Konyaspor vs Galatasaray

Galatasaray will compete for a domestic double during Tuesday evening when they play Konyaspor in the Turkish Cup semi-final round of the Super Lig. The energie of Victor Osimhen propelled Galatasaray to break their Turkish Cup semifinal course as they defeated enemies Fenerbahce 2-1 at the Ulker Stadium in a match that produced five dismissals amid high emotional stakes.

Under the Turkish Cup competition this season both teams will play again after they faced each other in Group C which Konyaspor managed to contain Galatasaray's attack and secure a goalless result to win their group. The Osimhen penalty-fired victory during Konyaspor's league match against Galatasaray in their opening round stands as a solid indicator that Recep Ucar's players possess the ability to keep Galatasaray from scoring in this unappealing match.

The Anatolian Eagles maintain their steady playing rhythm coupled with defensive organization to produce tight contests that end in single-goal decisions in most of their games from the past eight competitive matches. The Istanbul Lions have improved their defensive structure while maintaining three clean sheet winnings in their previous four games in the Super Lig leading to potential extra time or penalty shootout determinations for the Turkish Cup first finalist position.

That being said, they have won four of their previous five league games (L1). They have now won two straight league games after defeating Hatayspor 3-2 on the road in their most recent encounter.

Given that they held Galatasaray to a goalless draw in the group stages, the Anatolian Eagle will be confident in their ability to go above and beyond in this Turkish Cup matchup. They defeated Iskenderunspor 3-0 at home in their most recent match in this tournament.

With a record 18 championships, Okan Buruk's squad is the most successful in the Turkish Cup. They just won 2-1 on the road to defeat Fenerbahce in a fierce quarterfinal match.
