The first half ended with Galatasaray leading 1-0. It was a 45 minutes in which both teams lacked a final touch. Galatasaray took the lead with Zaha's goal from outside the penalty area, but other than that, both sides had some good goal chances but couldn't able to score. If the match continues like that, Kasımpaşa catches draw at best, but other than that, unfortunately, the possibility of a win is almost non-existent.

Depends on the money I suppose? Teams in Turkey do not really make all that much money from rewards at the league or cup or anything, Galatasaray made some money thanks to UCL this season but usually teams do not make all that much money. If Abdulkerim could be sold for a good amount of money then it would be smart to sell him.

Look at the situation with Nellson, first a season with europa success and losing to Barcelona, and then becoming champions, and up until Sanchez came along, they were basically using Nellson all that period and that made him worth something, he is young too, so they thought they  could sell him for at least 15-20 million to some big club, but they failed and not he is a bench player, barely worth 5-10 range. So they should sell Abdulkerim before it's too late as well.

Galatasaray at 1.05 odds? I think is so fucking low, dont get me wrong, i know Galatasaray is the bigger one and the favorite by far, but 1.05? Real Madrid doesnt have that odds in some matches.... And Ksimpasa its currently in the 5 position....

Galatasaray-Kasımpaşa game will be an enjoyable game.
My favorite is Galatasaray as always, but Kasımpaşa is also good.
I'm expecting some good goals from Icardi tonight. I hope we continue undefeated.

I think we can both agree that the championship race is now between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray First of all, let me explain why I think the 5-0 Pendik game will create pressure. Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are both competing in Turkey and in Europe and we have seen that Fenerbahce's team depth has a better effect on the outcome of the game than Galatasaray's both in Europe and in the league. Last week Fenerbahce, who lost the leadership to Galatasaray for 1 day because of the day difference, scored 5 goals and showed clearly that they will not fall behind in the competition.

This week Fenerbahce will play against Trabzonspor at their home. Whether Trabzonspor is in the race or not, they have always played a challenging game against Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. However, Trabzonspor is a bit weak in terms of scoring goal this year and I think Fenerbahçe will not lose at home. Galatasaray players will play expecting Fenerbahçe to lose points against Trabzon. At this point, I think there will be simple passing mistakes and mistakes like missing a man at the backside, because I can say that I have seen a little bit of low condition in the last games.

I will place my bets on the possibility that they can make good use of these mistakes. But as you said, these will be risky bets

I don't think the 5:0 win of Fenerbahce against Pendikspor last weekend is gonna put any kind of pressure on Galatasaray when they host Kisimpasa later tonight and that's because of the fact that Fenerbahce's win took place in the same match week 10 that Galatasaray also got all three points from their own game.
I think Galatasaray are going to beat Kisimpasa later tonight and that's because of the current performance abd form of the Turkish champions. Betting on Kisimpasa to get a draw or win in that game I think will be too risky even when it isn't impossible

The Turkish Super League kicks off this week with Galatasaray hosting Kasımpaşa at home. It is clear from the odds that Galatasaray is the favorite of the match.  However, today I will be placing small bets on a draw and a Kasimpasa win. Just as Galatasaray put pressure on Fenerbahce last week, a 5-0 Pendik win will inevitably put pressure on Galatasaray today.


As of today, Galatasaray's opponent Kasımpaşa is in 5th place with 18 points. Also, their top scorer Aytaç Kara is a player who played for Galatasaray. And I think he will play a good game against Galatasaray today.

If Kasımpaşa scores between the 30th and 45th minutes and closes the first half like this, they will be halfway there. Earlier in the second half, Galatasaray will put the pressure on and at that moment they need to score 2nd with a counterattack. Otherwise they will draw at best and lose the match at worst.

It would be bad if we sell Abdülkerim because we need good Turkish players.
Our two best Turkish players are Abdülkerim Bardakçı and Kerem Aktürkoğlu, it would be ridiculous to sell them if we can't find good players to replace them.
As you know, there is a foreign rule in our league and a total of 3 players must be Turkish. (8+3)

I really don't know what Trabzonspor is up to.   They parted ways with Abdullah Avci like seven months ago and brought Bjelica to the job. However he only lasted this long and now they have brought Abdullah Avci back to the manager position. If you were thinking about continuing with him again then why did you part ways with him in the first place?

