After only one defeat in the last six competitive encounters across all competitions between the two sides, we predict that Adana Demirspor will continue their one-sided historical head-to-head record on Saturday morning.

We say: Hatayspor 1-3 Trabzonspor
Unbeaten across their head-to-head history, we predict that Trabzonspor will remain undefeated at 3pm on Saturday, plunging Hatayspor into further relegation turmoil.

Ankaragucu vs. Gaziantep (Saturday, 1.00pm)
Two sides separated by only two places and three points in the Turkish Super Lig table go head to head on Saturday as Ankaragucu take on crisis club Gaziantep at Eryaman Stadium.
The hosts beat Konyaspor on Monday to move four points clear of the relegation zone, whereas Gaziantep are hovering perilously close to the bottom four courtesy of an alarming slide down the table which has led to widespread speculation regarding the future of manager Erol Bulut.
We say: Ankaragucu 2-1 Gaziantep
Gaziantep are a club in complete turmoil at the moment, and it is difficult to see their first win in 10 league games coming away to a team that has won three of their last four in all competitions.
These two sides have kept just five clean sheets between them all season and so goals are likely at both ends, but the form book points firmly towards a home win despite the two sides being separated by only three points in the table.

Antalyaspor vs. Umraniyespor (Saturday, 4.00pm)
Antalyaspor play host to Umraniyespor on Saturday afternoon with both clubs looking to boost their hopes of moving out of trouble in the Super Lig standings.
While the home side are only outside of the relegation zone on goal difference, the visitors sit bottom of the table after back-to-back defeats.
We say: Antalyaspor 1-1 Umraniyespor
While both clubs are aware of the boost that they would receive with a win, they also know that defeat could significantly harm their season. With that in mind, do not be surprised to see a low-scoring draw played out on the back of their respective spells without a victory.

Giresunspor vs. Galatasaray (Saturday, 4.00pm)
Turkish Super Lig leaders Galatasaray will attempt to extend their remarkable recent form when they travel to face Giresunspor at Cotanak Stadium on Saturday.
The visitors have won their last 12 matches across all competitions, and will be favourites to make that 13 against a Giresunspor side still searching for their first victory of 2023.
We say: Giresunspor 0-3 Galatasaray
Galatasaray look unstoppable at the moment, and all the signs point towards them making it a club-record 10 league wins in a row this weekend, securing the current crop's place in the illustrious history of the club.
Given the form both teams are in, and that the game pits the league's best defence against one of the league's worst attacks, this one looks destined to end in a Galatasaray win to nil.
