Prediction
Even though it’s hard to tell the two apart, we think Istanbul Başakşehir and Alanyaspor should both get enough chances to score.
With a good chance of a draw, this one will be interesting to watch. As a result, we’re backing a close game that ends in a draw after 90 minutes.

Team News
With a fully healthy team to choose from, Alanyaspor manager Francesco Farioli will be relieved not to have any fitness concerns going into this game.
Emre Belözolu, manager of Istanbul Başakşehir, has no fitness concerns to report ahead of this match because the team is fully fit and ready to play.
However, until he gets used to his new team, Yanal may prefer a gradual evolution to a radical change in formation.
Emre’s Basaksehir strategy for every Super Lig game in 2022-23 was a 4-3-3, and it’s likely to be the same for Friday’s game at the Kirbiyik Holding Stadium.
When the two teams met in September, Serdar Gurler scored one goal. The wide attacker, who ranks second in the number of goals the Istanbul team has scored this season, is likely to start for the 14th time this season.
