There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the 1. Lig table so far. Here's the Altay - Giresunspor latest:
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Giresunspor have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Altay form and stats
Altay, who have the the best goal difference (+7) at home in 1. Lig, have collected seven points from their first three 1. Lig games here at Bornova Doğanlar Stadı, a promising start. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Altay after consecutive victories at their own ground.
The fans are hoping that Altay will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the 1. Lig game against Altnordu (placed 4th). Before that, Altay had a home game versus Adana Demirspor which ended with a victory 1-0.

Giresunspor form and stats
Things could have gone better for Giresunspor in their 1. Lig away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
Impressive finishing from E. Akdağ, I. Baldé (2) and M. Diarra secured the home win 4-3 against Adanaspor in their previous game. Before that, Giresunspor travelled to Osmanlıspor and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Adanaspor was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
