On Wednesday evening, Galatasaray will host Premier League team Manchester United in Istanbul. Both teams, hailing from UEFA Champions League Group A, still have the opportunity to advance to the knockout rounds.
Galatasaray has kicked off their domestic season impressively, securing victories in eleven of their initial thirteen matches, with only goal difference putting them behind the leading team, Fenerbahçe. Their performance in the Champions League has not provided much cause for celebration, entering this match following two losses against Bayern on the third and fourth match days. Nevertheless, their triumph over Man United at Old Trafford on the second match day will remain a cherished memory for their supporters.
Domestically, Manchester United have had a rocky start to the season, especially after their third-place finish last season. A challenging September saw them endure three losses in four league games, sparking discussions about Erik ten Haag’s potential dismissal. However, the Red Devils have since addressed their issues on the home front, currently enjoying a three-game winning streak in the league. Despite their domestic success, the English team remains at the bottom of Group A in the Champions League. With the understanding that anything short of a victory this week could potentially derail their chances of advancing to the knockout stages, it is anticipated that the visiting team will bring their best game.
Galatasaray vs Manchester United Betting Tips: Both teams to score
This season in Europe, Galatasaray’s forward line has proven to be an unyielding force. From the qualifying rounds onward, the Süper Lig team has consistently scored at least one goal in each of the ten European games they’ve played. So far, all four of their Group A matches have resulted in successful bets on both teams scoring.
Manchester United has recently shown strong defense in the league, however, in Europe, the Red Devils have managed to keep a clean sheet only once this season. In three out of their four Group A games so far, both teams have managed to score.

Erik ten Hag, Manchester United’s boss, won’t have Marcus Rashford available for Wednesday’s game due to suspension. Rashford scored his second goal of the 2023-24 season in the last league victory over Everton, but will be absent in the upcoming match.
Rashford was red-carded in the first half of the defeat to Copenhagen on matchday three so will be missing this week for the Red Devils, who are also without Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martínez, Christian Eriksen, Rasmus Højlund, Mason Mount and Amad Diallo through injury.
Antony missed United's game last weekend due to injury but the Brazilian is expected to recover in time for the trip to Ä°stanbul.
