Galatasaray vs Atletico Madrid Prediction, Odds and Picks for Wednesday, 01/21/26

Victor Osimhen’s return to Galatasaray colors after the Africa Cup of Nations should bolster the Turkish champions’ chances of taking something from the visit of Atletico Madrid in the Champions League this week. Osimhen was in deadly form for Nigeria in Morocco, scoring 4 goals in the tournament. The former Napoli hitman bagged 9 goals in his last 9 appearances for Galatasaray too, including a hat-trick at Ajax and a brace at home to Bodo/Glimt in this competition. His presence should lift his teammates, who suffered their first defeat since early November last week in the Turkish Super Cup. The atmosphere at RAMs Park can be pretty intimidating, although it will probably not affect an experienced Atleti team that won 3-2 at PSV Eindhoven on Matchday 6.

Diego Simeone’s team was left hanging on in that match as PSV, who had 5 big chances to score, rallied from a 3-1 deficit. Goals are expected in this game with Atleti’s Champions League results speaking volumes about their strengths and weaknesses in both boxes. Both teams have scored in 5 of the Colchoneros’ 6 league-phase games with Atleti hitting multiple goals in 5, while their opponents have racked up a total of 12 goals across the half-dozen games. With that in mind, Galatasaray have a great chance to get at least a point from this matchup.
