Galatasaray hosts Sivasspor in round 8 of Turkish Super Lig. The match will be played on Friday, October 18th at Türk Telekom Stadium (Istanbul)
I have recently read an interesting fact that Galatasaray has a streak of 37 matches without defeats in the Turkish championship. Perhaps it is the only positive moment for Galatasaray in the upcoming game because the things of the Yellow-reds are very bad. Multiple champions are in 10th place in the standings, with a goal difference of 6-6. The rate for such a selection of players is very bad. In my opinion, the reason lies in the unpreparedness of the team for games on two fronts. Secondly, the attack of Galatasaray is far from ideal, and the return of Falcao seems to turn into a failure. In the last 7 matches, Galatasaray scored 6 goals and played 4 draws. Yes, not everything is lost for the Yellow-reds because several victories in a row will bring them back to the top, but it seems that the team is in some confusion so far.

This is what Sivasspor should use. To the surprise of many, Sivasspor ranks second in the standings and has 12 points in the asset. The team is in the top 5 of the League in terms of goals scored (12-7). The main feature of this result is the game in attack. The Yatabare-Fernando-Yandas attacking trio has already scored three goals each, and it is one of the most promising lines of attack in the Turkish championship.
In my opinion, a break for international matches will be beneficial for both teams. As for Galatasaray, this time was simply necessary, and thanks to rethinking its results, we can see another team. However, Sivasspor’ players are not whipping boys this year. I think that Sivasspor will not give up its attacking football, even in the match with the “giant” of Turkish football because this football brings Sivasspor the result. In general, I expect to see a wide-open game in this match because one (Galatasaray) needs a victory as air, while the other (Sivasspor) has a good attacking line.
Prediction for the match: Sivasspor to score over 0.5 goals
