Real Madrid will look to return to winning ways in the Santiago Bernabeu Trophy after playing out a drab goalless draw with Norwegian side Valerenga on 9 August in Oslo. The Spanish giants looked solid at the back but lacked a cutting edge going forward, with Welsh forward Gareth Bale only showing flashes of his ability.
Bale will hope to win back the Santiago Bernabeu faithful after he came under fire from sections of Real Madrid's support for his performances during the 2014/15 campaign.
Sergio Ramos, who agreed a new five-year contract with Real on 17 August, and Cristiano Ronaldo are both likely to feature having recovered from minor injury problems, but Karim Benzema (thigh) is a doubt.
The Turkish Super Lig kicked off last week, with Galatasaray drawing their opening game 2-2 with Sivasspor.
Hamza Hamzaoglu's side secured a domestic treble last season and will be eager to test themselves against the superstars of Real.
"We have not received a bid which matches our valuation for (left-back) Alex Telles. Therefore we have not allowed him to leave. If a bid comes in close to our valuation we will consider selling" says Hamza Hamzaoglu.
The possibe XI as follows:
Real Madrid: Navas; Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo; Kroos, Modric; Rodriguez, Bale, Ronaldo; Jese
Galatasaray: Muslera; Sarioglu, Chedjou, Balta, Telles; Kisa, Inan; Adin, Sneijder, Oztekin; Podolski
