Ankaragucu, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Ankaragucu players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Konyaspor. Their share of possession in that meeting was 48%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target, in contrast to Konyaspor, who had 13 shots on goal with 1 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Emre Belözoğlu will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 5 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games.
Ankaragucu will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing at home this season, with 6 draws in 13 home league games.
Galatasaray, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-0 home win over Istanbul Basaksehir in their last league game, Galatasaray will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 18 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Istanbul Basaksehir who had 10 attempts and 2 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 16 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Okan Buruk will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 4 goals in the same period. They've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 away games, and they've scored in 23 of their 25 games overall this season.
They are showing impressive league form with a run of 6 straight wins in a row and are also unbeaten in their last 13 games.
Kerem Aktürkoğlu will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Galatasaray.
It was not a positive ending for Ankaragucu last time they met Galatasaray in the league, with the game ending in a 2-1 defeat.
Cimbom will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Ankaragucu having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 5 meetings.
Ankaragucu have lost the last 3 times they've faced Galatasaray in the league and have failed to win in their last 3 encounters.
With only Tolga Ciğerci (Calf) and Alper Uludağ (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Emre Belözoğlu will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Okan Buruk has a number of injury concerns in his Galatasaray squad to contend with: Abdülkerim Bardakcı (Hamstring), Sérgio Oliveira (Muscle) and Hakim Ziyech (Thigh)
