Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

As you can see, our prediction for Friday's fixture is over 2.5 goals, meaning that we expect Istanbul and Galatasaray to score 3 goals or more between them during the traditional 90 minutes. 2 goals or fewer would mean the time doesn't win but, with statistics below suggesting there will be plenty of firepower on the pitch, we think it looks like a great bet.
