GalatasarayNo absentees
Galatasaray host Stuttgart at the Turk Telekom Arena on Tuesday 3 November, kick-off 5.45pm (UK time), with both sides desperate to climb the Champions League league-phase table.
A raucous Istanbul crowd will roar the hosts on, but Stuttgart arrive in far better shape and unbeaten after three games.
Goals look likely given Galatasaray’s generosity at the back, though the German side’s miserly defence could prove the difference on the night.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson is siding with the in-form Germans and a lively corner count in Istanbul.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Stuttgart Draw No Bet | 6/5 (bet365) | Form points firmly towards the visitors here. Stuttgart are unbeaten, sit sixth and have conceded just twice all competition, while Galatasaray are 23rd and have shipped nine goals in three games. The Draw No Bet market removes the risk of a stalemate and still returns a healthy 6/5 on a side that has looked far more assured. The clean sheet Stuttgart kept on their only away trip shows they can handle a hostile atmosphere. That defensive base also makes them a sound call to come out on top on the night. |
| Over 12.5 corners | 4/1 (BoyleSports)Galatasaray will throw numbers forward in front of their own fans. Meanwhile, a Stuttgart side happy to defend deep and counter is the ideal set-up for a high corner count. The hosts have attacked with intent even while losing, and chasing the game against organised opponents tends to force wave after wave of pressure out wide. Istanbul nights are rarely quiet. Moreover, with Galatasaray committed to attack and Stuttgart clearing their lines under pressure, 12 or more corners looks a realistic target at a tempting 4/1. |

How Galatasaray go into the game
Galatasaray go into this one 23rd in the league phase, three points from three games leaving them in the bottom third and needing a lift. The attacking returns are respectable, with six goals scored. However, the defending has been alarming, nine conceded among the worst of anyone near them. Their one home game ended in a chastening 4-1 defeat to Barcelona, which will give Stuttgart real encouragement.
Last time out, though, they bounced back with a thrilling 4-2 win away at Lille, proof that Victor Osimhen and company can hurt anyone on their day. Osimhen leads the line with real menace and the Istanbul crowd can lift the team, so Stuttgart cannot switch off. The problem remains at the back, where Galatasaray are yet to keep a clean sheet in the competition.
How Stuttgart go into the game
Stuttgart have quietly become one of the stories of the league phase, sitting sixth on seven points and unbeaten through three games. Their defence is the foundation, with just two goals conceded all competition. In addition, they kept a clean sheet on the road in a commanding 3-0 win. That solidity makes them awkward opponents even in a hostile away setting.
Fresh from a battling 1-1 draw at home with Atletico Madrid, Stuttgart travel to Turkey full of belief and hard to beat. Deniz Undav spearheads a side that picks its moments well. Furthermore, that away clean sheet shows they can soak up pressure and strike on the counter. If they keep their shape, the points are well within reach.
Galatasaray vs Stuttgart head-to-head
The two clubs have never been paired in recent European competition, so there is no head-to-head to call upon here. Current form will have to do the talking, and it points clearly in one direction.
