Alanyaspor will host Galatasaray at the Gain Park Stadium on Friday in another round of the 2025-26 Turkish Super Lig campaign. The home side have enjoyed an encouraging start to their campaign, picking up where they left off last season and sit eighth in the table with nine points from six matches.
They played out a 1-1 draw away at Basaksehir last time out, finding themselves a goal down at the break before 19-year-old Uchenna Ogundu levelled things up early in the second half.
Galatasaray, meanwhile, have enjoyed a perfect start to their season and are going full steam ahead in pursuit of a fourth consecutive Super Lig title. They picked up a 3-1 home win over Konyaspor on Monday with Yunus Akgun, Mauro Icardi and Lucas Torreira all getting on the scoresheet before their opponents netted a late consolation goal.
The visitors sit comfortably atop the league table with 18 points from an obtainable 18 and will be targeting another victory to build momentum for their Champions League clash against Premier League champions Liverpool next week.
