Giresunspor our favourites to win
Our first pick for this match upsets the H2H record between these teams as it favours Atlay. The visitors have lost only three times to Giresunspor, winning seven times and bagging three draws in 13 meetings. However, the hosting manager (Hakan Keles) boasts one victory over the visiting manager, Mustafa Denizli. And despite being 16th out of 20 teams on home record, the hosts have has a strong showing defensively, leaking 7 and scoring 8 goals in 8 home fixtures so far. Away from home, Atlay has been weak defensively, losing four matches, bagging two draws and two wins. A big worry for Atlay is a leaking defence that has conceded 14 goals in 8 trips so far.
Few goals to be scored
Our second pick for this match settles on a low scoreline. The visitors will not be an easy opponent given that they have always reigned supreme in this fixture. Also noting how defensive the hosts have been on home soil, we expect them to play a defensive match that will keep Atlay at bay. The visitors are wary of their weak defence and so, we also expect them to take a cautious approach against a side that keeps getting better.
Draw at half-time
Our last prediction for Giresunspor vs Atlay is a draw at the break. This should be an easy game for the hosts given their good run of form that has seen them lose only once in the last six matches. However, a poor record against the struggling Atlay is why we suspect a cautious approach with no breakthrough in the first half.
Match Preview: Giresunspor Look to End Bad Spell against Atlay
It seems a fixture between Giresunspor and Atlay has always ended in favour of the visitors. But can the hosts end that poor record in this vital fixture? First off, both teams are struggling and home advantage is a great opportunity for Giresunspor in their quest to move further up the table. Only one point separates these teams that currently sit 14th and 16th respectively on the Super Lig table. But looking at recent matches, the hosts look better offensively and defensively than Atlay. The hosts have DWWWL while Atlay has LLDDL in the last five matches. Moreover, Atlay has 2D and 3L in the last five trips, a poor away record that could put them in trouble against the hosts who 4W and 1L in the last five home games.
