Istanbul, Turkey
No wahala dey as the Turkish Super Lig dey catch fire this Friday evening as Alanyaspor prepare to face off against Galatasaray for di seventh round of dis hot league. Cimbom don dey shine like diamond this season, winning all six matches wey dem don play so far, scoring 18 goals and only letting two goals enter their net. E go sweet if Alanyaspor fit spoil dem correct record.
Galatasaray don just come from one wahala, wey dem take 5-1 beating from Eintracht Frankfurt for Champions League. Di coach, Buruk, don talk say his boys dey mentally tired from that match, but dem still manage carry 3-1 win over Konyaspor in their last league games (no be small bounce back!). Na di top scorer dey shine, as two players don dey score four goals each; dem dey on smock now.
As dem dey come play for Bahcesehir Okullari Stadium, Galatasaray dey look to extend dem winning streak wey don reach 14 matches in Super Lig. Any way you jam am, na dem be the big boys now, wey dey use di league like sey na their playground (no puns intended o). Di last time wey Alanyaspor fit beat dem na March 2021, and dem don dey lose seven matches from di last nine encounters.
Alanyaspor dey reason how to handle dis match as dem come with some impressive form, unbeaten in di last four league games (two wins, two draws), and dem don be strong at home. But dem get some serious work to do, because e no go easy to carry points from Galatasaray. Di players, including Ogundu, dey ready to fire gun for front to disturb Galatasaray defence.
Di bad news for Alanyaspor be say dem no fit use Buluthan Bulut due to serious injury wey go keep am sidelined for one month. As dem dey prepare to face Cimbom, dem go rely on their home fans to push dem, because losing no go be the right vibe for dem (and di fans go comot broom).
As la liga champions dey come line up, Galatasaray dey expect to use di same tactics as before, with Icardi and Sane leading di attack. Dey gatz maintain dem solid form, as e go hard gidigba for Alanyaspor to outplay dem.
Showdown go dey real for di pitch, and if Alanyaspor wan turn di tables, e sure say dem go need firepower from di start. Galatasaray dey come on top already, but na football – anything fit happen. Di crowd go ready to see wetin happen, as e fit be ‘one of those nights’. Who go win? We go see.
So, grab your popcorn, carry your friends, make you sit down for house dey watch di match. Football na everything for weekend, and dis one no go be exception. Let di best team win!
