Galatasaray visit Kasımpaşa on Sunday night in the 34th and final week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, with the champions already crowned and the season winding to its close at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadı. The match starts at 20.00, will be officiated by Adnan Deniz Kayatepe and is being shown live on beIN Sports.
For Galatasaray, the trip comes after last week’s title-clinching result, with the club entering the final round on 77 points and four points clear of Fenerbahçe. Kasımpaşa, by contrast, arrive with 32 points from 33 matches and sit 14th after a season of seven wins, 11 draws and 15 losses.
The meeting also carries the weight of the first half of the campaign, when Galatasaray beat Kasımpaşa 3-0. That result set the tone for a one-sided matchup, and the lineups again underline the difference in status: Kasımpaşa start Ali Emre, Arous, Becao, Kamil Ahmet, Opoku, Baldursson, İrfan Can, Cafu, Kerem, Diabate and Benedyczak, while Galatasaray name Günay, Icardi, Sane, Eren, İlkay, Kaan, Nhaga, Lang, Singo, Arda and Boey.
The final whistle here will not change the destination of the championship, but it does close the league calendar for the side that has already done the hard work. For Kasımpaşa, the night is about finishing a difficult campaign against the team that has defined the season.
