Galatasaray

Form: DWDWW

Galatasaray stumbled in their recent match, posing a threat to their title defense this season as a 1-1 draw against Sivasspor away from home has left them trailing league leaders Fenerbahce in the standings.

This marked their third draw in nineteen matches played this season, and they are one game away from totaling the same tally of stalemates picked up from the previous season, which is rather concerning as the season is still far from over, putting their title defense in question. However, there's some positivity to be taken from their performance, as they have maintained a consistent form, notching five wins from their last seven matches, a commendable run they'll want to capitalize on to get back on track.

With 48 points accumulated from 19 matches, Galatasaray comfortably sits second in the Turkish Super Lig standings, twelve points ahead of third-placed Trabzonspor and two points adrift of the zenith.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Muslera; Bulbul, Nelsson, Bardakci, Karatas; Demirbay, Torreira; Zaha, Mertens, Yilmaz; Dervisoglu

Kayserispor

Form: LLLLW

Kayserispor, on the other hand, are a side challenging for the European football spots this season, having fallen short in the previous season, finishing in ninth place. However, the Anatolian Star have shown signs of faltering recently as they slowly drift away from the desired spot.

In their latest match, they succumbed to a convincing 4-1 away defeat against Fatih Karagumruk, which marked their fourth consecutive defeat since a 2-0 home win against Pendikspor on December 10th, 2023. Putting aside their poor form in the league, getting back on track could prove to be an arduous task as they have failed to win their last six away matches in this fixture.

With 29 points accumulated from 19 matches, Kayserispor sits seventh in the Turkish Super Lig standings, one point ahead of eighth-placed Antalyaspor and six points adrift of a European football spot.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Bayazit; Sazdagi, Kolovetsios, Kocaman, Kaldirim; Karimi, Yilmaz, Ackah; Thiam, Boa Morte, Bahoken
