Team News

Galatasaray
Trabzonspor
  • Nicolo Zaniolo, who is rumoured to be on his way out of the club, is sidelined with an injury.
  • Summer arrival Mislav Orsic has suffered a cruciate ligament rupture and will not be available until 2024.
  • Fellow summer arrival Joaquin Fernandez is also injured so Stefano Denswil will start.
  • Edin Visca had to be subbed off with an injury against Antalyaspor last time out. He will be monitored and if deemed unfit, Enis Bardhi will start.

Prediction

  • Galatasaray dropped two points at Kayseri in their season opener. They were uncharacteristically wasteful in front of goal and had to rely on Muslera to keep them in the game. However, this squad boasts so much attacking talent that it is certain they will not misfire like that very often.
  • Trabzonspor started their season with a 1-0 win over Antalyaspor. They looked very threatening in set pieces but lacked the spark to create chances from open play. Visca's injury, if serious, will be a blow as despite his age, he is still the main creative figure in this team.
  • Galatasaray's squad and bench are much stronger than their opponent's and they should be able to get their first win of the season in front of their raucous fans.
