Antalyaspor host Galatasaray in the Süper Lig on Saturday, 13 December 2025 in Antalya, with the visitors top and the hosts aiming to pull away from the lower half.
Galatasaray have dominated this fixture in recent seasons, winning 3-0 in Antalya in October 2024 and 4-0 at home in March 2025. Antalyaspor sit in the lower half after 15 games and face the league leaders here.
Antalyaspor's recent league run brought draws at Konyaspor and Alanyaspor either side of a home defeat by Göztepe. Aslan drew at Fenerbahçe and edged past Samsunspor 3-2, while their most recent outing was a narrow Champions League defeat away to Monaco.
Team news could matter. Antalyaspor are without Julián Cuesta, Erdogan Yesilyurt and Hasan İlçin, with Kerem Kayaarası suspended. Aslan list Mario Lemina, Kaan Ayhan, Ugurcan Cakir and Wilfried Stephane Singo as injured, with Eren Elmali and Metehan Baltacı suspended.
On the numbers, Aslan's 32 league goals, 61% possession and 86.96% passing hint at control and supply, with Mauro Icardi on seven league goals. Antalyaspor average 0.9 goals per game and have conceded 25. They may need to stay compact and be clinical on transitions to trouble the leaders.
A home win would lift Antalyaspor to 18 points and could ease them away from the relegation fight. Victory for Aslan would move them to 39 points and could tighten their grip on first place in the title race.
