Match Prediction: Bodrum vs Sivasspor
Last season, "The Greens" finished fourth in the First League, and after winning the promotion playoffs, they earned the right to debut in the top division of Turkish football. This is their first time representing their modest province at this level. On the other hand, "The Brave" of Sivasspor were regulars in European competitions from 2020 to 2022 but have seen a decline in form. They ended the spring in seventh place in the standings.
Under the management of Bülent Uygun, Bodrum has not made any significant improvements this season. Though there was a three-match winning streak, they’ve won no more matches in the Süper Lig. Last round, they lost 2-3 to the champion, Galatasaray, but they put up a good fight.
Sivasspor, under Volkan Demirel, like most top-flight newcomers, is fighting for survival but has struggled to secure wins. Since September, they have failed to win, with all three of their last matches (and five of the last six) ending in losses.
Bodrum averages 0.7 goals per match, conceding 1.5 goals per game. Sivasspor has a slightly better ratio, with 1.3 goals scored and 1.6 goals conceded per match.
