Saturday's Turkish Super Lig predictions including Alanyaspor vs. Trabzonspor

Samsunspor vs. Bodrumspor (Saturday, 10.30am)

Samsunspor will hope to arrest their recent slump in the Turkish Super Lig when they welcome Bodrumspor to the Samsun 19 Mayis Stadium on Saturday.

The Red Lightning are winless in their last two league matches, and have since dropped to third place in the table, eight points behind league leaders Galatasaray who have played one fewer game.

We say: Samsunspor 2-1 Bodrumspor

Samsunspor's recent struggles and their home form reduces their claim as strong favourites for this clash, but we believe that they will still come out with a win here as they are facing a side struggling with confidence and goalscoring.

Adana Demirspor vs. Konyaspor (Saturday, 1.00pm)

Still in search of their first win of the 2024-25 Turkish Super Lig season, Adana Demirspor host Konyaspor at the New Adana Stadium on Saturday.

The hosts have played 12 matches in the current campaign, and have lost 10 times and drawn twice, which has left them 10 points adrift of safety.

We say: Adana Demirspor 0-2 Konyaspor

Both sides are in difficult moments right now, but 16 games without a win for the hosts suggests that they are in a deeper rut, and we expect that trend to continue this weekend in a relatively comfortable win for the visitors.

Istanbul vs. Goztepe SK (Saturday, 4.00pm)

Istanbul Basaksehir will hope to halt their poor run when they host Goztepe SK at Basaksehir Fatih Terim Stadyumu in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday evening.

The Grey Owls have not won a game in close to two months, playing 10 matches in that period across all competitions, losing five and drawing five.

We say: Istanbul Basaksehir 1-1 Goztepe SK

Despite their league struggles, Basaksehir have held strong on home soil, recording a draw in their last four home matches across all competitions, and we believe that it will be another stalemate against Goztepe who are yet to convince that they have turned their away form around for good.

Alanyaspor vs. Trabzonspor (Saturday, 4.00pm)

Alanyaspor will hope to end their five-match winless streak in the Turkish Super Lig when they host Trabzonspor at the Bahcesehir Okullari Stadyumu on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, will be hoping to build on a confidence-boosting victory over Adana Demirspor last time out.

We say: Alanyaspor 1-1 Trabzonspor

Trabzonspor's last win was great, but it leaves little indication of where they are given that they faced the worst team in the league, which is why we are predicting a stalemate in this clash, considering that the visitor's away form has not been great, nor has the host's recent home form.
