Inconsistent teams meet in Istanbul
Kasimpasa SK welcome Trabzonspor to Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadi, Turkiye in the Super Lig 2026-2027 on Saturday looking to make up for their recent struggles against Trabzonspor. The home side are unbeaten at home in their last seven in all competitions, winning five and drawing two, but have failed to take maximum points from either of their previous two home games against Trabzonspor.

Trabzonspor to edge a close game
Form
Kasimpasa SK are the more consistent of these two teams having won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five. Trabzonspor have been more up and down with two wins and three losses in their most recent five.
Tactics
Emre Belozoglu, who was appointed Kasimpasa SK's coach on 5 December 2025, has employed a compact 4-2-3-1 setup. They don't usually dominate the ball or play high up the field, instead, they stay in a low-to-mid block and attempt to counter quickly when they win the ball back.
Fatih Tekke's Trabzonspor also line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, but they stretch the play wide and press higher up the pitch. The visitors will try to get at Kasimpasa and win the ball back quickly after losing it.
Odds
Backing Trabzonspor to win this game makes sense on the face of it. Kasimpasa SK are 4.0, which makes it seem like the oddsmakers are on the visitor's side. This game is likely to be a tight away-favorite win, not a sure thing.
