Galatasaray host Juventus in the first leg of the Champions League playoff on Tuesday night, as they look to make it five wins in a row in all competitions.
In stark contrast to the Turkish side's excellent form, Juve's last gasp 3-2 defeat to Inter Milan on Saturday means that the Italian giants have now gone three matches without a victory.
That poor run of results means that I Bianconeri are a whopping 15 points off the pace in Serie A and effectively out of the title race.
Galatasaray's whopping 5-1 victory over Eyupspor on Friday night kept Okan Buruk's men three points clear at the top of the Turkish Süper Lig.
In the league phase of the Champions League, Juventus finished three points and seven places ahead of Galatasaray.

Our Galatasaray vs Juventus Prediction
Juve are strong favorites to claim a vital first leg victory, but the formbook suggests that Galatasaray have an excellent chance of picking up at least a draw.
The Turkish side have been in imperious form over the last month, putting together a string of impressive victories as they look to extend their lead at the top of the Süper Lig table.
Given that form, plus Juve's poor recent results, we really like the odds of 2.40 (draw no bet) on the home side grabbing a first leg advantage.
Our prediction for Galatasaray vs Juventus is: Galatasaray to win (Draw no bet).
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
