The race for the title and European spots is starting to heat up in the Super Lig, and this Sunday could prove to be crucial as Trabzonspor travel to the NEF Stadyumu to take on Galatasaray in an eagerly anticipated top-half battle. The hosts are in pole position in the league, with 51 points in 21 matches, six clear of their closest challengers, Fenerbahce, and eleven clear of the rest. Their incredible recent form has seen them sure up their lead, as they find themselves on a 12-match unbeaten run, including 11 wins and one draw. Their home record has been equally impressive, losing just once at the NEF Stadyumu this term in 10 matches, along with eight wins and a draw. This has typically been a close encounter over the years, as seen in the reverse fixture, which ended in a stalemate, but the hosts are in a great rhythm and will fancy themselves to take the maximum in this one.

Trabzonspor has also been pretty good this season and has got themselves in contention for a European Cup spot thanks to their recent form. The visitors are in sixth place in the league, with 38 points in 21 matches, level with Adana Demirspor and just two points behind Istanbul Basaksahir, who currently hold the second and final Europa League place. After defeating Antalyaspor 2-0 in their last match, Trabzonspor has recorded four wins and two draws in their last six matches. However, on the road, they have only managed three wins all season, along with two draws and five losses in ten matches. Trabzonspor comes into this match on a three-match losing streak away from home and will find it difficult to snap up that record in this one.
