The Battle for the Title:
Galatasaray is on the brink of securing the championship title after a three-year hiatus, during which Basaksehir, Besiktas, and Trabzonspor claimed the trophy. Expectations are high for Okan Buruk's team, particularly for the influential Mauro Icardi. The Argentine striker has been in outstanding form, scoring a brace in the last two matches and finding the net in seven out of the last eight games. Icardi is likely to play a significant role, as the coach trusts him for at least 80-85 minutes, increasing the likelihood of him adding to his goal tally.

My prediction for the Ankaragucu vs Galatasaray match is "Mauro Icardi to have a minimum of two shots on target," at odds of 2.00 available on Betano.
