Galatasaray vs Fenerbahce Prediction and Betting Tips | April 7th 2024

Galatasaray square off against arch-rivals Fenerbahce in the 50th edition of the Turkish Super Cup on Sunday.

Gala's Turkish Super Lig triumph last season earned them the right to contest the Super Cup while Fener are here as Turkish Cup champions.

The Yellow Canaries are coming into the game on the back of a 4-2 home win over Adana Demispor in league action. First-half goals from Alexander Djiku and Mario Balotelli ensured that the two sides went into the break level. Edin Dzeko, Dusan Tadic and Serdar Dursun added second-half goals for Fener while Yusuf Barasi scored a second for Demirspor.

Galatasaray, meanwhile, saw off Hatayspor with a narrow 1-0 home win. Mauro Icardi's 13th-minute strike was the difference between the two sides and helped the Lions maintain their two-point advantage at the summit of the standings.

Galatasaray vs Fenerbahce Prediction

One of the fiercest rivalries in world football will take centre stage this weekend with silverware on offer for Turkey's biggest rivals. This game was initially scheduled to be played in December 2023 but disagreements between the clubs and the football authorities saw it postponed.

Galatasaray are the more in-form side and also hold the advantage in a gripping title race. However, Fenerbahce know that a win here could swing the pendulum in their favor. İsmail Kartal's side also have an important European tie coming up.

This fixture tends to be feisty and tempers often flare. We are backing the game to end in a goalless stalemate and Galatasaray to claim a narrow win after extra time.

Prediction: Galatasaray 0-0 Fenerbahce (Galatasaray to win after extra time)
