Alanyaspor vs Samsunspor: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Antalya finished 13th with 45 points last season. Not much has changed: they remain in the lower part of the table but are a safe distance from the relegation zone. Trabzonspor were held to a draw, but then Alanyaspor lost to Kasimpasa. In the cup this week, they suffered a 0-3 defeat by Besiktas in the quarterfinals.
Samsunspor were the main revelation of last season, collecting 64 points—only Galatasaray and Fenerbahce had more. However, a decline was expected, especially after coach Reis, the architect of their success, left. As a result, they failed to qualify for the Europa League, and in the Conference League in March, the Turks lost to Rayo Vallecano. Domestically, they now have as many wins as losses, and quite a few draws. Even so, they managed to beat both Eyupspor and Besiktas in April. However, they were eliminated from the cup by Trabzonspor, albeit on penalties.
Hagi Jr. and company average 1.17 goals scored and concede exactly the same per match. Fink’s side now have slightly worse stats: 1.2 goals scored and 1.3 conceded per game.
