Antalyaspor vs Denizlispor Prediction & Betting tips
End your career in Antalya, why not? Nuri Sahin, a former Turkish national player and ex-Werderan, thought that too during this transfer period. With Lukas Podolski, Sidney Sam and Nuri Sahin, three former Bundesliga players are now represented in the Antalyaspor squad. So far, all three players have not been seen on the field together.
Trainer Tamer Tuna justified this with the fitness deficits of the “oldies”. On Monday evening Antalyaspor will conclude the third matchday of the Süper Lig with the home game against Denizlispor. As can be seen from the listings of the best bookmakers, the red and whites from Antalya are the favorites.
A prognosis on the red-whites is definitely recommended after the strong performance against Besiktas Istanbul. The guests from Denizli won a point last week against last year’s runner-up from Trabzon, but Göztepe handled them 5-1 on the first match day.
It remains to be seen in the next few weeks whether Denizlispor’s roller coaster ride from last season will continue. On Monday evening at the match between Antalyaspor vs. Denizlispor didn’t do much for a forecast in favor of the black and green guests.
Antalyaspor:
A few years ago, Antalyaspor took a large financial risk with numerous well-known transfers. One of the few stars who really knew how to convince was Samuel Eto’o. The former offensive star scored a total of 58 points (44 goals, 14 assists) in his 77 appearances in the red-white dress. But since Eto’o left, the team has been restructured.
In the meantime, Antalyaspor has found its way back on the road to success. After relegation was set as the primary goal year after year, the goal has been adjusted for this season. The red and whites want to go to Europe. Coach Tamer Tuna can fall back on a well-rehearsed squad that was upgraded again in the summer.
In addition to the former Turkish international Nuri Sahin, Serdar Gürler and Dever Orgill came to Antalya. However, there were also some serious departures to cope with. Sangare, Blanco, Angelo and Celustka all left the team. As Antalyaspor’s first two games of the season show, those departures will have to be compensated.
Last week in Istanbul there was an important and – according to the course of the game – well deserved points at Besiktas. Although Antalyaspor was far behind, they were never inferior to the alleged favorites from Istanbul. With the point gain in their luggage, the red and whites want to remain unbeaten at the end of the third day of the game.
In the first two games of the season, Tamer Tuna waived the starting line-up of players like Sahin, Podolski and Sam. It is quite possible that one of the three former Bundesliga players will start in the starting line-up on Monday evening. With Serdar Gürler and Jean-Armel Drole, there are only two long-term failures in the Red-Whites squad.
Denizlispor:
In order to establish itself as a Süper Lig club in the long term, Denizlispor once again invested a lot of money this summer and brought in seven new players. Including Neven Subotic (Union Berlin) and Marvin Bakalorz (Hannover 96). In addition, the new season will be tackled with Croatian coach Robert Prosinecki. After a messed up season opener, a surprising point win followed recently.
The Black-Greens had fought a draw against Trabzonspor last week. At no time was Denizlispor clearly inferior, but defied the previous year’s runner-up over long distances. Above all, the performance of the defense was praiseworthy, which after the 1: 5 against Gaziantep kept the clean slate against the strongest offensive of the last season.
There is no telling how the Black-Greens will present themselves in Antalya. In terms of performance, Denizlispor already had a real roller coaster ride last season, especially in the away games. Denizli had an away record of 4-6-7 in the final table. This calendar year there was not a single victory for Denizlispor in ten away games across all competitions.
It would be all the more important for the Black-Greens to score points at the away game in Antalya. Robert Prosinecki will also have to do without his attacking star Hadi Sacko at the end of the third day of play. The black-green winger was sent off last week and is therefore not available in Antalya.
No major changes are expected in Denizlispor’s starting line-up anyway. New signing Neven Subotic received a license, but is unlikely to be in the starting line-up yet.
