On Tuesday evening, Galatasaray will aim to stay on track for a potential domestic double when they face fellow Super Lig outfit Konyaspor in the semi-finals of the Turkish Cup.

Back in April, Konyaspor brushed aside Iskenderunspor with a commanding 3-0 victory to reach their first final-four in the Turkish Cup since their triumphant 2016/2017 run, a landmark year that saw them lift the trophy for the first time ever.

Driven by the spark of Victor Osimhen Galatasaray broke their semifinal drought in the Turkish Cup with a dramatic 2-1 triumph over bitter foes Fenerbahce at the Ulker Stadium in a tempestuous tie packed with emotion and marked by no fewer than five sending offs.

Konyaspor vs Galatasaray Betting Tips : UNDER 2.5

The two sides will reignite their rivalry in the Turkish Cup this season after previously sharing the same group, where Konyaspor successfully blunted Gala's offensive thrusts and earned a scoreless draw that proved enough to see them finish as Group C winners. At the same time, it’s worth noting that the Istanbul giants had to rely on an Osimhen spot-kick to edge past Konyaspor in their league opener, so we believe Recep Ucar’s men have what it takes to deliver another stubborn display to keep Galata’s attacking waves at bay and drag this into a scrappy and unattractive contest. Generally, the Anatolian Eagles are known for their methodical tempo and disciplined defense, which often leads to goal droughts, with five of their last eight competitive matches being decided by a single goal. On the other side, the Istanbul Lions have recently strengthened their defensive game, keeping things tight and secure, boasting three clean sheets in their last four Super Lig appearances, and coupled with Konyaspor’s reputation for being tough to break down, this suggests the first finalist of the Turkish Cup could be decided through extra time or a penalty shootout.

Konyaspor team news

After picking up an injury in the cup quarterfinal earlier this month, Tunahan Tasci remains unavailable, so Senegalese forward Alassane Ndao is expected to take his place.

Key center-back Adil Demirbag will serve a one-match suspension in the league but will be available for selection in Wednesday's cup semifinal against Galatasaray, strengthening Konyaspor's defense.

Galatasaray team news

Due to red cards handed out in the intense Istanbul derby during the Turkish Cup quarterfinals, Kerem Demirbay and Baris Alper Yilmaz will be absent from Tuesday's clash against Konya because of their suspensions.

It’s unlikely that head coach Okan Buruk will make any major changes to the starting lineup from the one that knocked out bitter rivals Fenerbahce in the last-eight round.
