Eyupspor (home)
- Atila Gerin took over Eyupspor in January 2026 but has so far failed to get a turnaround from a team who have lost four on the bounce and taken just one point from their last five Super Lig games.
- Eyupspor have won just three of their 14 home games in the Super Lig 2025/2026, scoring only 11 goals in that run.
- Eyupspor are 17th with 22 points from as many matches.
Samsunspor (away)
- Samsunspor, by contrast, are in decent form and are pushing for European qualification after Thorsten Fink took over in mid-February 2026.
- The visitors have won two, drawn one and lost two in their last five Super Lig fixtures.
- With 36 points from 28 games, the visitors sit 7th in the table.
Head-to-Head
Samsunspor have won three of the four head-to-head meetings between these two clubs in the Super Lig 2025/2026.
Key Players
- Eyupspor are a typical ‘possession footy’ team in that they play the ball through the thirds and attempt to control the pace of play.
- However, this can leave them vulnerable to the counter, which is exactly what Samsunspor will look to exploit.
- Fink's system is a pragmatic setup that allows the Black Sea team to sit compact and defend as a unit before exploding forward with pace on the counter attack or from set-pieces.
-
Key players:
- Carlo Holse is an expert at taking care of the latter, and he has seven goals from 26 Super Lig appearances.
- Eyupspor’s main scorer, Umut Bozok, has four goals in 27 appearances in the same competition.
Betting Insights
- Samsunspor have won four, drawn five and lost five of their 14 away Super Lig 2025/2026 matches, conceding 22 goals in total.
- Eyupspor has been very poor at home all season, which leaves the odds for an away victory at 1.9 looking tempting.
- Over 2.5 goals is priced at 2.0 in this fixture, while Both Teams to Score - No is available at 1.91.
Prediction
With Samsunspor in the superior league position, dominating the head-to-head record and Eyupspor in terrible form, I’m backing the away team to take all three points on Monday .
