Trabzonspor vs Samsunspor prediction 11.01.2024

• Competition: Süper Lig
• Date: 11th January 2024
• Kickoff: 17:00 UTC / 18:00 CET
• Venue: Papara Park

On Thursday evening, Trabzonspor will host Samsunspor, a team facing relegation, with the aim of securing three points to solidify their position in the Turkish top flight’s top three.

The hosts have been struggling to regain their 2021-22 season’s form when they broke their 38-year league title dearth. Abdullah Avcı’s team ended up in 6th place during the 2022-23 season and currently, they are not in the race for the championship, trailing ten points behind the leader.

Samsunspor is not having a good season either. After winning the second division last season and earning a promotion, the team, also known as The Lightning, is likely to return to the First League. Currently, Markus Gisdol’s team is struggling, sitting in the red zone with 18 points from 18 games. They have only managed to secure a win in one out of their last three games.

Trabzonspor vs Samsunspor Betting Tips: Home team to win

Trabzonspor hasn’t experienced much success in recent league home games, being unable to secure a win in the last two. However, it’s been over a year since they’ve lost three consecutive matches at this stadium. Additionally, they have a solid track record against Samsunspor at this location, with victories in the last four matches and an impressive aggregate score of 12-1.

The greatest downfall for Samsunspor this season has been their performance in away games. To put it into perspective, only Insanbulspor has had a poorer away performance than Samsunspor in this division this season. Markus Gisdol’s team has managed to gather only four points from their nine away matches up to this point, having lost seven. We predict that Thursday’s match will result in yet another loss for them.
