Preview: Adana Demirspor vs. Giresunspor - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Friday's Turkish Super Lig clash between Adana Demirspor and Giresunspor, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Adana Demirspor and Giresunspor open the weekend's action in the Turkish Super Lig when they meet at the Yeni Adana Stadium on Friday evening.

The hosts sit fourth in the table after a promising resumption to their season has kept them in touch near the top.

Imperious home form has helped Adana Demirspor maintain their position in a potential European qualification spot.

They have won all three games at home since the World Cup break, seeing off Fatih Karagumruk, Istanbulspor and Ankaragucu.

That has kept up their impressive record of not being beaten at home in the league all season so far.

Difficulties in beating sides in and around them is what has been costly for Vincenzo Montella's side though, as their three defeats during this campaign have all come against sides in the top five.

Therefore, they must ensure to take full advantage of their upcoming fixtures as they face three sides currently occupying the relegation places in their next five games, as well as their next opponents, Giresunspor, who sit 11th.

It has been a very underwhelming run of form for the visitors in their last three games, taking just one point in that time.

A defeat at home to Umraniyespor, who were bottom of the table at the time, was the low point, but they were also fortunate not to lose against 10-man Antalyaspor last week too, as they were saved by VAR, which disallowed what would have been a stoppage-time winner.

Winning just one of their six matches in all competitions since club football resumed is worrying, and slightly surprising, given that Giresunspor won their final three matches before the season was halted.

The break evidently came at the wrong time for Hakan Keles's side, as despite sitting in mid-table, they are just three points from danger as the bottom half of the Super Lig remains congested.

Team News

Benjamin Stambouli will miss out for Adana Demirspor after picking up his fourth booking of the season last time out.

However, they will be able to welcome back Younes Belhanda and Kevin Rodrigues from respective suspensions after the duo missed the win over Ankaragucu.

Wide man Yusuf Erdogan could make his debut for the club after joining from Trabzonspor earlier this week.

Vukan Savicevic will be suspended for Giresunspor after he was booked in their last encounter, while Sergen Picinciol remains out injured.

Unsavoury scenes near the end of their fixture with Antalyaspor saw Alper Uludag and Serginho booked, so both are now just one yellow card away from suspension.

Adana Demirspor possible starting lineup:
Ozbir; Svensson, Guler, Manev, Rodrigues; Sari, Inler, Ndiaye; Bjarnason, Akbaba, Belhanda

Giresunspor possible starting lineup:
Piri; Bilazer, Arias, Perez, Uludag; Campuzano, Mejia, Kuwas; Serginho, Sainz, Bajic


SM words green background

We say: Adana Demirspor 3-1 Giresunspor

This is a fixture that has produced goals in recent meetings, as 19 have been scored in the last six head-to-heads.

With the respective form of the two sides though, it looks like this result is only going one way.
