Kayserispor

WWDWDW 📈

Kayserispor come into this meeting following on from a 3-1 Super Lig win in the defeat of Antalyaspor in their most recent match.

In that match, Kayserispor managed 51% possession and 12 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. The scorer for Kayserispor was Miguel Cardoso (12', 29', 63'). Antalyaspor had 6 shots on goal with 2 on target. Thalisson Kelven (26') was the scorer for Antalyaspor.

Over the course of their previous six clashes, Kayserispor have helped themselves to the sum of 11 goals. Kayserispor have also managed to score in every single one of those games. During that period, they have had 5 goals go against them. That sort of pattern won’t necessarily be sustained into this match, however.

Taking a look at their past results, Kayserispor:

• have not emerged victorious against Galatasaray when they've played them away from home in the last 7 league matches. Not good at all.
• are undefeated in their previous 3 away league matches.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 2 league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Galatasaray

There is just the lone fitness concern for the Galatasaray boss Okan Buruk to be concerned about from an otherwise fully-primed squad. Mauro Icardi (Cruciate ligament tear) is sidelined.

ℹ️ Team News: Kayserispor

Kayserispor boss Sergej Jakirović has a number of players out of action. Yaw Ackah (Muscle injury) and Stéphane Bahoken (Achilles tendon rupture) can’t be considered.

💡 Prediction

We feel that Galatasaray will probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.

Conversely, Kayserispor won’t find it easy to score a goal of their own - but, we do see them managing to get on the scoresheet.

We can therefore see a controlled 3-1 win for Galatasaray at full-time.
