The Turkish Super Cup takes place on Saturday with what will surely be an intriguing fixture between Galatasaray and Besiktas at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium.
The Turkish league champions Galatasaray come into this game with just three wins in their last six games. Defeats to Parma, Dusseldorf and LASK would have left them disappointed, something they will need to turn around in this fixture.
That six game run though has proven that they are perfectly capable of scoring goals. 15 goals in that run is an impressive record. That combined with the 96 they ended up scoring in last season’s league campaign especially is scary viewing for any opponent they may come up against.
Besiktas on the other hand come into this game on fairly good form having won four of their last five games. That being said they have certainly faced easier opponents with their toughest game against Shakhtar Donetsk ending in defeat.
However defensively they have been incredibly solid having only conceded three goals in those five games. They are certainly a tough team to break down.
Cim-Bom are by far the stronger side in this fixture in particular though often beating Besiktas - especially in recent years. In fact Besiktas haven’t beaten Galatasaray since October 2021 losing every game since then.
The gulf in class between the two sides is telling with Galatasaray surely the favourites to come away with the victory in this game even amongst Besiktas’ hot run of form.
That is why our team of professional experts are backing Galatasaray to win at odds of 21/20. A £10 bet could return up to £20.50 making it our best value tip for this fixture.
