RB Leipzig vs Galatasaray Prediction & Betting tips
For RB Leipzig is the second test match of the current season preparation. The Bulls have been embarrassed in the recent preparation game against FC Zurich and went down after a catastrophic performance with 1: 4. In test matches, the result has not been a high priority, which is why the defeat for the new RB coach Julian Nagelsmann was also to cope. However, RB Leipzig will be in for the test of endurance against the Turkish record champions, especially since with Galatasaray there is a possible CL opponent in front of the chest. If the Bulls master the second test match and defeat the Turks, at RB Leipzig against Galatasaray for those tip odds of 2.10 are paid.
Julian Nagelsmann had turned in the test match against FC Zurich but strong. However, the second row at the Bulls was not exactly a promising performance, so it remains to be seen which start-up decisions the RB coach meets in the second Test match. The Turkish record champions meanwhile completed the first test match. With Muslera, Belhanda, Diagne and Feghouli important players in the squad are missing because of their international appearances. With Jean Michael Seri and Okan Kocuk also important new additions will be added during the training camp. The friendly match between RB Leipzig and Galatasaray takes place at the Tivoli Stadium in Innsbruck and can be followed live from 17:00 clock on the Youtube channel of the Bulls.
RB Leipzig:
The Leipzig have certainly imagined the start of the season preparation otherwise. The friendly against FC Zurich saw a bitter 1: 4 defeat. In the stressful training of the Leipzig was the result anyway second-rate. After the home game against the Swiss RB Leipzig has traveled to the training camp to Seefeld, where currently also the test opponents Galatasaray is. Under the new coach Nagelsmann is expected by the Leipzigers this season a lot, which is why many looks are also directed to the preparation of the bulls. With the commitment of the 21-year-old Frenchman Christopher Nkunku RB Leipzig could land a coup on the transfer market.
The goals of the Bulls from Leipzig have been set high for the upcoming season. With Julian Nagelsmann wants RB Leipzig the championship in the Bundesliga and thus the FC Bayern thrust from the throne. Due to the offensive attitude of previous coach Rangnick, it will only be a matter of time before the team has adapted to Nagelsmann’s equally offensive playing system. The new RB coach does not want to spend more than five days in the training camp. The preparation in foreign countries would not be so optimistic, which is why Nagelsmann will also make the preparations for the new season as far as possible at home.
The test match defeat against FC Zurich takes the coach of the cops. It should definitely improve in the duel against the Turkish record champions. In the latest test Nagelsmann put on many defensive players in his own defense. Whether Martel, Krauss and Orban will start in the friendly against Galatasaray remains to be seen. Timo Werner, who is currently courted by FC Bayern, did not look good and was substituted at the beginning of the second half. How the bulls will present themselves in the second test match and whether at RB Leipzig against Galatasaray a prognosis on the Nagelsmann team is true, is not certain, but quite likely. At RB Leipzig – Galatasaray the betting odds will probably not stay until the kick-off at the current level.
Galatasaray:
For the Turkish record champions in the Austrian training camp is the first test game. For the “lions” from Istanbul, the competitive season starts with the Super Cup against Akhisarspor in the first week of August earlier than the rest of the competition. Galatasaray will have to make do without Copa-America entrant Fernando Muslera and Africa Cup players Younes Belhanda, Mbaye Diagne and Sofiane Feghouli for the time being. At the showdown against the Bulls from Leipzig it is for Galatasaray also to a certain extent a trial at Champions League level.
In addition to the test against RB Leipzig is also the preparation game against FC Augsburg in the coming week, in which possibly the missing top performers will join. The “Lions” are still in the transfer carousel and want to increase the squad. The rumor mill is bubbling, but the “lions” have made no really big transfers for the Champions League except Ryan Babel and Jean Michael Seri. Especially in the storm, a transfer is expected after failed negotiations with Rize goalgetter Muriqi.
With the departures of Gümüs, Fernando, Celik and Derdiyok was created in terms of content some space. Mbaye Diagne, who has not yet participated in the preparation due to the African Cup with Senegal, should also leave the team. Despite his strong goal last year, the criticism of the Senegalese striker was great. Diagne should probably have been courted by a club from Saudi Arabia and still change in this transfer window. In the test match against RB Leipzig Fatih Terim will have to forget the restructuring in the squad for the time being and take the endurance test with his available players.
