Super Lig leaders Galatasaray will be aiming to extend their winning run to six matches when they host Ankaragucu on Wednesday. The visitors, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from suffering defeat in their last match. After enduring their lowest ever finish in the Super Lig by ending last campaign in 13th position, few could have foreseen Galatasaray’s strong early season form coming this time around.
However, after winning the title with Istanbul Basaksehir in the 2019-20 season, Okan Buruk has made himself an instant hero at their city rivals in a matter of months after being appointed during the summer. Five successive victories have moved Cimbom one point clear of Fenerbahce at the top of the division ahead of the midweek’s round of fixtures, with Baris Yilmaz’s injury-time strike providing them with a crucial win away to Sivasspor last Thursday.
As such, Buruk will expect nothing short of seeing his side claim all three points against Ankaragucu in midweek, especially with their arch rivals having an opportunity to overtake them 24 hours prior.
