OKAN BURUK WILL STEP ON THE FIELD FOR A RECORD

If Galatasaray leaves the field with 3 points, their head coach Okan Buruk will become the Turkish coach with the most victories in the UEFA Europa League. Buruk, who has managed 15 matches in "Cup 2" with Istanbul Başakşehir and Galatasaray, has 8 victories, 2 draws, and 5 losses. The experienced coach shares the title of the Turkish coach with the most victories in the tournament, which has been held under the name UEFA Europa League since 2009, with Aykut Kocaman, Mustafa Reşit Akçay, and Şenol Güneş. If Buruk achieves one more victory, he will be the sole owner of the top spot.

CIMBOM HAS NOT LOST IN THE LAST 11 MATCHES

Galatasaray has not lost in their last 11 official matches. The yellow-red team, which experienced its last defeat against Swiss representative Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League playoff round, has since played 8 Super League and 3 UEFA Europa League matches. Galatasaray has achieved 7 victories in the Super League and 2 in Europe, with one draw in each competition.

MUSLERA'S SUSPENSION IS OVER

Galatasaray's Uruguayan goalkeeper Fernando Muslera will be able to play in the match. The captain of the yellow-red team received a 3-match suspension due to a red card he received in the match against Swiss representative Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League playoff round. Having served his suspension in the matches against PAOK, RFS, and Elfsborg, Muslera will be able to guard the goal in the Tottenham match. In Muslera's absence, Günay Güvenç took charge of the goal in those matches.

JAKOBS AND SALLAI ARE OUT

Ismail Jakobs, who is injured, and Roland Sallai, who is not on the UEFA list, will not be able to play against the English representative. Jakobs, who was injured in the Trendyol Super League's 9th week match against Onvo Antalyaspor, missed the UEFA Europa League match against Elfsborg and the league derby against Beşiktaş. Sallai, who was transferred after the final squad was submitted to UEFA, along with young players Eyüp Aydın and Gökdeniz Gürpüz, who were not registered on the list, will also miss the match.

5 ABSENCES IN THE ENGLISH TEAM

The North London team has 5 players with injuries. In the navy-blue and white team, center-backs Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, right-back Djed Spence, winger Wilson Odobert, and striker Richarlison are all injured. It is expected that four of these players, except for Spence, will not be able to play in the Galatasaray match. Although the Jamaican-born English right-back was not included in the squad for the last match, it has been reported that he may still have a chance to play against Galatasaray. In Richarlison's absence, head coach Ange Postecoglou is expected to take a risk by giving significant playing time to star player Heung-min Son, who has just recovered from a thigh injury and is not physically ready.

A SPECIAL MATCH FOR SANCHEZ

Galatasaray's Colombian center-back Davinson Sanchez will play against his former team. Sanchez, who made a significant leap in his football career by transferring to Ajax in the Netherlands in 2016, moved to Tottenham a year later. The 28-year-old center-back, who played for the North London representative for 6 seasons, has appeared in 207 matches. Sanchez, who transferred to Galatasaray for a fee of 9.5 million euros in 2023, has made significant contributions to the team over 2 seasons, becoming one of the key players.

TORREIRA, ZIYECH, AND ICARDI LOVE PLAYING AGAINST TOTTENHAM

Three players in Galatasaray's squad have celebrated goals in matches they played against Tottenham before. Lucas Torreira, who played for Arsenal in the Premier League, has played against the North London team in 3 league and 1 cup matches. The Uruguayan midfielder has scored once against the opponent. Hakim Ziyech, who played for Chelsea and Ajax, has faced Tottenham 7 times, scoring 2 goals. Mauro Icardi faced Tottenham twice in the UEFA Champions League while playing for Inter, scoring once. Michy Batshuayi, who played for Chelsea, has played against Tottenham 5 times but has not scored.

EUROPEAN GOALSCORER YUNUS

Yunus Akgün, who came up through the Galatasaray youth system, has scored in all 3 matches he played in the UEFA Europa League. After Kerem Aktürkoğlu's transfer to Benfica, Yunus has drawn attention with his effective play on the left wing of the yellow-red team, participating in 14 official matches this season. Yunus has 2 goals in the Super League and has scored once in the UEFA Europa League matches against PAOK, RFS, and Elfsborg. In total, Yunus has celebrated 5 goals in official matches.

LION IS THE TOP SCORER IN THE SUPER LEAGUE AND EUROPA LEAGUE

Galatasaray is the top-scoring team in both the Super League and the UEFA Europa League. The yellow-red team has scored 29 goals in 10 matches in the Super League and 9 goals in "Cup 2". Galatasaray, which is at the top of the Super League, shares the lead in the Europa League with Lazio. Mauro Icardi, Victor Osimhen, and Barış Alper Yılmaz have all scored 4 goals in Super League matches for Cimbom. They are followed by Dries Mertens with 3 goals, and Michy Batshuayi, Yunus Akgün, Gabriel Sara, Davinson Sanchez, and Abdülkerim Bardakcı with 2 goals each.
