa Morte is likely to start on the wing in their absence.
  • Ramazan Civelek is set to deputise for the injured Miguel Cardoso.
  • Anthony Uzodimma, who wasn't expected to start here, is injured.

Prediction

  • Galatasaray were held to a 1-1 draw by Sivasspor last time out. Sivas's equaliser came from a late penalty but Buruk had no one to blame but his own players who wasted chance and after chance and failed to put the game to bed. Despite boasting a handful talented attacking players, the only natural and ever-reliable finisher in this squad is Icardi and in his absence, the Lions are not as threatening.
  • Kayserispor were demolished 4-1 by Karagumruk last time out. Losing by such a margin to one of the under-performers in the league shows Ucar's honeymoon at the club has already come to an end. This was their 4th defeat in a row and with so many key names missing, that streak is likely to continue here.
  • With Icardi potentially back in the starting XI, Gala are absolute favorites here.
