Beşiktaş really lost free 3 points there. That red card made things even easier for them but still it ended by 0-0. The known issues are still not solved fully seemingly. By the way Joao Mario is a really useless player. They shouldn't have signed him.

Galatasaray tried really hard against Hatayspor but failed to win at the end. I don't think the penalty given to them was just. Mertens clearly did his best to get the penalty there and he actually inflicted his leg to the opponent defender.

Tomorrow there is an easy match for Fenerbahçe. I don't expect anything from Adana DS. They are in huge debt and I don't see them managing to stay even in the Super League with this terrible performance. Sad

Besiktas should have taken full advantage of the red card, the red card came around 64 minutes so it was enough to get a win, especially when you are playing at home. Samsunspor is a very stubborn side too, they always know how to manage their game, immediately after that red card, they only had one thing in mind which is just to get a point and that exactly what happened.

Well, galatasaray were simply unlucky, they played well, created a lot of chances, scored a few too which was ruled out for offside. They could only get the only goal scored from a penalty, the opposition goalkeeper was simply in a good foam and made some key save that earned them a point.

Fenerbache should take absolute advantage in today’s game, with galatasaray dropping points on Friday, it time to reduce the points between them, then just may be their is still a chance to challenge for league title.

This is the price big teams usually pay for being wasteful. Galatasaray had some good chances to get some goals but they wasted those opportunities. I was going through a sports betting social media group and most gamblers are lamenting because this match has cut their game. It was generally expected that Galastataray would have easily gotten a win. Hatayspor has gotten just ten points in nineteen games and I thought it would have been a cheap win for the league toppers. Nevertheless, that's football, the outcome is sometimes unpredictable.

Betting against smaller clubs that have nothing to lose is usually unpredictable. Galatasary would had easier won Hatayspor another day but they needed a penalty to get a point from this game. The game doesn't have any impact on the league table as Galatasary are still top of the top with very large margin but for the fact that Hatayspor were able to get a draw from galatasary, it'll makes them to not be feared by other clubs and we might begin to see galatasary lose more points as they face other opponents. The game was galatasary own to win but they didn't make any good use of their attacks. They wasted all the chances that they got and weren't clinical.

It's both bad luck and incompetence. A team that is this far behind in scoring goals has no chance of winning the championship. A team cannot miss so many goals.
The team became more effective after Muçi came on. The wings need to be more effective. Rashica is playing like a bee without honey. Mario or Rafa can't play on the wing. Immobile was unlucky. Semih couldn't put the ball in the goal. Samsunspor is a strong opponent but Beşiktaş should have won today. An important 2 points were lost.

Beşiktaş - Samsunspor match was nice and enjoyable, Samsunspor is playing really well and we saw it again tonight.
Samsunspor goalkeeper was very good tonight, he was the most effective name in getting the team 1 point.

Beşiktaş had many opportunities but could not score. I think Semih is a very selfish player, if he continues to play like this he will harm his own career.

Galatasaray lost points against an easy opponent tonight. Hatayspor's goalkeeper was really good tonight.
Galatasaray was not good in the first half but the second half was very good, they had many opportunities but could not score.
Barış Alper was very bad, he could not convert clear positions into goals.
Michy Batshuayi is playing terribly, we need a second striker.
Let's see if Fenerbahçe can take advantage of this opportunity.

According to the statistics, there were 0.56 xG in the first half and 2.97 xG in the second half for Galatasaray. In some matches the players don't show the necessary seriousness. In my opinion, this was one of those matches. If we had played a more serious game in the first half, we could have won this match.

Also, I think we saw something else very important in this match. We didn't have a player on the bench who could change the game. If we don't make good use of the winter transfer window, I think there will always be a possibility that we will continue to lose points like this. That's why I can't be angry with Okan Buruk. There wasn't much he could do either.

galatasaray shared a post about the recent 1-1 draw:

https://x.com/GalatasaraySK/status/1880599522025279703

yes, there might have been some referee issues—turkey is unfortunately a weak league in this regard. but if you're the league leader and end up with a draw against the bottom-placed team, and you can only score 1 goal from 3.52 xG, there are other problems at hand.

galatasaray urgently needs to address its shortcomings; otherwise, things will get even tougher in europe.

Although we often see match results like that, it will still leave an uncomfortable feeling with the loss of the bet.

Yesterday was the worst performance of Galatasaray since I knew the team. Not only did they play terrible football yesterday, they made a lot of gamblers lose their hard-earned money betting on them to either win or play at least three goals and they failed to deliver none of both options. This got to show that Galatasaray have become unreliable unlike before that you will bet them and go to bet and they will deliver. I missed taking a cashout of over 70% of my target win yesterday because I also felt they would win that match bit they failed me and made me lost some money as well. I don't know how confident I would be playing them, going forward.

Galatasaray had to settle for a draw against a team in the relegation zone, Hatayspor.
The result was not good for Galatasaray who dominated the match and had many chances. They even fell behind first and were finally able to equalize thanks to Osimhen's goal from the penalty spot.
Galatasaray is still strong at the top of the standings, but today's result was not good.

in tonight's 7 pm match, beşiktaş will host samsunspor. currently, beşiktaş is in 6th place in the league, while samsunspor sits in 3rd.

in their last encounter, which was in the first week of the league, beşiktaş defeated samsunspor 2-0 away from home.

betting odds have favored beşiktaş, giving samsunspor a low chance of winning. i also think that beşiktaş will somehow secure a victory.

what do you think?

