'Osimhen will score both goals' - Ex-Liverpool forward makes prediction on Galatasaray v Fenerbahce

Former Liverpool and Galatasaray forward Ryan Babel has made a bold prediction ahead of the highly anticipated Galatasaray-Fenerbahçe derby.

The Dutchman believes that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen will be the decisive factor in the crucial fixture.

With Galatasaray looking to maintain their six-point lead over arch-rivals Fenerbahçe, anticipation for the match is at an all-time high.

The clash is expected to play a significant role in determining the Super League championship race.

Babel, who spent time at Galatasaray between 2019 and 2022, shared his thoughts on the upcoming derby in an interview with Assist Analiz.

Babel's explanations are as follows:

"My score prediction for the derby is 2-1 Galatasaray. Osimhen will score both goals," he was quoted as saying by habersarikirmizi.com.

Babel's comments have sparked discussion among fans, as Osimhen, a marquee signing for Galatasaray, is expected to play a crucial role in the derby.

The Nigerian forward, known for his speed, strength, and clinical finishing, has been in strong form this season, making him a key asset for manager Okan Buruk's squad.

With so much riding on the outcome of this derby, Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe will be under immense pressure to deliver.

If Babel's prediction holds true, Osimhen could emerge as the hero of the night, securing a vital victory for the reigning champions.
