THE PREDICTION

Sitting just one point outside the bottom four, defending champions Istanbul Basaksehir return from the international break facing the fight of their lives to remain outside the relegation places and avoid the humiliation of going down as reigning champions. Recently, they have shown their capability of turning things around having lost just once in their last five league matches and have a golden opportunity to build on that at home against an out of form Yeni Malatyaspor. Currently on a winless run of ten successive Turkish Super Lig games, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the Yeni players already have half an eye on next season, which is a danger considering the visitors aren’t safe from relegation just yet. The hosts are in a position to take advantage of this, as they will be certain to work hard, fight for every loose ball and put in the maximum amount of effort required against Yeni with so much at stake for them in every league game going forward. With home advantage also in their favour, Istanbul Basaksehir may just have enough to edge victory and secure what would be a priceless three points to see them leapfrog Yeni in the table.
