Alanyaspor

vs

Fatih Karagumruk

Preview

Alanyaspor

• Alanyaspor enter Sunday’s game with Fatih Karagumruk in mid-table Super Lig positions, 10th with 18 points from 16 games, while the visitors sit dangerously close to the relegation zone in 18th with only 9 points from the same number of games.
• This fixture represents an interesting tactical match-up as Joao Pereira’s possession-based philosophy will come up against Onur Can Korkmaz’s more direct and high-tempo style.
• Alanyaspor’s coach, who took over in March 2025, has instilled a 3-4-2-1 formation which is compact, structured and relies on his midfielders to control tempo and distribute the ball.
• Pereira’s men have been very solid at home this season, conceding only 3 goals in 7 home fixtures.
• Steve Mounie has come to the rescue with 4 goals in his last 5 games.

Fatih Karagumruk

• Korkmaz has shifted the team to a more direct style and one which looks to get bodies behind the ball when out of possession, with greyhound-like speed on the wings and a counter-attacking mentality.
• David Datro Fofana is Karagumruk’s top scorer in the Super Lig with 5 in 11 games and will always pose a threat.
• Korkmaz has recently added some bite to his attack with the pace and finishing of Andre Gray, who has 3 goals in Karagumruk’s last 5 matches.
• Fatih lost 3-0 to Genclerbirligi SK in the league, but thrashed Esenler Erokspor 5-2 in the Cup last time out.
