Fenerbahce vs Galatasaray Prediction and Betting Tips | December 1st 2025

Fenerbahce will host Galatasaray at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium on Monday in another round of the 2025-26 Turkish Super Lig campaign. The home side are in excellent form at the moment after a shaky start to their season and will be targeting maximum points next week in a game that could prove pivotal in the title race.

Fenerbahce picked up an impressive 5-2 comeback victory over Rizespor in their last league outing, finding themselves two goals down at the break before upping the ante in the second half to secure a dominant win. They were, however, forced to settle for a point in their Europa League game on Thursday as they played out a 1-1 home draw with Ferencváros.

Galatasaray, meanwhile, have produced less-than-ideal performances in recent games as they continue to cope with a lengthy injury list. They picked up a narrow 3-2 win over newly promoted Gençlerbirliği in their last Super Lig outing before losing 1-0 on home turf to Belgian side Royale Union Saint-Gilloise in the UEFA Champions League during the week.

The visitors remain atop the league table with 32 points from 13 matches. They sit just one point above their rivals in second place, making next week’s result crucial in their bid to maintain their position at the top.

Fenerbahce vs Galatasaray Prediction

Sarı Kanaryalar head into the midweek clash on a brilliant 11-game unbeaten run, having picked up eight wins in that period. They are slight favourites going into this one and will rely heavily on their home advantage to secure a derby victory.

Cimbom, meanwhile, have lost two of their last three matches and have won just two of their last five. They are missing multiple key players ahead of this fixture, and that could prove costly.

Prediction: Fenerbahce 2-1 Galatasaray
