Fenerbahce vs Galatasaray Betting Tips - Over 2.5 goals
An exhilarating and entertaining derby contest has to be expected on Sunday with both teams in sensational form in the Super Lig this season. 16 games into the campaign, both teams have dropped just five points and as result, find themselves neck-and-neck at the top of the division, 14 points clear of third-placed Kayserispor.
In a match that has the feel of being crucial in deciding who will go on to claim the title at the end of the season.
Historically, this fixture has proven a fiery one that usually sees plenty of cards. Remarkably, a total of eight red cards have been shown in the last ten meetings between these sides.
At this venue, Fener have lost three of their last four matches against Gala, while they have won just two of 12 previous matches since 2017.
Ahead of this match, both teams have won their last four league encounters and it's tough to pick either team with too much confidence. While Gala have had the edge in recent battles, Fenerbahce have a superb home record and I can't pick a winner in this huge Super Lig match.
Instead, I´ll take a chance on this game seeing goals. Three of the last four meetings between these great rivals have seen over 2.5 goals scored and considering both teams attacking styles, we can hope for a pulsating contest with plenty of opportunities at both ends of the park.
