Galatasaray Aims for Title Against Kayserispor This Sunday

ISTANBUL, Turkey — Galatasaray will play Kayserispor on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at 5 p.m. local time, needing just one point to clinch the Turkish Super Lig title. The two-time defending champions currently sit eight points clear of second-placed Fenerbahce with three matches remaining.

Having recently secured their third consecutive Turkish Cup title with a 3-0 victory over Trabzonspor, confidence in Galatasaray’s camp is high. Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen shone in the final, scoring two goals and setting a new club record with 35 goals across all competitions this season.

Galatasaray aims to seal the title in front of their home fans at Rams Park. They have been dominant in their past meetings with Kayserispor, remaining unbeaten in their last four matches, which includes a 5-1 victory earlier this season.

On the other hand, Kayserispor comes into this match after a solid run of form, sitting comfortably nine points above the relegation zone. The visitors, managed by Dusan Jakirovic, have gone six matches unbeaten and hope to continue their positive momentum.

Galatasaray will be without key players including their defender who is recovering from a cruciate ligament injury. Kayserispor will also miss some players, including striker who is sidelined due to an Achilles injury.

This encounter not only has title implications for Galatasaray but also represents a significant test for Kayserispor as they look to secure their top-flight status. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. local time.
