Alanyaspor vs Samsunspor prediction 25.12.2023

• Competition: Super Lig
• Date: Monday, 25th December 2023
• Kickoff: 14:00 UK / 15:00 CET
• Venue: Kırbıyık Holding Stadyumu (Alanya)

Since their advancement to the Super Lig in 2016, Alanyaspor has largely been a solid contender. However, this season has been a bit of a struggle, with the team managing to garner only 17 points from the first 16 games, putting them just two points above the relegation zone. The primary issue plaguing Fatih Tekke’s team is an underperforming attack, which has resulted in a low score of only 15 goals to date. Fortunately, Alanyaspor’s defence has shown improvement recently, enabling them to secure victories in their last three matches. In their most recent game, they clinched a 3-1 victory on Besiktas’s home ground. Despite Besiktas nearly securing a point, Alanyaspor managed to score twice in the later stage of the second half, securing a win against one of Turkey’s top teams.

This season, Samsunspor made a return to the Super Lig. However, after only gaining 15 points from their first 16 matches, they now find themselves in the relegation zone. A positive result in their Monday afternoon match could rescue them from this precarious situation. Samsunspor’s issues mirror those of Alanyaspor, with both teams having only managed to score 18 goals thus far. Despite this, Samsunspor’s attack has shown signs of improvement, remaining undefeated in a four-game stretch within the last twenty days. In their most recent match, Samsunspor managed a 1-1 draw at home against Konyaspor.

Alanyaspor vs Samsunspor pick: Under 2.5 goals

In two of their last three matches, Alanyaspor had fewer than 2.5 goals. Meanwhile, Samsunspor failed to score more than two goals in four of their last five away games. Therefore, betting on under 2.5 goals would be the most sensible wager for this match.
