This match holds a big sway to the title race, with the two teams tied on 66 points, with Galatasaray on top due to a superior goal difference. Basaksehir have been on top of the log for most of the season and should have wrapped up the race by now, but a slump towards the end of the campaign sees them in the danger of missing out, with just two matches remaining. Galatasaray have the right momentum, and their win over Akhisarspor in the Cup final boosts their confidence even more. They are unbeaten in 13 matches now and are unbeaten in the last seven matches at home, with five clean sheets therein while they have failed to score in just one match. In five of their last seven matches at home, Galatasaray have scored two goals or more. The same can’t be said of Basaksehir; they have one win in their last five matches and away from home, they have not won in the last three, picking a loss and two draws. The only advantage they will have is that they have had an extensive rest, unlike Galatasaray, who had a midweek game. In the last six meetings, Basaksehir have four wins over Galatasaray but of the four, only one win has come at Galatasaray’s backyard. Seven of the last 10 meetings between the two sides have yielded over 2.5 goals and head to head, in 22 meetings, Galatasaray have 10 wins and Basaksehir have seven.
