Gaziantep vs Pendikspor prediction and betting tips on January 5, 2024
The Turkish Championship has the potential to become an attractive market for betting enthusiasts. We have prepared our exclusive forecast for the match between Gaziantep and Pendikspor.
Gaziantep
By Turkish standards, Gaziantep falls short of establishing itself as a strong mid-table team, lacking stability. The team currently occupies the 15th position in the championship, though the margin from the danger zone is a mere two points. In the last round, they managed to secure crucial three points through an away victory against direct competitor Karagümrük with a score of 3:0.
Minimal progress in results is evident, having garnered 4 points in two confrontations. However, one player will be forced to miss the upcoming match due to injuries.
Pendikspor
As a debutant in the Turkish Super League, Pendikspor predictably faced considerable challenges, currently holding the penultimate position in the league table. There are chances for salvation, as the gap from the 16th qualifying position is four points. In the last round, Pendikspor played to a draw at home against Ankaragücü, despite appearing better than their opponent. This halted a four-game losing streak. Preserving a place in the premier division will be exceedingly challenging.
Statistics and Match prediction
The upcoming clash features teams from the lower half of the league table, and the fixture may not generate much excitement even in Turkey. However, there is potential for earnings from such a match. As the statistics indicate, the teams have not played each other before, except for a friendly match last year, which Gaziantep won with a score of 2:0.
This promises to be a challenging and unpredictable battle. While Gaziantep holds a slight favoritism due to the home ground factor, any outcome is plausible in such a contest. Anticipating a game played on opposing courses, a logical wager here would be on both teams scoring.
