Galatasaray v Antalyaspor: title push meets survival fight | OneFootball

Galatasaray host Antalyaspor in the Süper Lig on Saturday, 9 May 2026, in İstanbul, with the leaders looking to stay clear at the summit while the visitors aim to keep daylight between themselves and the relegation places.

Galatasaray have dominated this fixture in recent seasons, winning the last three league meetings 4-1, 4-0 and 3-0. Antalyaspor's task is made tougher away from home against the division's pacesetters.

Aslan's recent run mixed a statement 3-0 home win over Fenerbahçe with a 4-1 defeat at Samsunspor. Antalyaspor arrive with one win in five, a 0-0 draw against Alanyaspor last time out following defeats by Göztepe, Konyaspor and Beşiktaş.

Aslan are without suspended goalkeeper Günay Güvenc and defender Metehan Baltacı, while Gabriel Sara and Yaser Asprilla are injured. Antalyaspor's head coach is Sami Ugurlu.

Okan Buruk's side have paired control with end product this season: 61% possession, 87.12% passing accuracy, 73 goals scored and only 27 conceded. Antalyaspor have registered 46% possession with 30 goals for and 51 against. In attack, Mauro Icardi has 14 league goals and Victor Osimhen 13, with Baris Yilmaz supplying 10 assists, according to the latest league rankings, while Ramzi Safuri leads Antalyaspor's creativity with five assists. The game could tilt if Aslan pin Antalyaspor back and feed Icardi and Osimhen. The visitors may need compact lines and quick counters via Safuri's deliveries.

A win would take Aslan to 77 points and could tighten their grip on first place. Antalyaspor, on 29 points in 15th, would move to 32 with victory and could pull further clear of the relegation zone.
