Our prediction for the Hatayspor vs Bodrumspor match
The "Star of the South" withdrew from the league following the tragic earthquake two seasons ago. Their return saw them finish in 15th place, which was a respectable result considering the circumstances. The "Green and Whites" earned their promotion to the Super League, but only after finishing fourth and advancing through a challenging playoff.
As a new team in the league, Bodrumspor was very active in the transfer market. They brought in players such as Albanians Seferi and Ajeti, as well as George Pușcaș and Dimitrov. Hatayspor also strengthened their squad, notably signing the experienced Cameroonian forward Vincent Aboubakar, who left Beşiktaş amid controversy last season.
Despite numerous transfers, Hatayspor's poor start led to the dismissal of both the sporting director and the coach after a series of disappointing results (three draws and a loss to Kasımpaşa). A potential signing of Utkin fell through due to the management shake-up. The experienced Çalımbay has now taken over as head coach and managed a 0-0 draw in his debut against Alanyaspor. Bodrumspor managed a win over Konyaspor, but suffered defeats against Gaziantep, Eyüpspor, and Göztepe. In September, they lost 0-1 to İstanbulspor.
