Eskisehir has only one point in the league. They have really missed Batuhan last week. But the young attacker returns this week. They want to win against Galatasaray again as they have no defeat against them in the last four meetings. The visitors are in a very bad shape. The board wants to sack Frank Rijkaard. But if they do it, they have to pay him too much. The defence line is too shaky. Although they have managed to take the lead, they could not save their net for one minute. There is also a problem on the net. Neither Aykut, nor Ufuk... are trustable. Kewel, who did not play in Ukraine, should return this week. If not, they are in trouble again.

Galatasaray feels terrible right now. They fill face Eskisehir which they have failed to defeat in the last four meetings. I think the Lions will be much careful and patient at back. My advice is to bet on draw at 1st half.
For the draw at 1st half, the best odds are at Bet365, Sportingbet and Bwin.
