Team News

Galatasaray
Yeni Malatyaspor
  • Tolga Cigerci is ruled out of this match due to injury.
  • Sinan Gumus is expected to deputise for the suspended Sofiane Feghouli, while Linnes will start as Mariano is out with an injury.
  • Aziz was injured at the 83rd minute last week and is a doubt. If he doesn't feature, Denayer will deputise for him.
  • As both Pereira and Dening are out with injuries, Adem Buyuk will feature as the right winger and Eren Tozlu will start on the left.

Prediction

  • There are only 180 minutes left for Galatasaray to clinch the title. The performance against Akhisar last week was far from impressive, but at this stage of the season, whether you play good or bad doesn't really matter. Terim is fortunate as he has players who can step up when the team is underperforming, such as Rodrigues, who scored twice last week, and Muslera, who has been in immense form in 2018. Against Malatyaspor, who can frustrate opponents with their deep defending and ultra-defensive approach, Terim's men will have to be patient and apply pressure while not giving too much space at the back. Should they manage that, there is no doubt one of the stars in the team will find the net one way or another.
  • Bulut's men know how to defend and they are not ashamed to. They have to be congratulated for sitting 10th in a season in which almost everyone expected them to be the first side to be relegated. Bulut is usually extra motivated in games against the big three, but at this stage of the season, we're unlikely to see Malatyaspor get anything out of this away fixture.
  • The game will likely be tougher than many expect, but Terim's men will get the three points in the end.

  • @Cannavaro69 it's a hard match. But Galatasara will win.Malatya Manager(Erol Bulut) is former Fenerbahçe player. Malatya will play very defensive. Probable lineups 6-3-1. Even If Gala win Champion will be revealed in the last game
