Galatasaray are without Leão and Singo, with Torreira a doubt. Fenerbahçe lose Škriniar to suspension and are missing Oosterwolde, Asensio and Müldür, with Kanté a doubt.
Our prediction and why
We take Galatasaray or draw (1X). Galatasaray have won four of their last five and are strong at home, but Fenerbahçe are in good form and derbies are tight, so our rules use double chance. This is one of the riskier picks on the card, at about a 66% chance.
