Galatasaray SK
- Okan Buruk’s Galatasaray SK have been the dominant force in the Super Lig 2025/2026 season, with their tactical versatility and high-pressing style keeping them at the summit with 55 points from 23 games.
- Galatasaray SK have won their last two outings at home, thrashing Eyupspor 5-1 last time out and keeping a home fortress mentality.
- Buruk has employed a double pivot and high-tempo, pressing 4-2-3-1 system which allows his side to control the game centrally before transitioning to a high-tempo game in which the wide areas and Mauro Icardi can thrive.
- Kerem Aktürkoğlu is the provider of the creativity and goal threat from wide areas while Icardi is the talisman, scoring 13 Super Lig goals in 22 appearances and netting four of Galatasaray SK’s last 13 goals.
Alanyaspor
- Joao Pereira’s Alanyaspor sit in 10th place in the Super Lig table with 26 points from the same 23 games as the leaders.
- Alanyaspor’s last three games have seen them draw 2-2 away to Besiktas, beat Konyaspor 2-1 at home and lose 2-1 to Istanbul Basaksehir.
- They have drawn both of their last two away games and will need to perform well here to continue their momentum.
- Alanyaspor have a high-energy system with their three-at-the-back system providing plenty of width through their wing-backs and a compactness in which Oğuz Aydın can provide pace and directness on the flank, perfect for breaking on the counter.
- Guven Yalcin is their main attacking outlet and has six goals in 17 Super Lig appearances, scoring three of Alanyaspor’s last seven goals.
