St. Johnstone – Galatasaray

St. Johnstone are set to host Galatasaray in Europa League qualifying on Thursday. They secured an impressive draw in the first leg and will be looking to go a step further on Thursday. They have drawn both Premiership games they’ve played and will be hoping to return to winning ways against Galatasaray.

Galatasaray are a side with rich European football experience. The Turkish team failed to qualify for the Europa League last season after losing to Rangers in the fourth round of the qualifiers. They crashed out of the Champions League qualifiers, losing 7-2 on aggregate to PSV Eindhoven.

St Johnstone performed well to earn a draw away from home in the first leg. With the second leg set to take place on home turf, St Johnstone know they have a shot at history on Thursday.

However, Galatasaray have a wealth of history in European football, something their hosts don’t. Galatasaray also have a significantly stronger side and will rely on that when they travel to St Johnstone. Galatasaray should have enough firepower to get the job done.

This match will be played on 12/08/2021 at 21:00.
