Two teams fighting at the bottom half of the Turkish Super Lig will meet on Saturday when Giresunspor make the journey to Antalyaspor.

The hosts are sitting just above the relegation zone right now, but a victory at the weekend would lead to them overtaking their opponents.

We say: Antalyaspor X-Y Giresunspor

Adana Demirspor vs. Ankaragucu (Saturday, 1.00pm)

Looking to pick up successive league wins for the first time this season, Ankaragucu take a trip to the New Adana Stadium to square off against Adana Demirspor on Saturday.

The Mavi Simsekler, on the other hand, head into the weekend as one of just two sides unbeaten on home turf this season and will set out to maintain this fine run.

We say: Adana Demirspor 2-0 Ankaragucu

Adana Demirspor have enjoyed a solid campaign this season and currently find themselves in the upper echelons of the league table. While we expect Ankaragucu to put up a fight, Montella's side have been near impenetrable on their home turf so far. We are backing Adana Demirspor to maintain their solid home form and claim a comfortable victory this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Konyaspor vs. Besiktas (Saturday, 1.00pm)

Off the back of three straight stalemates, Konyaspor welcome Besiktas to Konya Metropolitan Municipality Stadium on Saturday in round 19 of the 2022-23 Turkish Super Lig season.

Meanwhile, the away side make the trip this weekend aiming to pick up a seventh win in eight matches across all competitions and continue their recent upturn in form.

We say: Konyaspor 1-2 Besiktas

Besiktas have turned a corner in recent weeks and will fancy their chances against a Konyaspor side who have been largely unconvincing of late. We are anticipating a keenly-contested affair with the away side narrowly piping their hosts to all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Trabzonspor vs. Istanbul (Saturday, 4.00pm)

Following their humbling defeat earlier this week, Trabzonspor seek to steady the ship as they return to home soil on Saturday, when title-chasing Istanbul Basaksehir visit the Black Sea coast.

Separated by five points and three places in the Super Lig standings, the teams have experienced contrasting form of late, with the champions starting to stumble in defence of their crown; the visitors winning three of their last four games.

We say: Trabzonspor 1-1 Istanbul Basaksehir

Shaken by recent events and in desperate need of points to stop their descent of the table, all the pressure is on Trabzonspor this weekend. Met with a well-drilled side that has lost just three times all season, a share of the spoils would represent a decent result - and that is what they may have to settle for.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