Anyways I think Trabzonspor are still crying for help now. I didn't like their first 2 matches with Abdullah Avci so far. I don't think they can be a big problem for Fenerbahce in this condition.

Fenerbahçe has built its best team in recent years. So is Galatasaray. Currently, the league is witnessing a fight between two teams. Trabzonspor is one of the teams watching from behind in this fight. They could not get any benefit from the players transferred under Bjelica's management. Abdullah Avcı will try to change things next summer. He is currently spending his time trying to make the best use of the available staff. Even though they are not the favorites against Fenerbahçe, it is clear that it will be a difficult match.

We haven't seen any surprise results in the cup matches so far. Sivasspor and Gaziantep FK beat their opponents 4-0 and Konyaspor beat their opponent 3-0 to advance to the next round. The last match of the day was Kayserispor against Igdir FK. For 80 minutes we didn't see a goal and we can say that Kayserispor had a hard time in this match. If the match ends like this, it will go to extra time and who will be the winner is already a matter of curiosity.

Abdülkerim is playing very well in the UCL with Galatasaray. He completes matches almost flawlessly, and this situation would attract attention, and it seems it did. Since there is no transfer possibility until the half-time, teams have to wait a little longer and Galatasaray is the team that is satisfied in this situation because there are not many defenders as successful as him in his domestic status. I think he can easily play in mid-level teams in Europe.

Abdülkerim is a very good stopper. But we have three good stoppers in our squad. We can make money by selling one of them. Because one of them will always be a substitute. Last season we formed a very good defensive line with Nelsson and Abdülkerim. This season we transferred Davinson Sanchez. After we transferred Davinson Sanchez, Nelsson was substituted. It won't be bad for us if we sell Abdülkerim. Because we have Nelsson. But we can also sell Nelsson. We have such small problems because our squad quality is better than last season. I think we should be happy with this situation.

Abdulkerim Bardakci is on the transfer radar of European teams.
European teams are in contact with the manager of Abdulkerim Bardakci.
I hope he stays with us because we don't have a stopper who can replace him.
He had mistakes in the first years but now he has improved himself.

I agree with you on this topic but there is nothing to do about that from now on. He must have been really fed up with the situation that he decided to leave early. But it is still not the end of the world for Beşiktaş. They can do this with a new manager as well. The important point now is to elect the best president for themselves. Beşiktaş fans must also be hoping to see ANÇ not being a candidate once again. If you are willing to have a role in the change for Beşiktaş then you should do the right thing.

They will probably sacrifice this season but as long as they start to improve it would still be promising for them for next season.

I didn't enjoy the Beşiktaş-Gaziantep match at all, both teams were soulless.
Beşiktaş is very bad, they need to fix themselves as soon as possible, there is a derby with Fenerbahçe in a few weeks.
Fenerbahçe can beat them with very different scores if Beşiktaş continues like this.

It was really early for Senol Gunes to resign from his job at Besiktas. He must have waited longer. I mean at least until the election for presidency. Maybe he was going to have a much better president who knows how to manage a team well. Let's say Ahmet Nur Cebi was elected again then he would have still decided to resign.

By the way I started to see some news like he won't declare his candidacy for the election. It would be for the benefit of Besiktas honestly. They can't get a full recovery from this situation unless there is a big change.

Beşiktaş had a dominant first half but struggled to find goals in the first half. Besiktas, who had 71 possession in the first half against Gaziantep, found the goals in the second half, even though they dropped off offensively in the second half. At the beginning of the second half, Beşiktaş increased the pressure again and managed to find the goals. In the last minutes, Gaziantep stepped up their attacks but could not find a goal.

Fenerbahçe is playing really well, although we say better things about Galatasaray, Fenerbahçe is the team that looks the most stable and successful this year. I think they will get 3 points against Trabzonspor, I cannot say that I like Trabzon's game. They played very ineffectively against Karagümrük this week, they didn't even have a good shot on goal.
If they play like this against Fenerbahçe, they won't have a chance

Fenerbahce has been the most outstanding team in the Turkish Super Lig as the last season runner ups have successfully won all the 10 league matches they've played this season to remain at the top of the league standings.
They know that second placed Galatasaray are just two points behind them in the league table and any result apart from winning might end their stay at the top of the league. Edin Dzeko scored in that game against Pendikspor to help the away side cruise to victory.
