When the Champions League groups were drawn on 31st August, almost nobody saw Galatasaray have a chance to compete for the top two spots with Bayern Munich and Manchester United. Still, the struggling Red Devils are going through another crisis, so the Turkish team has a good position with four points after two rounds. Galatasaray won the last six matches in all competitions, so their morale can hardly be better ahead of the game against Bayern. In the previous match, the Turkish champs won 2-1 at home against Besiktas.
Bayern Munich are the best team in this group and one of the best in the competition. They began the strongest European competition with six points from the first two rounds and could advance to the next phase after two games against Galatasaray. Bayern Munich are without a loss since the first match of the season and defeat in the German Super Cup versus RB Leipzig. In the previous game, Thomas Tuchel's team won 3-1 on the road against Mainz. That was another convincing performance from the Bundesliga champs.
Galatasaray vs Bayern Munich pick: Over 3.5 goals
Galatasaray scored nine goals in the last four matches. On the other hand, Bayern Munich scored 36 goals in the previous 11 games. That is 3.3 goals per game. Both teams are high-scoring, so over 3.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Galatasaray team news
Galatasaray won on Saturday against Besiktas, but the head coach Okan Buruk said his team needs to play even better. He said, "For us today, overall, our finishing was not sufficient. We went to the opponent's penalty area easily. We couldn't make the last passes correctly, we couldn't make the crosses correctly. We couldn't get the ball to the right place. A team of our quality needs to do these better. The number of shots is almost 30, but we will work on it by making a clear analysis of how many of them were of the quality we wanted."
Galatasary will have a full squad for the game against Bayern.

Bayern Munich team news
Bayern Munich won on Saturday against Mainz, and the head coach Thomas Tuchel was pleased. Still, the head coach said he wasn't completely satisfied with the play in the attack, as they were sloppy too often.
Bayern Munich have much more problems in the squad. Dayot Upamecano and Raphael Guerreiro are injured and will not play in Istanbul. Also, Serge Gnabry and Manuel Neuer are lacking match fitness and shouldn't play in the upcoming tie.
