Galatasaray

Galatasaray failed utterly in the first match against AZ. The Turkish club had the task of moving the series home with an advantage, or with a draw, but here they were badly unlucky. The Lions on the road suffered a crushing defeat with a margin of three goals. Now Galatasaray need a comeback: a scoreline of at least 3:0, which is not so easy to do against the Dutch club. The upcoming game they are approaching after a 2:1 victory over Rizespor in the national championship.

AZ

AZ in the upcoming game will try not to lose the three-goal advantage, and even increase it if possible. The team has big ambitions in attack. Over the last five games, they managed to hit 14 shots on goal, which is an average of just under three per game. In addition, AZ approaches the upcoming match with a series of four wins in a row. In the national championship he managed to beat Willem and Zwolle (2:0 each), in the Dutch Cup - Quick Boys (3:1), and last but not least Galatasaray - 4:1.

H2H Meetings

In the first match of the round of 32, Galatasaray and AZ met on the field in the Netherlands. The advantage of the home stands made itself felt. The Lions was extremely difficult to conduct attacks and contain the onslaught of the hosts, which confirms the final score on the scoreboard - 4:1.

Expert Betting Tips

In the return match, you should not expect a lot of goals. In the first AZ earned themselves a great advantage, which they will try to keep. Galatasaray need to score at least three goals to go further, but they should not concede. In our opinion, there will not be a comeback, the guests will play excellent second numbers and will not let the Lions realize their chances. We suggest betting on the total under with a small margin.

Total Under 3.5 for 1.78

X2 for 2.29
