Konyaspor vs Galatasaray Prediction & Betting tips
Leader Basaksehir continues to stumble and scored again at the beginning of Matchday 30 – the chance for pursuer Galatasaray! With a win on Monday evening, the “lions” can equal and make the title race at the end of the season once again really exciting. Galatasaray will welcome city rivals Besiktas on Matchday 1, who continue to claim title opportunities in third place. Before the important city derby Galatasaray wants to allow no misfire and take advantage of the next mistake of Basaksehir.
During the week the “Lions” solved the final ticket in the “Türkiye Kupasi” with a rather strong offensive performance. In addition to the motivational boost from the cup competition, even the suspension of Basaksehir should be reason enough to give everything in the away game in Konya. A Konyaspor Vs. Galatasaray forecast on the guests is appropriate to the current circumstances. As in the year before Galatasaray has turned on in the second half and wants to take the title this season. It would be the 22nd title win in the club history of the Turkish record champions. Will Konyaspor be a surprising obstacle on the way there or will Gala use the next break of Basaksehir? On Monday night we hear it when the game between Konyaspor and Galatasaray at 18:00 clock (CET) in Konya Büyüksehir Belediye Stadium is kicked off!
Konyaspor:
Konyaspor is currently one of the weakest form in the Süper Lig. The Anatolian club is looking in vain for a win and may be lucky to have played such a solid first half, otherwise a relegation battle would have been inevitable. With eight points cushion on a relegation rank Konyaspor will probably burn at the end of the season nothing more. Konyaspor has not won a Süper Lig game since January 27 – that’s ten league games in a row! Success coach Aykut Kocaman will not have ticked off the season, as a possible Galatasaray cup win would mean that fifth place in the Süper Lig also guarantees a right to start the Europa League. Since Galatasaray will face the bottom of the table in the final, Akhisarspor, that scenario can be considered quite realistic. Kocaman, a former Fenerbahce coach on Monday night, will do his utmost to win against the “lions” at home. Not without reason are the away games in Konyaspor quite uncomfortable, especially since the Anatolian club in the past was able to keep up with the top teams in the Süper Lig again and again.
The weak form of the Kocaman elf must certainly not be ignored. Konyaspor still has a promising squad and will certainly be back in the top third of the season in the coming season. Adis Jahovic leads in Table Ten the internal scorer list with seven goals and a goal on. Also players like Ömer Ali Sahiner, Moryke Fofana or Nejc Skubic often made the difference. Konyaspor has a lot of individual quality and with Aykut Kocaman exactly the right trainer for it. Although Kocaman prefers a fairly defensive game system, the Konya coach has already been rewarded with success in his time at Fenerbahce. Home Konyaspor has been waiting for a home threesome for five home games.
Galatasaray:
Hungry “lions” are still on course! With a victory on Monday night, Galatasaray can match the leader, Basaksehir, and will not miss this opportunity. Already during the week Gala was able to solve the final ticket in the Türkiye Kupasi with a very convincing success with Yeni Malatyaspor. The “Lions” are the strongest back-round team of the Süper Lig and want to continue the trend in the league against Konyaspor, especially since the next matchday city derby against Besiktas is pending. At the rehearsal in Konya, however, the team of “Imperator” Fatih Terim is expected. The outward weakness of Galatasaray made itself noticeable in this calendar year, nevertheless, the Turkish record champion has presented much better than in the first round. The “lions” have significantly improved their condition since the arrival of the Italian athletic trainer Alberto Bartali and presented themselves solid over 90 minutes. In this calendar year, the “lions” conceded at league level just once conceded eight goals in the previous twelve games back. In a back round balance of 9-3-0, the “lions” shot a whopping 32 goals.
In the important away game in Konya Galatasaray can draw on the full. The “Lions” will face a pretty strong defensive against Konyaspor. If the counter-attacks are quickly stopped by the opponent, we look over the 90 minutes at Konyaspor against Galatasaray a forecast in favor of the guests as quite realistic. At the latest during the game should gaps in the Konya defensive arise, which are then exploited by the form-strong “lion”. After Mitroglou’s solid debut, Fatih Terim may be on the up with the Greek instead of top scorer Mbaye Diagne. Fatih Terim is unlikely to make any big changes. Can Galatasaray take advantage of the opportunity and move with Basaksehir?
