Command Analysis
Konyaspor
TurkeyCurrent form
Konyaspor narrowly escaped relegation from the Super League last season, but five points from the last four rounds allowed the team to overtake Ankaragucu and stay in the league.
Ali Kamdali's protégés played their pre-season friendlies at a good pace, with two wins, two draws and just one defeat.
In the first round of the new season, the "eagles" scored a sensational victory over "Kasımpaşa". Five goals were scored in that match. The hosts of the upcoming match were losing with a score of 1:2 until the 81st minute, but made a great comeback and at the end of the match the score on the scoreboard was in their favor.
Injuries and disqualifications
Josip Kalusic will not take part in the match due to a broken tibia
Interesting trends for betting
In two of their last three home wins, Konyaspor have scored three times in a match
Konyaspor have scored against their upcoming opponent in four of their last five head-to-head encounters
Estimated composition
Slovik - Yazgili, Damzhanovich, Demirbag, Guilherme - Akyol, Jevtovic - Ndao, Wallace, Erdogan - Nayir
Galatasaray
TurkeyCurrent form
Who would have thought that Galatasaray would start the new season so terribly? Let us recall that Okan Buruk's protégé suffered a crushing defeat to Besiktas (0:5) in the Turkish Super Cup match, although before the start of the match the current champion of the country was considered a small, but still favorite.
In the national championship we managed to perform better. We managed to beat the modest Hatayspor (2:1) on our home field. I really want to hope that the “lions” simply did not get into their best shape, because you won’t get far with such a game, if you barely win on your home field against a clear outsider, losing in the score until the 80th minute.
Injuries and disqualifications
Davinson Sanchez will be sidelined with a thigh strain.
Interesting trends for betting
In their last two encounters with Konyaspor, Galatasaray scored three times each
Galatasaray have conceded goals in 11 consecutive matches
Estimated composition
Muslera - Kon, Bardakci, Sanchez, Dubois - Torreira, Demirbey - Yilmaz, Mertens, Ziyech - Icardi

1.80Tip and bets
Galatasaray are far from their ideal form and Konyaspor will certainly want to take advantage of this. The hosts of the upcoming game managed to score against their opponents at the end of last season, in May, when the Lions played superbly. Based on this, we can conclude that they will be able to score this time too.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.68

There is a busy season ahead, so Galatasaray needs to come to their senses and start playing the way they were expected to play a couple of weeks ago. Let's bet that the visitors have worked on their mistakes and will be able to win their first away victory in the national championship.
Our prediction is Galatasaray's victory with odds of 1.73
Bet on corners
Based on the teams' matches in the first round, we conclude that this match will not be boring. The opponents will be able to break many over-totals, including the number of corner flag serves.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.69
