Sivasspor will look to arrest their alarming slide when they host Alanyaspor in round 19 of the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday.
The Yigidos enjoyed a solid start to the season, winning five of their first 11 league matches, but the victories have since dried up with just one win in their last six league outings.
We say: Sivasspor 1-1 Alanyaspor
Sivasspor and Alanyaspor are set for a closely fought encounter - with the home side struggling, while the visitors have been poor on the road, this matchup will most likely result in a low-scoring stalemate.

Two teams aiming to recover from disappointing league defeats in their opening games of 2025 face off on Sunday, as Trabzonspor host Antalyaspor in a Turkish Super Lig encounter.
The hosts suffered a narrow 2-1 loss to Samsunspor on January 4, while Antalyaspor endured a heavy 4-1 defeat against Eyupspor on the same day.
We say: Trabzonspor 2-1 Antalyaspor
Despite their inconsistencies, Trabzonspor's strong home form gives them the edge against an Antalyaspor side that are poor on the road, which is why we are predicting a win for the home side.

Undefeated Galatasaray travel to the Basaksehir Fatih Terim Stadium on Sunday to take on Istanbul Basaksehir, aiming to maintain their unbeaten run and extend their lead at the top of the Turkish Super Lig.
Sunday's derby game follows Wednesday's thrilling 2-2 Turkish Cup draw between both sides, where Gala fought back twice to avoid defeat.
We say: Istanbul Basaksehir 2-3 Galatasaray
Galatasaray's remarkable resilience and superior firepower, boosted by the likely return of Osimhen, should see them edge this encounter.
Basaksehir's solid home form and recent fighting spirit will keep it competitive, but Gala's quality should ultimately prevail in what will be a hard-fought derby.

Gaziantep will look to maintain their formidable home form as they host struggling Adana Demirspor at Gaziantep Stadium on Sunday in the Turkish Super Lig.
The hosts have steadily climbed the league standings and now find themselves far removed from relegation worries, while the visitors continue to languish at the bottom of the table.
We say: Gaziantep 2-0 Adana Demirspor
Gaziantep's impeccable home form makes them favourites against bottom-placed Adana Demirspor, with the hosts' eight-game unbeaten streak at Gaziantep Stadium telling the story that Adana's recent away resilience is unlikely to prevent another home triumph.
