It's a new born Super Lig campaign and Kayserispor are aching to get on the pitch here at Kadir Has Şehir Stadı. Galatasaray are coming to visit and this could be a breathtaking season opening night.

The visiting Galatasaray played their last game only four days ago, a Champions League match. That game was also an away game, at Olimpija. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Galatasaray form and stats

Last season was a triumph for Galatasaray in the national league as they took home the Super Lig trophy. The championship was secured after 28 wins, 4 draws and only 4 defeats. As this is an away game, it's natural to look at the stats for away matches last season: Won 13, drew 2 and lost 3.

A quick return to home after this game, as Galatasaray are hosting Olimpija in the Champions League only three days away.

It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Galatasaray have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 4 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from seven fixtures.

Head 2 Head

Previous ten meetings between these squads: Kayserispor won two, Galatasaray were winners in six and we saw two draws. eight games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with less than 2,5 goals. The matches between these clubs sometimes lean towards being ill-tempered, having seen 7 sending-offs from the last ten duels.
