The final match on Saturday in the Turkish Super Lig will see Istanbul Basaksehir playing host to Galatasaray. The Grey Owls are in 13th place, while the Lions lead the league standings after eight games this season. Let’s get into the match prediction.
While it is still early days, the 2025-26 Super Lig season has been a bit of a nightmare for Basaksehir so far, as they have only managed six points from their first seven games of the new campaign.
The Grey Owls entered the international break following a 1-0 defeat to high-flying Goztepe and are now on a three-match winless run. Their only victory this season was against basement club Fatih Karagumruk.
All three of the hosts' home league games this term have ended in draws, and they are winless in their last seven top-flight matches against their upcoming opponent at this venue (D3 L4).
In complete contrast, Galatasaray have stormed out the blocks this season, still unbeaten after eight games (W7 D1), while having already scored 20 goals, seven more than any other team.
Cimbom’s only dropped points came against Besiktas ahead of the international break, but that followed a stunning 1-0 victory at home over Liverpool in the Champions League four days earlier.
The visitors have won all four away league games this term and scored two or more goals in three of those matches. They have yet to concede a goal on the road in the top flight this season.

Our Istanbul Basaksehir vs Galatasaray Prediction
Istanbul Basaksehir have made a very poor start to this season, having only managed one win to date, and a defeat here could see them end this weekend below the dotted line.
Unfortunately for the hosts, they are set to face the rampant league leaders, who have already smashed in 20 goals in just eight top-flight matches, and have not lost at this venue since 2017 in any competition. Therefore, our Istanbul Basaksehir vs Galatasaray prediction is Galatasaray wins the match.
