RAMS Park will host an entertaining preseason contest as Galatasaray and Rennes continue fine-tuning their squads ahead of the new campaign. Galatasaray are eager to bounce back from a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Venezia, a result that exposed a few defensive weaknesses. The Turkish champions are expected to make several changes, with Barış Alper Yılmaz and Gabriel Gomes both pushing for a place in the starting XI after making positive impacts from the bench last time out. Playing in front of their home fans should provide an extra boost as Galatasaray look to end preseason on a positive note.
Rennes, meanwhile, arrive in Istanbul in high spirits after recording consecutive friendly victories over Guingamp and Club Brugge. The French side have looked sharp in the final third throughout preseason, with summer signing Issa Soumaré already making an immediate impact by scoring twice. Rennes have averaged 2.2 goals per game across their last ten matches and have found the net in every one of those outings, suggesting they will once again pose a serious attacking threat. With both teams expected to rotate throughout the match, an open and entertaining affair appears to be on the cards.
Galatasaray and Rennes both possess plenty of attacking quality, while Rennes have scored in each of their last ten matches. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on BTTS, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals (Rennes' recent games have been full of goals, and Galatasaray are unlikely to abandon their attacking approach at home).
This match will be played on Sunday 2 August 2026 at 19:00.
