As part of the ninth round of the Turkish championship, the big Istanbul derby will take place - Galatasaray will play Fenerbahce. The hosts are on the second line and are three points ahead of the competitor. Who will score points on October 26th? The answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Galatasaray
Galatasaray has already managed to score one victory this week. On October 21, the hosts scored a strong-willed victory over French Lille (4:2) in the Champions League with the active participation of Alexei Batrakov. The Russian equalized the score at the end of the first half, and in the second half of the meeting his partners brought the matter to victory. At the same time, in the Turkish championship, Okan Buruk's team is still only in second place and one point behind Amedspor, with one match left.
Fenerbahce
It's been a sad week for Fenerbahce so far. If today's opponent managed to recoup and win, then Fener, on the contrary, missed the advantage in the Champions League, and in a home match with a much more passable rival Slavia Prague. By the 11th minute, the Turkish club had a two-goal advantage, but in the end, Ismail Kartal's team missed the chance to win the first victory. The match ended with a score of 2:2.
Galatasaray will obviously be encouraged after their recent Champions League victory, and the visitors have failed twice in a row in this tournament - first there was a 0-6 defeat to Aston Villa, and then a points loss at home to Slavia. Fenerbahce's disappointment is sure to continue in the derby, but Galatasaray is stronger at the moment, and home advantage should play a role. We believe that the hosts will return to the first place.
