Gaziantep

LDWLLL 📉

Gaziantep won’t want a repeat of their last result here after a 2-0 Super Lig loss in their previous game against Çaykur Rizespor.

In that game, Gaziantep had 56% possession and 14 shots on goal with 3 on target. On the other side, Caykur Rizespor got 20 shots at goal with 10 of them on target. Ali Sowe (77') and Ibrahim Olawoyin (95') scored for Çaykur Rizespor.

It’s not been often in recent games where Gaziantep have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The facts show that Gaziantep have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 games, leaking 10 goals on the way.

Coming into this clash, Gaziantep have left without a victory over Alanyaspor in their previous 2 league matches.

Alanyaspor

LLLWLD

Last time out, Alanyaspor drew 1-1 in the Super Lig tie with Kayserispor.

In that match, Alanyaspor managed 56% possession and 16 shots on goal with 1 of them on target. Kayserispor got 7 attempts on goal with 3 on target. Joseph Attamah (30' Own goal) and Ramazan Civelek (52') scored for Kayserispor.

The stats tell the story, and Alanyaspor have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 10 goals in all. Defensively, Alanyaspor can certainly do much better. With no two games being the same, we will just have to wait and see whether that trend will be maintained here in this game or not.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Alanyaspor:

• remain undefeated by Gaziantep in games played away from home for the previous 2 matches in the league.
• are without an away win for the past 5 matches in the league.

📰 Team News: Gaziantep

Arda Kızıldağ (unknown injury) and Muhammed Gümüşkaya (unknown injury) are not available for Gaziantep gaffer Selçuk İnan.

It seems likely that Gaziantep should line up in a 3-4-2-1 system for the game and select Mustafa Burak Bozan, Bruno Viana, Semih Guler, Anel Husic, Papa Alioune Ndiaye, Kacper Kozlowski, Emmanuel Boateng, Alexandru Maxim, Deian Sorescu, David Okereke and Halil Dervisoglu.

📋 Team News: Alanyaspor

From a largely full-strength group, there is just the sole fitness issue for the Alanyaspor boss João Pereira to be concerned with. Buluthan Bulut (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be playing here.

There’s a good chance that Alanyaspor might elect for a 3-4-2-1 system, giving starts to Ertugrul Taskiran, Fatih Aksoy, Fidan Aliti, Nuno Lima, Florent Hadergjonaj, Nicolas Janvier, Richard Coelho, Yusuf Özdemir, Sergio Córdova, Tonny Vilhena and Andraz Sporar.

🔮 Prediction

Our thinking is that Alanyaspor and Gaziantep should be able to score more than one goal each in what is shaping up to be a fairly even contest.

An eventful draw is therefore a real possibility, and we are expecting it to be very tight. We’re therefore predicting a great battle with a 2-2 score draw at the end of the 90 minutes.
