Team News

Konyaspor
Galatasaray
  • Konrad Michalak is sidelined with an injury. Robert Muric is expected to deputise.
  • Uche Ikpeazu, who wasn't expected to start against Galatasaray, is still undergoing treatment for a minor injury.
  • Mame Diouf has served his suspension and will return to the starting lineup.
  • Dries Mertens is sidelined with an injury and is not expected to return to the starting lineup before April.
  • Fredrik Midtsjo, who wasn't expected to start here, is also sidelined with an injury.
  • Kaan Ayhan is likely to start, as Victor Nelsson is suspended.
  • Juan Mata had to be subbed off with an injury against Kasimpasa last time out. He will be monitored, but he wasn't expected to start here anyway.

Prediction

  • Konyaspor won their first point under Stanojevic in a goalless draw with Giresunspor last time out. They created quite a few chances, but were unable to beat Kaplan in goal. Moreno looks like a great addition to the squad and Diouf's return from suspension will further strengthen their attack. Despite the decent performance against Giresunspor, they will likely struggle against high-flyers Galatasaray.
  • Galatasaray managed to beat Kasimpasa 1-0 last time out, increasing their winning streak to 14 games. They broke the record for most consecutive Super Lig wins with this victory and moved one more step closer to the title. Gala weren't at their best in the game and felt Mertens' absence, but Zaniolo showed why he was more than worth the 15 million Euros spent on him. This attacking lineup will create a plethora of chances against Konya and are very likely to secure another three points in this match.
