Galatasaray will host Samsunspor in the 15th week of the Turkish Super Lig at RAMS Park this Friday evening. The match kicks off at 12 pm ET and holds significant implications for the league standings as the leaders seek to maintain their advantage.
Galatasaray recently returned victorious from their derby against Fenerbahçe and aims to secure three more points to solidify their top position. Head coach Okan Buruk’s side has struggled with injuries and suspensions but remains confident, especially with Osimhen’s return boosting their attacking options.
Samsunspor, currently fifth in the table, has impressed under German manager Thomas Reis since promotion. The team has demonstrated resilience in both the league and Conference League, aiming to gain valuable points against the table leaders. Reis highlighted the psychological importance of performing well against top teams.
