They struggled in the first round at home against Hatayspor, pulling a big comeback in the last ten minutes to win the match 2-1 with Mauro Icardi and Michy Batshuayi on target.

Cimbom then earned two victories on the road, starting with a 2-1 win at Konyaspor, followed by a commanding 5-1 victory against Adana Demirspor, Karem Akturkoglu and Bar Alper Yilmaz appearing on scoresheet on both occasions.

Okan Buruk’s side did suffer a massive blow in the UEFA Champions League playoffs, losing to Young Boys 4-2 on aggregate, so they will play in the Europa League group stages.

Top scorer from the last season Mauro Icardi is injured, Michy Batshuayi expected to be in the starting line up.

New arrival from Napoli, Victor Osimhen is expected to start on the bench due to lack of fitness.

The Black Sea Sparrowhawks then earned a 2-1 win on the road against Adana Demirspor, Husniddin Aliqulov and Ali Sowe finding the net.

Their two most recent appearances were bad though, suffering a heavy 5-0 home loss to Fenerbahce, followed by another 1-0 defeat to Kasimpasa in front of their crowd.

Reserve player Benhur Keser is injured.

Ivo Grbic could make his debut for Rizespor, joining them recently from Sheffield United.

Verdict

Galatasaray v Rizespor

Galatasaray’s record in the Super Lig is quite impressive, winning 21 of their last 22 matches. I will back them to keep winning but also to concede at least one goal. With Icardi injured, Michy Batshuayi is expected to score.
