Galatasaray vs Istanbulspor Betting Tips: Galatasaray to win / Over 2.5 goals

Two teams, who have had contrasting luck this season, will face each other on Thursday. It seems probable that the home team will secure an easy win.

Currently, Hosts Gala are sharing the top spot in the division, trailing behind their fierce rivals Fenerbahce solely on goal difference. On the other hand, Istanulspor has had a challenging season and presently occupy the bottom spot in the league, having garnered a meager ten points from 21 games.

As anticipated, Galatasaray, who are ahead by a whopping 44 points, are predicted to secure another victory on Thursday. The home team boasts seven wins from their last ten league games, with at least two goals scored in six of those triumphs.

Omar Buruk’s team has shown remarkable dominance at home in recent months, notching an impressive 23 wins in their last 24 home league games. They scored a whopping 60 goals in these victories, with at least two goals being netted in 20 of the 23 wins.

It would be a huge surprise if anything other than a dominant home win occurs, given that Istanbulspor has lost seven of their last nine away matches.

Gala has dominated recent meetings between these sides, with nine victories in their last ten encounters since 2004.

While the visitors are unlikely to fall heavily, I do expect Galatasaray to win with at least three match goals scored. That outcome has occurred in eight of the hosts last home league matches and should prove our best bet for Thursday´s Super Liga contest.

Galatasaray team news

Head Coach Buruk cannot rely on Cedric Bakambu and Hakim Ziyech, as they are currently on international duty at the AFCON.

Sergio Oliveira is expected to stay on the sidelines, but there’s a good chance that top scorer Mauro Icardi could make a comeback to the starting XI. He made his return as a substitute in Gala’s 5:1 victory over Trabzonspor last weekend.
