Genclerbirligi vs Alanyaspor Prediction & Betting tips
On Sunday, Genclerbirligi visits Alanyaspor, a match between two teams fighting against relegation. Genclerbirligi has been unbeaten for ten games. Will they succeed to continue this series?
Genclerbirligi :
Genclerbirligi had a bad season and was a long time last week. They started the season with coach Umit Ozat, but soon replaced him with coach Mesut Bakkal. Also under Bakkal was not good and the board decided to re-appoint Umit Ozat as a coach. It’s all much better now under Ozat. With 26 points they are now out of the relegation zone. Although the coach lost his first game, his team has been unbeaten in the league for ten games. Last team from Ankara played 1-1 with a former leader Basaksehir. Abdul Khalili was responsible for the equalizer with a nice free kick.
Genclerbirligi did not play very well, but that seems logical to me, his opponent. Against the slightly weaker opponents, Genclerbirligi has played remarkably well in recent weeks. For example, they managed to create a lot of chances against Goztepe and left a good impression.
Coach Umit Ozat is of course satisfied with his players: ‘We could play a little better, but let’s stay realistic. I am of course satisfied with a point. Of course not losing is fun, but I find it more important to win our direct competitors. Alanyaspor is that and that is why we have to win at home.
Alanyaspor :
It does not go so well with Alanyaspor. The team from Alanya is in the fifteenth position. Because of a better goal difference, they are just not in the relegation zone. After the winter break, they had appointed Hikmet Karaman as a coach. Under Karaman things did not go well, because they only knew one of their six games to win. The rest were all lost. That’s why they went for a new coach again. It is up to coach Mesut Bakkal to save Alanyaspor from relegation. Bakkal was also coach at Genclerbirligi this season. It did not go that well.
Last week they went 2-1 against Trabzonspor for their own audience. Alanyaspor actually started the game a lot and therefore quickly took the lead. They knew how to create reasonable chances, but they failed to pass the goalkeeper. This is often seen with them. Since the departure of Vagner Love, Alanyaspor misses a killer in the front. Previously it was Love who stung every ball. With Emre Akbaba and Junior Fernandes they certainly have strong players in the front, but they are not goal machines like Love. Yet they manage to find the net almost every game.
