12'
There is just three points between the top three teams at the top of the Turkish Super Lig at the moment. A win for Galatasaray here would take them to within one point of top spot.
11'
That was an opportunity for Seri to pick out a teammate as he burst through the centre of the midfield on the attack, but he played the pass straight to a Besiktas player.
10'
There is VAR in the Turkish Super Lig, but even with the technology the officials don't see that punch from Karius on Donk as worthy of a penalty kick to Galatasaray. Play continues.
9'
Header wide! The Galatasaray played believe that they should have been awarded a penalty kick for a punch in the chest of Donk as he went for a header. The ball flashes wide.
8'
Chance for Onyekuru! The Galatasaray man was played through, but the block was made by the Besiktas defende, Gokhan!. That was a golden opportunity for Onyekuru to find the back of the net!
7'
Shot is blocked! The ball was played back to the former Fulham midfielder on the edge of the penalty area, but Seri's shot is blocked and Karius makes the comfortable save.
6'
That should have been a corner kick! Vida's header from a set piece flashes over the crossbar, but it picked up a touch off a Galatasaray player. The referee incorrectly gives the goal kick.
5'
Terim watches from the touchline as the rain pours in Istanbul. It's a cold afternoon for this one, although the conditions for the players on the pitch should be good. The field is slick.
4'
Onyekuru has given Galatasaray another dimension since his return from a loan spell at Monaco. Will he make the difference for the home team this afternoon? He has pace to burn.
3'
There's no doubting that Galatasaray are the form team coming into this game as they target the Turkish Super Lig title. They will be the favourites to claim all three points from this one.
2'
It is very eery at the Turk Telecom Arena. Ordinarily there would be a red hot atmosphere for this one, a derby match. But it's completely silent with no supporters in the stands.
