The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Gençlerbirliği are in the 11th position while the guesting Konyaspor worry at 14th.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
