With Victor Osimhen back in action, Galatasaray have a formidable duo with Mauro Icardi also likely in the starting lineup, while Dries Mertens also contributes to the attack.
After serving a three-match suspension, Galatasaray’s main goalkeeper Fernando Muslera will return to the starting XI. However, Ismail Jakobs is sidelined due to an injury.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham have also started the current Europa League campaign in a solid fashion. They secured victories against Qarabag, Ferencvaros and AZ Alkmaar, collecting nine points so far.
The Spurs are devastating at counterattacks. At the moment, no team in the top 5 leagues have scored more on counterattacks than Tottenham, which has resulted in seven goals.

In general, Tottenham’s attack remains one of the club’s main strengths. In the past match against Aston Villa, they scored three goals in the last twenty minutes.
Key players like Wilson Odobert and Micky Van de Ven are still recovering from injuries. Against Aston Villa, Richarlison injured his muscle and is also expected to be out for several weeks. Additionally, Cristian Romero is also out with toe ligament damage.
Bet hereGalatasaray vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction
- Pick: Galatasaray or Draw
- Odds: 1.51 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Galatasaray 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur
Galatasaray have a four-game winning streak. In their last match, they confidently won the local derby against Besiktas and solidified their position in the Turkish Süper Lig.
Nevertheless, the hosts have been reckless in the Europa League. In the match against Elfsborg, they eased off too early, nearly squandering a comfortable three-goal lead. Such lapses could prove costly against Tottenham.

The Spurs, meanwhile, have been inconsistent in the Premier League. The Londoners do not perform well away and Istanbul is never an easy destination. It will be difficult for the guests to win here considering that Ange Postecoglou will likely to rotate his squad. Thus our pick for this game is Galatasaray or draw.
Galatasaray vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Over 10.5 Shots on Target
- Odds: 1.65 (22Bet)
The Spurs defence has performed well in the Europa League, but even Qarabag and Ferencvaros managed to create chances. Tottenham’s opponents regularly deliver four or more shots on target.
Both teams are fond of attacking and scoring many goals. This makes for a promising game, where the sides will produce numerous attempts, resulting in a vast number of shots on target.
The club’s defence has been an Achilles heel throughout the season, but they have excellent forwards. We expect an exchange of attacks and goals; hence, our second prediction for Galatasaray vs Tottenham is over 10.5 shots on target.
