Manchester United vs Galatasaray Bts

Head To Head: The head to head record between these two is reasonably close and leans only marginally in United’s favour. From their last five meetings, two have been won by United, one by Galatasaray, while the other two both ended in goalless draws.

Stats: In their last five games, United have scored nine and conceded nine, conceding four goals in their last game against Dortmund. Galatasaray have also scored nine goals in their last five but have only conceded three. United have kept only one clean sheet in their last five, whereas Galatasaray can double this stat, boasting two clean sheets from their last five matches.

Reason: United’s pre-season hasn’t been great so far. They started out with a reasonable 2-0 victory over Wigan but were then embarrassed by Dortmund, losing 4-1. Galatasaray, on the other hand, have done reasonably well and are yet to be beaten in their season preparations. Although, it has to be said, they haven’t faced anyone of Dortmund’s stature.

One thing these two appear to have in common is a lack of defensive solidity, neither side have looked convincing at the back during this pre-season. United’s defence completely lost its way last time out against Dortmund, while Galatasaray conceded in both a 1-1 draw with Young Boys and when defeating Aarhus 3-1 in their last match.

In finding a bet for this fixture, both teams to score sticks out as the best choice. United have seen both teams to score in four of their last five matches, while there has been a both teams to score outcome in three of the last five Galatasaray games. What’s more is the way this game is likely to be played. Having experienced defeat last time out, United will be keen to come out and play on the front foot. With the quality in their ranks they shouldn’t have too much problem scoring but at the same time, if the Turkish side get their tactics right, they should have plenty of opportunities on the counter attack.
