Galatasaray – Besiktas Tip Süper Lig, Matchday 8 on Saturday, 04.10.25 at 7:00 p.m.
Registering with Bet365 now – if you don’t already have an account with the bookmaker – is the last chance for Turkish soccer fans to get in on the betting action before the Istanbul derby.
The question I asked myself until shortly before submitting my Galatasaray Besiktas prediction was whether the Champions League participant could carry the magnificent mood from their recent triumph over Liverpool into this match.
The home team has also celebrated seven league wins in a row and, unlike their upcoming opponents, has no personnel losses to lament.
When you consider that my betting tip would have been successful in each of the last five Süper Lig home games against BJK, then a Gala win & over 2.5 goals is almost a must for every sports betting fan.
Galatasaray vs. Besiktas AI predictions:
Do you know who has scored in each of the last four Süper Lig games? The same player recommended by our Galatasaray Besiktas AI prediction for a goal bet: Mauro Icardi.
However, our AI model doesn’t stop there and recommends the selection “Galatasaray win & Icardi to score” at attractive odds of around 2.35 on the comprehensive Betano app.
Without hesitation, I give this a thumbs up. The accurate Argentine should indeed be able to help his team to victory once again.
Predicted chance of winning:

In 6 of the last 10 games between these two teams, more goals were scored in the first half, which is quite unusual and can be turned into a promising soccer bet.
Most goals are scored in the first half, promising impressive odds of around 3.00, which, as an impartial betting professional, I consider high enough to speculate on a continuation of this trend.
Incidentally, both teams have scored in 80% of their last ten direct encounters, but with Galatasaray Besiktas odds around 1.50, I wouldn’t say this is a bet with enormous value bet potential.
What you need to consider when betting on Galatasaray vs. Besiktas
- Galatasaray has won 7 Süper Lig games in a row – 5 times without conceding a goal
- Mauro Icardi has scored in each of his last 4 league games
- Galatasaray has won its last 5 Süper Lig home games against Besiktas despite conceding goals
- Gala has conceded only 2 goals in its last 7 league games – a historic best!
