Galatasaray vs Hatayspor Prediction & Betting Tips (9 August)

By winning the title last year, Galatasaray won its 24th crown in Turkey and validates a place in the play-offs of the next Champions League where a double clash against Young Boys is scheduled for August 21 and 27. For now, the champion has played the Turkish Super Cup against the winner of the Cup in 2024 last week, Besiktas, a meeting that Galatasaray must quickly forget 5-0 defeat in the Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul. The champion remained on a success against Lecce in prepa 2-1 and a setback against Parma 0-2. Opposite, Hatayspor thinks about its maintenance every year before looking higher.

Indeed, the Southern Star stays close to the daisies every year. In a SuperLig with 4 descents last year, Hatayspor was very hot with this 15th place, only 1 point from the 1st relegation MKE. This first match is very important for the visitors and could create a positive dynamic in the event of an exploit.

The Galatasaray squad is terrifying for a championship such as the SuperLig. Behind we find Davinson Sanchez, alongside the new element E.Jelert (Copenhagen, right side, 9,000,000) in midfield the Brazilian nugget G.Sara (18,000,000) ex-Norwich player has come to strengthen the group . Another huge reinforcement, that of the Moroccan H.Zyech (free, Chelsea) and M.Batsuyahi (free).

Zaniolo joins A.Bergamo on the starting side. Also, no injuries are noted. In this very modest squad, behind, Hatayspor can count on the presence of F.Ghoulam (ex-Naples), for the rest it is more or less unknown to the general public, except perhaps Lamine Diack (ex-Nantes FC) . His best player last year Dele-Bashiru joined Lazio, recruited from free Krasnodar, Jonathan Okorongwo should not take long to stand out offensively.
