Team News

Galatasaray
Rizespor
  • Michy Batshuayi will deputise for the injured Mauro Icardi as new arrival Victor Osimhen lacks match fitness and will likely start on the bench.
  • The other new arrival, Ismail Jakobs, is expected to start though.
  • Ali Yesilyurt, who wasn't expected to start here, is also injured.
  • Benhur Keser, who wasn't expected to start here, is manager Ilhan Palut's only injury concern.
  • Ivo Grbic is expected to make his debut here.

Prediction

  • Galatasaray demolished Adana Demirspor 5-1 last time out. They were expected to cruise to a victory against the troubled Adana side and Buruk's team delivered. Gala fans are ecstatic with the arrival of Osimhen on loan although it remains to be seen how Buruk will use Icardi, Osimhen, and Batshuayi, who has been very impressive in his new club.
  • Rizespor suffered a shocking 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Kasimpasa last time out. They created quite a few chances but lacked composure in front of goal. Players such as Verasenovic and Hadziahmetovic have not delivered so far this season and Palut also seems not to have decided on his ideal lineup yet.
  • The Lions are very likely to cruise to a victory here.
