Team News

Konyaspor
Galatasaray
  • New arrival Josip Calusic has suffered a broken fibula and will not feature here.
  • Davinson Sanchez has suffered a hamstring strain and will not be available until September. Victor Nelsson will start.

Prediction

  • Konyaspor were 3-2 winners against Kasimpasa last time out. New arrivals have added massive strength to this squad. Nayir already got on the scoresheet, Akyol and Pedrinho looked dynamic, and Aleksic was clinical in his passing. Most of their chances in that game came from set-pieces but against Galatasaray they will not keep possession of the ball and might create more counter-attacking chances than last time out.
  • Galatasaray beat Hatayspor 2-1 last time out. This proved to be a much more difficult fixture than anyone imagined and the title-holders needed two goals in the last 10 minutes to avoid a massive upset. Buruk's men did create a lot of chances but didn't have the dynamism that has defined their last two seasons.
  • This is going to be a tight contest and the hosts are likely to get a point.
