Napoli defender explained the difference between playing with Romelu Lukaku and Victor Osimhen on the team.
Galatasary currently lead the standings with 15 points from 5 matches, while Fernebache are closely behind, having amassed 13 points from the same number of games.
Victor Osimhen was absent as Galatasaray thrashed Gaziantep FK 3-1 courtesy of goals from Yilmaz, Akgün and former Chelsea star Michy Batshuayi.
However, the Nigerian star was in action when Galatasaray won their previous game 5-0 at home against Rizespor.
Going into this weekend’s game, Mourinho's men have the better form. They have won 3 and drawn two of their last 5 games, while Galatasaray have won 3 but lost 2 of their previous 5 matches.
On head-to-head, Galatasaray slightly shade it. The Yellow-Red outfit have won 12 of their last 36 meetings; Fernebache have won 11 and 13 draws between both teams.
