🗞️ Team News: Fenerbahçe
We are thinking that Sarı Kanaryalar should kick off with a 4-1-4-1 system this time, beginning the first half with Ederson, Nélson Semedo, Milan Skriniar, Jayden Oosterwolde, Levent Mercan, İsmail Yüksek, Dorgeles Nene, Marco Asensio, Edson Álvarez, Kerem Aktürkoglu and Jhon Durán.
📰 Team News: Galatasaray
Galatasaray boss Okan Buruk has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Kaan Ayhan (Groin injury), Ismail Jakobs (Calf injury), Berkan Kutlu (unknown injury) and Wilfried Singo (Hamstring strain) will not be playing here. The players ineligible for this match because of suspension are Roland Sallai and Eren Elmalı.
There’s a good chance that Cimbom seem most likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of Ugurcan Cakir, Kazimcan Karatas, Arda Unyay, Davinson Sánchez, Abdlkerim Bardakci, Mario Lemina, Lucas Torreira, Leroy Sane, Ilkay Gündogan, Baris Yilmaz and Victor Osimhen.
🧠 Prediction
Our feeling is that Galatasaray must be fancied to find the net against this Fenerbahçe side, however it isn’t expected to prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We can see a narrow 2-1 winning score for Fenerbahçe when all is said and done. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
