ISTANBUL – Galatasaray, riding high on a perfect start to the Turkish Super Lig season, travel to the Ataturk Olympic Stadium on Saturday to face Eyupspor. The reigning champions have stormed out of the gate, winning all four of their opening matches, netting a league-leading 13 goals while conceding only once.

Galatasaray is looking to secure their fourth consecutive Super Lig title, and their early performances suggest they could be even more formidable this year. Victories against Gaziantep, Fatih Karagumruk, Kayserispor, and Caykur Rizespor have showcased their potent attack.

Despite early-season injury concerns, including key forward Victor Osimhen, Galatasaray’s goal-scoring prowess has remained intact. However, Osimhen picked up an ankle ligament injury during the international break. He is expected to miss two league games and the Champion League matches. Mauro Icardi is set to take the lead. New goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir is expected to make his debut.

Eyupspor, under new coach Selcuk Sahin, have had a mixed start to the season. After two opening defeats, they have shown signs of improvement with a win against Alanyaspor and a draw with Istanbul Basaksehir. While their only victory came at home, their recent home form suggests a tough challenge against the high-flying Galatasaray.

The last time these two teams met, Eyupspor managed a surprising 2-2 draw, but Galatasaray will be aiming for a more decisive victory this time around.

**Predicted Lineups:**

* **Eyupspor (3-4-2-1):** Marcos; Yalcin, Claro, Mujakic; Calegari, Demirbay, Kayan, Gurler; Sesler, Dragus; Bozok
* **Galatasaray (4-2-3-1):** Cakir; Sallai, Sanchez, Bardakci, Jakobs; Torreira, Sara; Sane, Akgun, Elmali; Icardi

Despite Osimhen’s absence, Galatasaray’s attacking depth and quality are expected to be too much for Eyupspor to handle.
