Samsunspor vs Kayserispor prediction and betting tips on January 25, 2024
Game Prediction
Turkey has a rather unique schedule for its football matches. This will be evident in the upcoming week as well, with the 22nd round of the Super Lig taking place. One of the late matches, on Thursday evening, will feature Samsunspor and Kayserispor. The website's readers are offered a forecast for this match on January 25, 2024.
Samsunspor is trying to establish itself at a new level
The "Red Lightning" had a relatively good run in the mid-80s when they managed to secure the "bronze" twice in a row, and right after that, they reached the cup final. However, they are now newcomers to the Super Lig, returning, albeit from the first place, after an 11-year hiatus. It's clear that the primary goal now is not to fall back. Initially, things didn't go well (2 points in 9 rounds), but the arrival of Gisdol in the fall gradually yielded results. They even started winning, mainly at their home ground, climbing the table. They managed to stop the motivated title fight of Fenerbahce, securing a 1-1 draw against the Istanbul giants.
Kayserispor is experiencing "rollercoaster" form this season
"The Stars of Anatolia" haven't shown much throughout their history, with the only bright exception being the country's cup in 2008. In the championship, it was another modest ninth place. Currently, successful periods alternate with failures. For example, from late October to early December, they had six wins and a draw against Adana Demirspor. However, everything turned around before the New Year, with a 3-4 loss to Fenerbahce. After that, they were eliminated from the cup, losing to Genclerbirligi. In the national championship, all five subsequent rounds were lost. Even in the last match against the main outsider, Istanbulspor, they lost by conceding almost in the final attack.
Previous matches
If we exclude the 2014/2015 season in the First League, in recent years, "Stars of Anatolia" have generally been stronger. After an 8-year hiatus this summer, the team once again lost to "Red Lightning," this time 1-2 away.
