Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Gençlerbirliği in 11th and Antalyaspor in 12th place.
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.
Gençlerbirliği form and stats
4-4-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Super Lig numbers at home for Gençlerbirliği so far this season.
Gençlerbirliği are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Galatasaray. Before that, Gençlerbirliği had a home game versus Ankaragücü which ended with a victory 1-0.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

Gençlerbirliği are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 12 games. On the other hand, Gençlerbirliği have conceded 15 goals.
Antalyaspor form and stats
4-3-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Antalyaspor in their Super Lig matches away.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Turkish Cup home defeat versus Alanyaspor with 0-1 on the scoreboard. A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Fenerbahçe in the Super Lig.
Late heartbreak for Antalyaspor in the Alanyaspor match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found three similar matches played by Antalyaspor in our archives, and the results are: one win for Antalyaspor, one draw and one defeat.
Antalyaspor have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 12 league away games 12 goals have been scored.
