Antalyaspor returned to domestic action with a hard-fought 2-1 home victory over Alanyaspor. It seemed as if they were heading for a share of the spoils until Adolfo Gaich scored the winner in the 81st minute.
This was consolation for their heavy 4-0 defeat against Galatasaray before the international window. They have won four of their last nine games in the Turkish Super Lig and have a 3-2 record in the last five.
Head coach Emre Belozoglu will be keen on seeing his team secure their second consecutive league win. The chances of doing that are very high, as they set foot at Antalya Stadyumu. They are unbeaten in five games, recording three wins and two draws. Notably, they are riding a three-match winning streak.

Formation: 4-3-3

Samsunspor
Form: LDWDL
Samsunspor, on the other hand, has struggled for consistency. Heading into this clash, they have won just one of their last five games in the Turkish Super Lig (D2, L2). This is a team that was recently on a two-match winning streak, beating Hatayspor and Konyaspor, without conceding a goal.
Before the international window, they managed to snatch a point from Fenerbahce after the match ended in a goalless draw at Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium. Instead of using that result as motivation, their return to league action was marked by a disappointing 2-0 home defeat against Kasimpasa last Saturday.
The Red Lightning will hope to get back to winning ways, however, their performance in unfamiliar territory has left much to be desired. They have won just one of their last five games and are unbeaten in three, with their recent two games ending in stalemates.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Kocuk; Yavru, Cift, Van Drongelen, Bola; Ait Bennasser, Aydogdu; Kilinc, Ntcham, Schindler; Mouandilmadji

Expert Betting Tips
Draw No Bet - Samsunspor @ 1.83 with Bet365.
Antalyaspor has been impressive at home, and I'm not denying that, however, Samsunspor will prove to be a stern test. The visiting team has won two consecutive matches against Antalyaspor, and despite their recent struggles, I see them avoiding defeat in this one.
Total - over 2.5 @ 2.23 with 1xbet.
For my second prediction, I'm expecting a high-scoring affair. Both sides have been convincing in the final third and given that Antalyaspor has won each of their last three home league games by a 2-1 scoreline, suggests we will be in for a treat this Saturday.
Full-time Result - Draw @ 3.15 with Betway.
This can turn out to be a tight affair and with little to separate these two sides, I expect them to cancel each other in a score draw. Samsunspor has drawn four of their last seven away matches, making a draw here very likely.
