Altay Preview – Can Altay keep positive run going?
7th placed Altay will be seeking to break into the top six of 1 Lig on Friday afternoon when they entertain 5th placed Akhisarspor as the hosts look to benchmark themselves against one of the teams currently sitting in the play-off pack.
Altay’s play-off credentials have certainly been boosted by their current strong sequence of results which have seen the hosts put together an impressive 6-match run without defeat in the Turkish second tier which includes wins against Adanaspor, Altinordu and league leaders, Hatayspor, all of which have been registered on home turf at their İzmir Atatürk Stadyumu.
Indeed, Altay have lost just 1 of their last 10 matches overall but they’ll be up against an Akhisarspor outfit who’ll be desperate to retain their top six spot in 1 Lig, and as 5 of Altay’s last 6 matches overall have seen both teams score, the goals market may be a good option here.
Akhisarspor Preview – Can Akhisarspor also maintain form?
The visitors are also in similarly solid form as their hosts, Altay, as they’ve put together a 5-match unbeaten run in 1 Lig which includes winning 4 of these last 5 matches that have helped lift Akhisarspor up into the top six of the second tier.
Recent wins against Giresunspor, Eksisehirspor, Osmanlispor and Adana Demirspor have helped transform Akhisarspor’s situation from being a top half team to serious contenders for the play-offs in 1 Lig, and another three points here in this Friday’s clash at Altay would see them jump into 2nd place and one of the automatic promotion spots.
Plenty of incentive then for Akhisarspor for this upcoming clash and having won their last 3 away matches on the trot at Hatyaspor 3-2, 2-1 at Eksisehirspor and a 3-2 win at Adana Demirspor (all of which have seen both teams score), the visitors will also be in confident mood.
3 of Akhisarspor’s last 4 matches overall have seen both teams score too.
