Galatasaray - Tüek Telekom B.K.

Basketball

Match that will be played at the Sinan Erdem Dome in Istanbul, a pavilion with a capacity for 12,500 people but that when Galatasaray plays hardly receives an influx.

Galatasaray (6-5) is a team that curiously plays better away from home than at home and has a mid-level squad for this BSL. A physical team designed to defend that has won four of the last five and hasn't been playing badly at all. They are the tenth best team in attack in the league (111.3 OffRtg) and the first in the defensive aspect (105.5 DefRtg), in addition, they suffer in rebounding, where they are ninth (45.4 TRB%). At the squad level, Galatasaray has good foreigners like Bost, Caloiaro or Ennis but with low-level Turkish players, beyond Kabaca.

Turk Telekom (10-1) is probably the fittest team in Europe and they have won sixteen of the last seventeen games. A quality team with a high level in the offensive aspect but which is really good in all facets of the game. Second best team in the BSL, by far, in the offensive aspect (124.8 OffRtg) and fourth in defense (111.0 DefRtg), in addition, they are also top in rebounding, where they are second (51.5 TRB%). Squad headed by five very high-level foreigners like Taylor, Grant or Jones and the occasional high-level Turkish player in the rotation.

In short, I expect a tight game but in which the best quality of Turk Telekom's men and above all the moment of form and confidence in which they find themselves will win.
