The Turkish Super Lig returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Galatasaray and Ankaragucu lock horns at RAMS Park on Saturday.
Okan Buruk’s men head into the weekend unbeaten in each of their last 13 matches across all competitions and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.
Galatasaray maintained their fine run of results as they scrapped to a 1-0 victory over a dogged Istanbulspor side on Tuesday.
Buruk’s men have now won all but one of their last nine matches across all competitions, with a 2-2 draw against Copenhagen in their Champions League Group A opener on September 20 being the exception.
Trending
With 16 points from six matches, Galatasaray are currently second in the Super Lig standings, two points behind first-placed Fenerbahce.
Elsewhere, Ankaragucu were denied successive wins for the first time this season as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Konyaspor last Sunday.
Prior to that, Tolunay Kafkas’ men picked up their first win of the season as they beat Sivasspor 3-1 on September 18 to end their four-game winless run.
With six points from a possible 18, Ankaragucu are currently 12th in the Super Lig table but could potentially rise level with seventh-placed Trabzonspor with all three points this weekend.
