The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Menemen Belediyespor are in the 11th position while the guesting Altınordu worry at 14th.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.

Belediyespor are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. For Altınordu most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Altınordu form and stats

There's been little loot from Altınordu's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 16 away games in the 1. Lig. Altınordu only have 1 win to counter their 9 defeats and 6 draws.

Altınordu had fun at their own home (Menemen Şehir Stadı) last time out, beating Giresunspor 3-1. H. Yener, Y. Ozan and A. Üner scored. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Bursaspor wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

The attacking power of Altınordu when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 16 league matches away. 23 goals have been conceded by Altınordu in these games.
