LiontipsGoztepe vs Antalyaspor. Prediction and bets on the match of the Turkish championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Goztepe have exceeded all expectations this season. The team is in fourth place in the Turkish Super League, ahead of Besiktas and Eyupspor by one point. Last season, the hosts played in the First League, so few expected such a game from the team from Izmir. The last home matches went well for the newcomer to the top division - they managed to achieve major victories over Rizespor (3:0) and Kasimpasa (5:0). Goztepe did not disappoint on the road either - they managed to put up a fight with the current champion, Galatasaray (1:2), and also beat Erzurumspor (1:0) in the cup.
Disqualifications and injuries
Romulo will be out with too many yellow cards, Isaac Kole with a knee injury, and David Fofana is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- None of the hosts' last six matches have ended in a draw
- Goztepe have not conceded in their last four winning matches
Probable line-up: Lees - Bille, Gunter, Heliton, Bokele, Silva - Matsuki, Miroshi, Dennis - Tijanic, Santos.
Current form
Antalyaspor have failed to surprise anyone this season and continue to be in the middle of the league table. The team currently occupies 13th place in the Super League and is five points ahead of the relegation zone. At this stage of the season, this is a very solid handicap, but we cannot relax. The visitors have completely failed the last three rounds of the championship, losing without a chance to Gaziantep (0:2), Eyüpspor (1:4) and Trabzonspor (0:5). The only joyful event was the victory in the cup over Kocaelispor (3:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Erdogan Yeşilyurt and Burak Ingenç will miss the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has lost three of its last four matches.
- The visitors have suffered dry defeats in their last two away matches
Tentative lineup: Pirich - Vural, Tallison, Ozturk, Balci - Rakip, Kaluzinski, Petrusenko - Larsson, Zamudio, van de Streck

3.80Tip and bets
The hosts have shown excellent results this season and are one of the main discoveries of the Turkish Super League. The team level of play did not fall in the winter either - in the last home matches they managed to defeat Rizespor and Kasimpasa. We believe that Antalyaspor will not be able to hold out in Izmir either, but the visitors' recent results do not inspire confidence.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1) on Goztepe for 1.88
Bet on total
The hosts play quite effectively and are the most scoring team in the league, not counting the leaders, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. The club fully demonstrated the power of its attack line, scoring five goals against Kasimpasa in the last round. The visitors conceded five unanswered goals from Trabzonspor in their match. The statistics allow us to expect a productive match.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.75
Bet on corners
Goztepe are the favourites and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on corners at Goztepe for 1.88
