Galatasaray can take a big step towards the title - Analysis & Betting Tips

Galatasaray is still the measure of all things in the Turkish Süper Lig, which is why we see the league leaders as slight favorites in our Galatasaray - Fenerbahce betting tip. The difference between the two Monday opponents is 6 points ahead of this crucial game in the title race. A defeat would reduce Galatasaray's lead to three points, while a full victory would probably ensure a preliminary decision in the battle for the championship trophy. Recent results also lead us to believe that the latter could happen on Monday. Because: Galatasaray are still unbeaten in the league, which is a simply impressive fact after 24 games, which we certainly didn't want to leave unmentioned in our Gala - Fenerbahce betting tip. Most recently, the leaders scored fully against Rizespor, celebrating a 2:1 victory, before which they celebrated a convincing 3:0 win against Demirspor. Against Gaziantep, in turn, it was enough for a narrow 1:0. Galatasaray's main trump card at the moment is its defense. They have won their last four league games, three times without conceding a goal. However, the league leaders have been somewhat less stable at home than away this season. 14 goals conceded in 12 home matches prove this, especially in contrast to 9 goals conceded in 11 away matches. However, it must also be emphasized that "Gala" have been extremely convincing offensively, even if they have only managed one goal in 2 of their last 4 games.

Before this Galatasaray - Fenerbahce betting tip, the home side had scored no fewer than 59 goals in 23 games. In home games, the multiple champions have already celebrated 10 wins on 12 occasions. Accordingly, "Gala" is currently the strongest home team in the Turkish top flight. In terms of betting tips, we believe there are several options that seem realistic. On the one hand, a home win for Galatasaray (betting tip 1), and on the other an under bet, which would cover the slightly weaker offensive performances of the league leaders recently. At the same time, however, we also believe that both teams are capable of scoring a goal or two. All in all, we see the home team as slight favorites in this duel. Although the upcoming opponents have also been in extremely good form recently and have been even more successful than "Gala" in this respect. You can read more about this in Part II of our betting tip analysis for this top match.

Fenerbahce want to close the gap - Prediction & expert tips

Fenerbahce have one of the few chances this coming Monday to make up ground on Galatasaray, who are (still) the league leaders and Monday's opponents. In our Galatasaray - Fenerbahce betting tip, we look at the current form of the visitors. "Fener" have clearly established themselves as the strongest team in the Süper Liga this season and will be looking to close the gap to first place to 3 points on Monday. A look at the recent results of star coach José Mourinho's team shows that this can be achieved. They celebrated a 3:1 win against Kasimpasa and also came out on top against Alanyaspor with a 2:0 victory. Rizespor were defeated 3:2 a week earlier. This result is also an indicator of how close the game could be on Monday according to our Gala - Fener analysis. Galatasaray also won against Rizespor with a goal difference. In total, Fenerbahce have scored a maximum of 7 points in their last 7 league games. It is therefore quite possible that win number 8 will follow against the leaders. Due to the closeness of the duel, we also take a look at the form table, i.e. the statistics of the last 5 rounds, in our betting tip analysis. This even shows Fenerbahce as slight favorites, as the visitors have scored two more points than their city rivals. The fact that they are playing away from home next Monday does not speak against Mourinho's charges either. They have 10 wins and just one defeat in 11 games, making them the second-best home team in the league, with only Gala doing better.

Now let's take a look at the visitors' personnel situation ahead of this Galatasaray - Fenerbahce betting tip. It has to be said that coach Mourinho is facing some problems. No fewer than 10 squad players are missing, some of them of course "only" due to ineligibility. However, a total of 8 players in the squad are injured or suffering from injuries. This is one of the few reasons why we have slight doubts about another full Fenerbahce success. On the positive side: Fener won their last away clash with Galatasaray by a narrow 1-0 margin, but it was one of only 3 wins in the last 10 meetings. One thing is also clear: the pressure of having to win is clearly on the visiting team, a defeat would simply be fatal in the battle for the championship and would probably already be tantamount to a preliminary decision. It remains to be seen how well "Fener" can handle this pressure - also due to the double burden.

Which betting tip do we recommend for this derby?

In our opinion, it will be a game on a knife-edge, as there are factors that speak in favor of Galatasaray and also those that see Fenerbahce at an advantage. In the end, we would therefore advise against a win bet and recommend the following strategies instead: Both teams to score - yes or a betting tip on less than 2.5 goals.
