Osimhen chases 10th Gala goal against Goztepe

The Turkish Super Lig resumes this weekend with Galatasaray hoping to continue its unbeaten run against Goztepe SK at the Rams Global Stadium.Just as Galatasaray hopes to keep it's unbeaten runs, Nigeria international, Victor Osimhen will be hoping to add to his goal tally. Galatasaray, the only team yet to taste defeat in the Turkish Super Lig, will welcome one of the season's surprise packages, Goztepe SK on Saturday in what promises to be an intriguing encounter. The host sits comfortably at the top of the league table, boasting an eight-point advantage over the nearest challengers – meanwhile, the visitors, though trailing by 16 points, can take pride in their impressive fourth-place standing at this stage of the campaign. Galatasaray ended the year 2024 on a high note, delivering a performance worthy of champions in the emphatic 5-1 demolition of Kayserispor just before Christmas. Victor Osimhen returned from injury and made an immediate impact with a brace to bring his goals to nine in the Super Lig. Looking to start 2025 with a flourish, Gala will set sights on a sixth consecutive victory over the visitors – however, there is room for caution, as both occasions where the hosts dropped points this season occurred on home soil. With Mauro Icardi still sidelined with a cruciate ligament tear, Galatasaray's goals will rest on the shoulders of Osimhen, who will aim to add to his tally of nine league goals as he leads the line.
