Team News

AZ Alkmaar
Galatasaray
  • Kristijan Belic is suspended for AZ, though was unlikely to have started even if available.
  • Mexx Meerdink and Seiya Maikuma are both ruled out due to injury, with Denso Kasius potentially deputising for the latter at right-back.
  • Ibrahim Sadiq, Ruben van Bommel and Sem Westerveld are all doubts for the home side.
  • Galatasaray face AZ Alkmaar with three key players missing due to yellow card accumulation.
  • Davinson Sanchez, Lucas Torreira and Victor Osimhen are all banned, with Elias Jelert, Berkan Kutlu and Alvaro Morata all expected to deputise, respectively.
  • Mauro Icardi is a long-term absentee for the Super Lig side.

Head to Head Stats

Prediction

  • Since their entertaining 4-3 loss to Ferencvaros last month, AZ have won three on the spin. AZ have won eight of their last nine at home coming into Thursday's game against Galatasaray, which includes notable wins over Ajax and Roma.
  • Galatasaray's game against Adana Demirspor on Sunday was abandoned after the Adana players left the pitch in protest with the Super Lig leaders 1-0 up at the time. Okan Buruk's side have struggled a little of late, winning only four of their last eight, though three of those victories have come in their last four outings.
  • AZ and Galatasaray played out a 1-1 draw in the league phase, and a repeat is possible on Thursday evening.
