Kayserispor vs Galatasaray Prediction and Betting Tips

Kayserispor will host Galatasaray at the Kadir Has Stadium on Sunday in the third round of the 2025-26 Turkish Super Lig campaign. Both sides will be looking to get a result and keep team spirits high early in the league season.

Anadolu Yıldızı shared the points in a 1-1 draw with Istanbul Basaksehir when the sides met last weekend after seeing their season opener against Besiktas get postponed the prior week. The hosts finished the last season only three places above the drop zone and will be looking to put together a much better performance this season, but will be up against the league's best side this weekend.

Galatasaray have had a perfect start to the league campaign, picking up 3-0 wins over 10-man Gaziantep and, more recently, Karagümrük, and will be confident to continue in the same form this season.

The visitors, who are yet to lose a game across all competitions since March, are aiming to win the league title for a fourth consecutive season and will be keen to avoid dropping points this early in the season.
