What happened in Turkish football today?? 11/05/2024



Galatasaray could win title if it beats Fatih Karagumruk and results go in their way 

Galatasaray could win its 24th title if it manages to beat Fatih Karagumruk at Ataturk Olympic Stadium and Fenerbahce doesnt consider to win Kayserispor at the game where Galatasaray would come out as strong favourite. 

Among being in the leadership at the standings with 4 point over Fenerbahce, Galatasaray is also providing strong and dominant performance in recent weeks with confident scoreline regardless who are opponents as Galatasaray in recent years is capable at providing top level performance which is needed in the end of the season. Fatih Karagumruk on their part would be aiming to get point and hence could provide performance with a defensive as it aims to stay at the league. In all fairness, win for Galatasaray would be even be even perfect outcome but Fatih Karagumruk would treat game in more realistic manner as it seems to be more realistic and also with such result and getting some points in other 2 games would be enough. With Galatasaray among getting result which it seeks for would also aim to find an early goal to provide pressure to Fenerbahce which would play in parallel. 

Galatasaray hence would be coming out as strong favourites and would perform accordingly as it got real chance to win title in the end of the night.

Fenerbahce would aim to keep its title chances alive against Kayserispor

Fenerbahce has no other choice apart to win Kayserispor at home ground to keep their chances alive and even surprising loss from Galatasaray to Fatih Karagumruk could lead team to chances for title to its own hand.

Following draw against Konyaspor in last week, it has become visible that Fenerbahce has been mentally affected with Galatasaray beating Sivasspor in last week with 6:1 and hence it would be reasonable to state that result against Fatih Karagumruk would have positive impact and in fact if Karagumruk would go suddently ahead at scoreline could provide incredible confidence and motivation for Fenerbahce. If Galatasaray goes ahead it would have negative impact. It would be best for Fenerbahce to forget about Galatasaray game and play for win but its easier said then done. One of the advantage for Fenerbahce that Kayserispor did secure more or less its spot at Super League and hence will not play at game which it needs points urgently.

Fenerbahce would be expected to win game but result which would come during Galatasaray game would naturally have impact to this game without doubt.

Trabzonspor expects to get confident win against relegated Istanbulspor

Trabzonspor would be aiming to secure its 3rd spot as it would be playing against Istanbulspor which arleady been relegated.

With having 3 points advantage over Basaksehirspor with 3 weeks to go until end of the season and also playing with them, it would be playing against Istanbulspor which arleady has been relegated and quite naturally morale has been down for long time now. Therefore, Trabzonspor would be coming out as strong favourite and would be aiming to get confident win which would provide needed morale for last 2 weeks at the league.

Trabzonspor are being clear favourites and shouldnt get much issues against their opponents.
