Match Preview

G.Rangers has made a perfect start to the Scotland Premier League. They have managed to win all of six games. They have also recorded a historical victory against Dundee United with 7-2 in the League Cup. Their biggest success was to take a goalless draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Jelavic and Fleck are not eligible to play as their names are not included in the list of Uefa.

Bursaspor has also made a perfect start to the Spor Toto Super League. We could say that they have won all of six games as the uncompleted match against Gaziantep will be resulted in the favour of them. Their debut in Uefa Champions League was a huge shock. They were defeated with four goals by Valencia at home. They have to take points in Scotland in order to keep their hopes alive for their European Cup adventure. Their other goal is also to bring their morale back before they meet Manchester United twice.

The weather in Istanbul will be cloudy aroung 22 degree. The refree of the game is Serge Guimenny from Belgium. He was promoted to European A Category since 25.12.2008.

This is going to be the first meeting between two teams.

 
 Bursaspor has to get points in this game. G.Rangers will absolutely want to win at home. I think Bursaspor is more adequite to play on the road. I think the game is open to every results. We will see some goals; but my choice is total goals 2-3.
