Preseason friendlies: Galatasaray vs. Venezia, probable lineups

Galatasaray vs. Venezia is a friendly match scheduled for Monday evening at 8:00 p.m. in Linz. The Turkish champions are back in action against an Italian team after suffering a surprise loss to Monza last week. Venezia, newly promoted to Serie A, are coming off victories against Dolomiti Bellunesi and Vis Pesaro. Both teams are currently on training camp in Austria: the Turkish league begins on August 14, while Serie A kicks off a week later.

Osimhen is expected to start, with Guner, Gabriel Sara, and Sallai playing behind him. Ugochuwku and Gundogan will anchor the midfield. Jelert and Karatas will play on the wings.

Stroppa fields his Venezia squad with the attacking duo of Rrahmani and Casas; the wingers will be Compagnon and Farij, while Helgason, Dagasso, and Basic will run the show in midfield.