Does it mean that samsunspor has much good player than besiktas or being on the 3rd position was a chance? Because besiktas has been rated 3rd best club before on this league but how come they have left the 3rd to the 6?, though besiktas has won them earlier before this time but following my instinct samsunspor will have the day and win or draw is all win for them because they have 6 point against besiktas. However Istanbul Basaksehir today started very early than when others will start and they took a penalty now if not they were 0:0 but now 1:0 in favor of Istanbul Basaksehir.

my general thoughts on the match are that, even though beşiktaş is going through a rough patch at home, they won’t easily give up the game. samsunspor, on the other hand, can be considered this season’s standout team after galatasaray and fenerbahçe. it’s clear that both sides are strong, and i think it will be a match with the intensity of a derby.

in their last encounter, which was in the first week of the league, beşiktaş defeated samsunspor 2-0 away from home.

however, a lot has changed for both teams since then. beşiktaş, which was in form at the start of the season, has gradually lost its impact, and now samsunspor looks stronger going into this match.

betting odds have favored beşiktaş, giving samsunspor a low chance of winning. i also think that beşiktaş will somehow secure a victory.

We see matches like this every season, where a title challenging team will drop points to a team who is battling for relegation. Maybe, it a good thing that galatasaray drop this points, so they don’t get carried away by their numbers of winnings in the league so far. It’s a big draw and even if it seems impossible for fenerbache to win the league these are the kind of opportunities they are waiting for them capitalize on them. If they can get their winning then it will be 6 point clear.

Galatasaray played well and I will say they deserved more, a couple of goals were ruled out for offside, and they missed a lot of chances too. Hatayspor goalkeeper had a good game as he made a lot of saves, he almost saved the penalty too. Galatasaray need a bounce back from their next match.

Still getting 1 points today, it is very disappointing because they should have win today and with this draw it gives an advantage to Fenerbahce, Galatasaray game is actually not that impressive but they tried to win by doing lot of attacks and had time to create several opportunities that should have been goal.
Is very unfortunate that there was not single beautiful goal that we saw in this match and the only goal was created by Osimhen, even then it was only thanks to penalty kick, and for Fenerbahce tomorrow they will face Adana Demirspor, they are team at the bottom of the standings, I make Fenerbahce the favorite for this time.

tonight, galatasaray will face hatayspor away.

it’s not a difficult prediction, but i’m confident galatasaray will win. those who follow the team know that hatayspor matches aren’t usually easy for galatasaray, as they tend to be quite challenging.

however, this time galatasaray is in great form, while hatayspor is struggling. if you look at recent trends, you might predict events like both teams scoring, galatasaray scoring first, or the match ending over 2.5 goals. these are common patterns in galatasaray’s games this season.

while these streaks will eventually come to an end, i don’t think tonight will be that night. galatasaray seems determined to keep their momentum going.

the match ended in a 1-1 draw.

this game clearly exposed galatasaray’s defensive weaknesses and midfield vulnerabilities. it’s evident that galatasaray needs reinforcements, especially in the full-back positions and at number 8.

when you look at their bench, it’s easy to see why a team with a starting lineup far above the league’s standard struggles whenever injuries occur.

hopefully, this match serves as a wake-up call for the management, helping them grasp the significance of drawing with the second-to-last team in the league. this team’s need for transfers is undeniable.

Galatasaray's defense does not give confidence, we now see it as normal to concede goals in matches, we usually scored more goals. Let's ignore the mistakes in defense, Galatasaray was bad in the future as well today. A few missed positions by Barış Alper Yılmaz, that is, he must have driven the fans who watched those positions carefully crazy.

He planted the ball in an empty comfortable position, he could not control it in the same similar position, he got tangled up many times. Icardi's absence is very obvious in the future.

Galatasaray will play Hatayspor tonight, it will be an easy match for Galatasaray.
Hatayspor is one of the worst teams in the league both in terms of finance and squad quality.

When people say: "anything can happen in a football match", it's not a lie. I had placed Galatasaray to win in my multibet bet, I considered this bet to be a very safe bet, because the opponent was very weak, they are in the relegation zone and had a sequence of many games without winning, but I am very shocked that the game ended in a draw and that Galatasaray only managed to score a goal thanks to a draw.

Quote from: MK-74 on January 17, 2025, 01:21:53 AM

I don't know who Ole Gunnar Solskjær is. I hope he will be a useful coach for Beşiktaş.

He was a Manchester United player and Manchester United coach and he did not have good results as Manchester United coach, given the fact that he is not very experienced as a coach, I think he will need a lot of time to adapt to the team and the Turkish league.

Football doesn't always go our way most times because the match between Hatayspor and Galatasaray is over now and the score is 1:1 and if not that Victor Osimhen converted a penalty that was awarded to Galatasaray, who knows they could have probably lost the match. Galatasaray is topping the league with quite a nice gap so it could be the reason why they didn't take this game more serious because most people believed they can win since Hatayspor is performing badly and at the risk of being relegated as they are far below in the league table around the 18th position. Hatayspor might be relegated since they lack the finance and the technicality that will enable them to perform more better and go out of their current state.
