Preview: Alanyaspor vs. Kasimpasa - prediction, team news, lineups

The hosts head into this weekend's affair off the back of three consecutive stalemates while the visitors go in search of a first win in four games.

Match preview

Alanyaspor had to make do with a share of the spoils for the third game running following a 1-1 draw against Pendikspor at the Pendik Stadyumu on September 2.

Omer Erdogan's men scored what looked to be the winning goal in the 88th minute through Loide Augusto before Berkay Sulungoz restored parity in second-half stoppage time.

As a result, Alanyaspor have dropped down to eighth in the Turkish Super Lig table, albeit just one point adrift of Besiktas in fourth place.

Coming up next is the challenge of an opposing outfit who have only lost one of the last six meetings between the teams dating back to 2021.

Having picked up three victories and a draw from their most recent four home matches, Sunday's hosts will fancy their chances of securing a positive result here.

Kasimpasa fell to an annihilating 5-1 defeat against Trabzonspor when the sides locked horns at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadyumu two Fridays ago.

Goals from Enis Destan, Enis Bardhi and Filip Benkovic saw Kemal Ozdes's men trail by three at half time after which Bardi and Goktan Gurpuz added insult to injury before Claudio Winck pulled one back.

With five points picked up from their four matches this term, the Apaches sit 12th in the league standings, outside the top half only on goal difference.

Unbeaten in five of their last six away outings across all competitions, Sunday's visitors now set out to continue their recent resurgence on the road.

Team News

Kasimpasa's Claudio Winck has found the back of the net in each of his last two games and the Brazilian will be looking to deliver the goods once again.

Mortadha Ben Ouanes was named man-of-the-match in the most recent meeting between Saturday's opponents, making him one to keep an eye on here.

Twenty-two-year-old Oguz Aydin is ineligible to play any part in this one as he serves the final of his three-game suspension for Alanyaspor.

Emirhan Cavus will be pushing to make his debut for the hosts having had to settle for a place on the bench in each of his opening four matches.

Alanyaspor possible starting lineup:

Taskiran; Ozdemir, Aliti, Bayir, Hadergjonaj; Augusto, Richard, Novais, Karaca; Janvier, Eduardo

Kasimpasa possible starting lineup:
