Galatasaray play host to Gaziantep FK at the NEF Stadyumu on Monday in round five of the Turkish Super Lig.
The visitors head into the game on a run of three consecutive league visitors and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.
Galatasaray were denied their first set of consecutive league wins this season as they were held to a goalless draw by Trabzonspor.
They have now returned to their home turf, where they will be seeking their first win of the season following a 1-0 defeat against Giresunspor on August 13.
With seven points from four games, Galatasaray are currently eighth in the Super Lig table, level on points with rivals Fenerbahce.
Meanwhile, Gaziantep maintained their superb start to the season as they claimed a comfortable 5-2 win over Antalyaspor last time out.
They have now won their last three games, scoring eight goals and conceding three since a 1-1 draw at Sivasspor in their league opener on August 6.
Gaziantep, who are third in the table, will be eyeing a fourth win on the bounce for the first time since January, when they also picked up four straight victories.
