Genclerbirligi will be desperate to avoid a third league defeat on the trot in the Turkish top flight on Friday evening when the hosts return to their Eryaman Stadyumu for this upcoming encounter against Basaksehir following two recent defeats on the trot.
Recent losses at the hands of Konyaspor and Goztepe have contributed to the hosts occupying third from bottom in the Super Lig table and amongst the relegation zone ahead of this weekend’s domestic top flight action.
Indeed, results overall have been generally pretty ordinary for Volkan Demirel’s side as Genclerbirligi have managed to collect just two wins from their previous 11 games in the league with rare wins registered over Eyupspor and Besiktas, but this sequence of results also include being handed seven losses as well.
Basaksehir by contrast sit in 10th place in the Super Lig standings thanks to recent back-to-back wins against Antalyaspor 4-0 away from home along with last Friday’s 1-0 home win against Kocaelispor.
The visitors had previously stumbled to five games without a win in the Turkish top flight which included defeats to the likes of Konyaspor, Goztepe and Galatasaray, but their recent wins will give Nuri Şahin’s side a welcome boost and momentum heading into this encounter at the Eryaman Stadyumu.
Although Basaksehir possess an average looking away record of 2-1-3 8/5, the visitors will fancy their chances against a Genclerbirligi side who have managed just one home win so far this season.
The Betting Verdict
Basaksehir have won four of the last five meetings against Genclerbirligi and the visitors look capable of at least avoiding defeat here on Friday night.
The Pick :
Genclerbirligi 1-2 Basaksehir
