GALATASARAY VS TRABZONSPOR PREVIEW & PREDICTION

On Sunday, leader Galatasaray Trabzonspor will visit. Earlier this season, Trabzonspor won 2-1. This was also the first defeat of the season for Cimbom. Does Galatasaray know to take revenge for his own public?

Galatasaray:

It will be an exciting title fight in Turkey. The top four is so close together that every point loss can lead to a new leader. Galatasaray is currently at the forefront with only one point more than Basaksehir. Cimbom has done good business in recent weeks and has been unbeaten in the last four weeks. Last time they took it out against Fenerbahce. It was a fairly consistent game, with both sides having a number of good chances. Goalkeeper Fernando Muslera played a strong game and kept Fenerbahce from scoring. Galatasaray himself did not go well with his chances that they themselves did not score. Especially the goal attempt of Tolga Cigerci in the 94th minute will not be forgotten. Cigerci had free shooting chance, but did not touch the ball.

Coach Fatih Terim was satisfied with the displayed game: ‘We played well and also got some big chances. We did our best, but the ball just did not want it. “Terim wants nothing more than winning Trabzonspor: ‘If we want to become champion, we just have to win. Trabzonspor is attacked by fast counters. We have to be careful. ”

At Galatasaray things are going a lot better with Eren Derdiyok and Jason Denayer. Martin Linnes does have a slight injury, so it is not certain that he will be able to play. The same goes for Selcuk Inan and this fans will not like it. Fernando Reges is suspended and if Inan can not play, Tolga Cigerci and Ryan Donk will be in the midfield. Cigerci is not very popular and does not form a good duo with Donk.

Trabzonspor:

Trabzonspor is doing good business this season under Riza Calimbay. Calimbay lost his first game with the Storm, but then managed to remain unbeaten for twelve games. At a certain point, however, things did not go that well with Trabzonspor. They did not win for six weeks and finally an unbeaten run ended. The Storm seems to be digging up. They managed to win their last two matches. First they won with 3-1 from Akhisarspor and then they won at home 4-1 against Yeni Malatyaspor.

At Trabzonspor they had trouble finding the net. So this seems to have changed, because they managed to find the net seven times in the last two matches. Top scorer Burak Yilmaz managed to find the net twice in these matches and brings his total to twenty. Yilmaz was also good for two assists.

Riza Calimbay is satisfied with the performance of his team and also has great expectations against Galatasaray. According to the coach, they have sufficient capacity to win from the leader. Calimbay wants his team to exert a lot of pressure on the midfield. The coach is of the opinion that Galatasaray will not be able to cope with this and by stealing the ball there, the Storm will be able to create a lot of danger through fast counters.
