Prediction

  • Istanbulspor were beaten 1-0 by Alanyaspor last time out. Even against a team struggling like Alanyaspor and while playing at home, Istanbulspor looked fragile. They've lost 11 of their 15 games and it will take nothing short of a miracle for Yakin's team to survive this season.
  • Trabzonspor got an impressive 3-1 away win at Gaziantep last time out. Avci had been very critical of Baniya in recent weeks and used Mendy as a centre-back against Gaziantep and the youngster impressed. Trabzsonspor also created a plethora of chances and looked very strong all over the pitch.
  • Avci's team is very strong away from home and are likely to cruise to a victory here.
